Crafty Mom is at it again!

I have been busy-ing myself with lots of easy to do crafts these days. I feel so peaceful and calm when I am crafting...well, when I am doing it with my girls it is a little more stressful, but I do want to instill in them a love of crafts so it is worth the mental insanity of glitter and glue everywhere for what will hopefully turn into a lifelong love of creativity for them.

This first picture is some practice ornaments I did for the craft I am leading for all the 4th grade girls at Evie's school (about 35, its a small, private school) on Friday for a christmas party some of us mom's put together for them. It's a glass ornament that I put ribbon on with double stick tape and then glitter in between the ribbons. I looped a little candycane charm on it and hung it by a ribbon. Easy and cute...I think the girls will enjoy it. I got all the supplies ready this morning, this is surprisingly on top of life for me! Here is the simple teacher gift I am having the girls make. It is a box letter of the teacher's last name. The girls painted the sides, decoupaged paper on the front and back, and then decoupaged christmas words on it...the B is Mady's and the E is Sarah's. I think they turned out cute and they were a pretty easy project for the girls to do all on their own after I prepped it with the cutting.

And this is just for Wordless Wednesday humor...i walked in to the bathroom to find this:

Yes, those are polly pockets drowning in a sea of water and hair elastics! Hahahahahaha! I have no idea why, I decided not to ask. :)
