1. Needlecraft
I am delighted to have some time in the evenings after Rowan goes to bed to embroider, cross stitch, knit, and crochet. I just finished my first cross stitch and am about to embark upon another (the "wild rumpus" scene from Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are, for Rowan's future room). I also plan on doing this hat for Rowan for the colder Ohio winters:
Yes, that's a carved butternut squash. A squash that is now awesome!
3. Rowan is learning his colors and is starting to really love coloring. I bet he'll appreciate the tactile aspect of finger painting even more! I am going to be creating colored iced cubes for his bath fun time and making my own finger paints for him.
Do you DIY? What are you making these days?
Where do you get the pattern for that hat!!?? My Dad has a beard and I am sure my nephew would love this so he can look like his Papa!! My daughters thought it was awesome when I showed them the picture :) Also the fingerpaint recipe looks so easy and fun! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteI found it on (that all-things-awesome site) etsy! They sell the pattern or the already made hat:
