You’ve seen it all over Pinterest. That thing with the crayons and the hot glue and the hair dryer that everyone else did first.
I know you’ve seen it, which means you’re probably rolling your eyes at this.
We were too, but we also wanted an easy, fun craft for a lazy Saturday afternoon.
Baby Daddy even got involved.
I knew he would. He can never stay out of my projects for too long.
He was all “this is stupid” and then ten seconds later, “I have an idea.”
I was overly optimistic and he was overly negative. You know how it goes.
Meanwhile my sister Kelly was enjoying herself and making something better.
And we persevered.
It ended up looking a lot like a first grade project, but I like it.
Maybe for a little girl’s room someday?
Here is my sister, making something better.
And Austin creating another “piece” that he would later call “fail.”
Anyways, that’s what we did on Saturday.
That thing with crayons and canvas that everyone else did first.

I love the flower idea! (Even better knowing it came from the person who said the whole thing was stupid.)
Um, this is the 1st I’ve heard or seen it. I guess I’m not up on my Pinterest crafts, LOL.
Yes. Original for the win!
This looks fun. Appropriate title but I’d totally do it too.
The fire-cracker is my fav (though I don’t want to start any marital spats!)—it reminds me of Shel Silverstein’s art.
I’d have to agree, JJ.
Our marital spats are reserved for more important things like the Netflix Queue.
Austin’s flower will be the next hot pin on Pinterest.
He would be so secretly proud…and then not so secretly….and then annoying.
except that when you do things they look even more awesome. and remind us all that real people do this stuff. thanks for that.
You.Are.Welcome.
whoa- so fun! the picture third from the bottom sort of looks like fireworks.
well done!
Love this!!
The flower is really good. Hang it up!
Better than the ones I saw on Pinterest!
