Art on the shelf this week
Art on the shelf this week
Here are two activities that I have out on the shelf for use this week, both having to do with leaves.
Because we dont have one of those cool rainbow stamp pads, I chose to use paint for making multicolored leaves. We have a foam leaf stamp (good because it can be washed off after), a small paint brush, a jar for washing the brush after each color is applied and a sponge for brush dabbing and mess wiping. My daughters just dip the brush into the paint and apply to various areas of the stamp.
The leaves are very colorful and different every time paint is applied onto the stamp. I supplied large paper so that the stamp could be used multiple times.
Our playstand is set up for fall and it is the perfect spot for the googly eyed leaves I saw over at The Magic Onions last week. They are so simple and fun to make that I set up a tray for making them on the activity shelf.
Weve been collecting and pressing leaves. I added some to the tray along with googly eyes, a hole punch (for a mouth) a small container of glue, and a small brush for applying the glue. We have these little leaf peepers all over the house!

Aprils No Good Very Bad Week
Aprils No Good Very Bad Week
This has been the week from H E Double Hockey Sticks! Some of it my own fault, much of it the fault of the local electric company.
I have not been able to knit a single stich on Trellis sinse last Sunday. I NEED to finish this sweater by Monday so that I can start another - I need to make 3 by Christmas.
I also want to knit a couple Branching Out scarves for Christmas - and something extra for my boss.
I have a birthday party for two this weekend.
I want to take a good, long nap.
