Summer Crafting with Mom

Since Mom and Ron were cruising in Alaska for part of our visit, I wanted to do something relaxing with her when she got back. I found some very cute projects on Pinterest, so Mom and I had a very fun craft day!

Our projects involved lots of painting.

  

Day 1 of Crafting  was a success!

Project 1 - Flag Blocks

I love all projects made from 2x4s!

They found a great place on our island!

Project 2 - Firecrackers!

(And they remind me of Rice Krispies - hilarious!)

These turned out great!

Project 3 - Eat

Since we can't make a penny covered bar quite yet,

this will have to do!

I'm in LOVE!

I did bring my herbs in the car to Chicago,
then back to NY.
They're hanging in there!
(And look like they might be growing, too!)

I had a great time back in Schaumburg hanging out with the family! I felt so relaxed AND productive. I still can't believe I got all of those projects done! Now it's time to figure out what Mom and I are going to create for Christmas...
