Even with running errands and cranky kids somehow this still feels like a quiet day.
Watching a movie, baking, painting, reading and long rest times are making me feel cozy and quiet today.
We did a snow painting project because even though the temperatures are warmer today (over 20 degrees!) there are BIG fluffy snowflakes falling.
Sam and I have done this type of painting project before making heart shapes on canvases last year for valentine's day, spelling out Avery's name for a welcome home banner when she was born and making simple shapes but it hadn't occurred to me to make snowflakes until I saw it here.
A simple snowflake project but it was perfect for us today!
Happy Friday everyone.

So to create these snowflakes or any other shape you simple take tape (masking tape, painters tape or today I used black electricians tape because I was all out of the other two!) and put it on the paper in the shape that you want. Then paint all around the tape. Pull the tape off shortly after painting, don't let the paint dry, and that is it!
Be sure to check back tomorrow because I have a review and GIVEAWAY!!! So excited for another giveaway and this is a good one!
we will definitely try this...i think logan would actually get into it!
