Happy Craft

When I first saw this craft on Meg's blog back in May,  I squealed and called my girls over to the computer and said, "let's make this over the summer!"  

I have high standards for crafts:

1. It has to be pretty.  (And I'm picky.)

2. It has to be fairly easy. (Less mess is best.)

3. It has to be finishable. (Is that a word?)

4. It has to be fun (and worth the effort.)

This craft met all of my criteria.  Yay!

The first night of my Summer Bible study I found out that we were going to make that very same craft!  Whoohoo!  We spread it out over a few weeks to allow time for the paints to dry n' such.

Because I cannot stand to start a project and not finish it am task oriented I was able to finish my project this week.  Out of 20 ladies, three of us stayed on task and finished.  Call me unsociable.  I call it done.  :)

When I brought it home my girls were even more excited to start their own pieces of art.

Isn't it fun?!
