I have each of the grandkids one night of the week Monday through Thursday. Thursday is Emma‘s crafty time. She painted a wooden ornament from Hobby Lobby and stenciled for the first time. I think she did an excellent job! #kidsactivities #kidscrafting #kidsart #kidsartclass #christmasornaments
This is how I bulk cut door hangers with a jigsaw. I stacked three 4’ x 4’ revolution plywood and clamped them down on all four sides. Then I took my jigsaw and cut out all 15 in just over an hour. I still had room left for a 20 inch stack of three to make 18 signs total. Bam! Now to get sanding a little and start painting!🎨🖌️

Lydia is one of my grandchildren who comes over and has arts/crafts with me one night a week Monday through Thursday for each of the 4 children. Lydia is on Monday, but got bumped back due to scheduling conflicts. Anyway, her day was Wednesday this week and she wanted to paint a mermaid handprint on paper. I’m working on samples for the show and Lydia wanted to make her own to take home. She does such a good job with her painting! it’s so much fun watching the kids grow as they get older and build their painting/drawing skills. I’m getting ready for a craftshow in town next month and I’ve cut over 200, 7-3/4 inch round wood blanks to offer Christmas handprint ornaments at #premierschristmasmarket here in Muncie on the 30th. They will be $15 each with two dollars of each ornament going back to help Premier Dance Center raise funds for some upgrades due to their increase in registrations. 🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻#HandprintOrnaments #christmasornaments #craftshowseason #craftshowprep #fundraising #mermaidornament #mermaid #kidart #kidsactivities #kidcrafts #kidcraftideas
Monday is Ms. Lydia’s day to craft with Nana while her sister is at dance class. Today she wanted to draw a lion so she finds a YouTube video she likes and I assist her, if she asks, by drawing the details out on her paper with a stylus and she traces those lines on her own. She’s got to the point where she does a lot of the drawing now on her own because it’s helped to build her confidence overtime. 🖌️🎨. #kidsart #kidsactivities #kidspainting #weekendvibes #familytime #family #drawing
Painting some O Holy Night angel ornaments today. The only tools I used to make these are my scroll saw and sander so you don’t need fancy equipment to make something cute. I drew this design out in procreate, but you can draw this out on card stock and transfer to quarter inch plywood if you don’t have an iPad.
Happy Painting! 🖌️🎨

How to make your own circles when you need a lot! I had some questions about how I make my circles and this video explains it. The only thing it’s missing is the initial three layers of 4 foot quarter inch plywood that I clamped down and took a jigsaw and cut them all out. I purchased three 4 x 8‘ sheets at Lowe’s of quarter inch Revolution ply and had them cut them in half for me. Brought them home put three layers of 4 x 4 foot sheets clamped down and jigsawed them out. I did that twice and it equaled 216 rounds. You don’t need fancy tools, just some basic ones and time to do it all, but it will save you a lot of money! 😎✌🏻. #diycircles #makersgonnamake #christmasornaments #HandprintOrnaments #handprintart #craftshowprep #craftshow #MuncieIndiana #doorhangers #gingerbread #diyprojects #diyrounds #kickingitoldschool
