DIY: father’s day key chains …

June 10, 2013

Father’s day is this Sunday, and if you are scrambling for a quick and easy DIY Father’s day gift idea, I have a fun one to share with you!

The children and I made these fun Father’s Day keychains for their daddy!  We spelled out things like, “I Love Dad” and “Best Dad!”

They were simple to make and the children loved to be involved in the project!

For the full tutorial on how to make these Father’s Day key chains, head on over to my step by step post for Hellobee blog!

DIY: color-blocked painted stick necklaces tutorial

May 6, 2013

My children just love to collect things, rocks, sticks, bugs, you name it!

We thought it would be fun to put some of their collections to use, and make some color-blocked painted stick necklaces.

My cute little Norah loved the project, and got down to business painting her stick.

It turned out rather cute!  This would also be a fun gift for your children to give for Mother’s Day!

Be sure to check out the full step by step tutorial for the necklaces over on Less than Perfect Parents!  I am a new contributor over there for kid’s craft ideas.
