Today I’ll share our Wednesday art recap. What a wonderfully artistic day we’ve had over here. From church group crafts to piano lessons to art class to this evening’s craftpalooza, it’s been both a full and fulfilling day.
My counters and dining room table are covered with countless pieces of art, in various stages of the drying process. My floors are dusted with glitter, paint splatters dance across my kitchen table, and my chairs are sticky. All evidence of a creative day in this house, currently under construction. This mama is worn out from all the fun and I want nothing more than to curl up with my book, but first I thought I’d share some of today’s art with you guys. It was hard to decide what to share, simply because there is so much of it, and also because many items are holiday gifts. That said, I present to you some of today’s creations:
Snowman ornament.

A mystery box from art class!
And last, but certainly not least (and perhaps my favorite), the Crazy Chicken puppet:
