Fall Arts and Crafts

I'm behind... not just on blogging, but blogging as well... I have to include this as it made me SMILE.

Well, we woke up and were feeling crafty with nothing on our agenda so I decided we would do leaf art.  We used coffee filters...

1.  color coffee filters with washable markers...

2.  spray coffee filters with water... it makes the colors run together... looking like fall colored leaves

Yes, Livie is wearing tights and wings... earlier the ensemble also inlcuded a pink stocking cap!!

3.  next, trace a real leaf or freehand a leaf and cut out.  I don't have any pictures of our final project because this is what happened next...

DADDY CAME HOME

and taught us other uses for our spray bottle

We also made leaf rubbings.   Ahh fall is fun!
