Weekend Art -- Suminagashi for Kids
It is very rare that we feature a project here on Inner Child Fun that requires a trip to the art store, however this is the MOST requested project Emily has asked to do during Clara’s nap time. Suminagashi has kept Emily happily creating beautiful prints for hours!! Here are some tips for trying Suminagashi for kids. Suminagashi is an ancient Japanese technique for decorating paper with inks. You can learn more about this technique here. I used a 40% off coupon and found it at Blick Art. (around $15). Next, you will need a dishpan filled with plain ol’ water about 2 inches deep, a few paint brushes and either a plastic or styrofoam egg carton to hold a few drops of the ink used to load up the brushes. Emily used two brushes for each print. She can be completely mesmerized by this!! Lift it up to reveal your beautiful (and very unique) design! Experiment further by blowing gently on the surface of the water either directly, or with a straw. And this was the scene in our kitchen today….

make it for mom - mother's day roundup
ohhhh, here it is folks! here's the monster of a post that's kept me up late the last few nights while i endure my braxton hicks.....the make it for mom mother's day roundup that i guest blogged over on "made" for celebrating mom! pop on over to made and check it out! To me, motherhood comes in many forms. being someone who thought she may never be able to have children of her own i learned through my own personal struggle that motherhood is in our lives in places we may not always want to look, such as adoption, in-vitro, surrogacy, etc., but it's there, patiently waiting. Being a mom doesn't mean you have to give birth, it means unconditional love. Whether that child has your DNA or not, each and every little angel deserves that special kind of love and giving birth isn't the only way to develop and nurture that precious bond. Being a mom is something that can be made. Row 11. layered skirt 2. apron 3. tie on slippersRow 24. spring ruffle top 5. elastic waist skirt 6. apron Row 11.
Wedding Hankie/Baby Bonnet Gift Set - OCCASIONS AND HOLIDAYS
I get inspired by so many great projects on here that I want to get in the habit of posting my projects. So here's my latest project This weekend was my friend's wedding shower/batchlorette party. She's really picky about clothing so I didn't want to get her lingere and she's kind of a prude so I didn't want to get her the normal "box o' x-rated fun" that I usually give my friends when they get married. Close up of the rose, just becasue I'm super proud of how it turned out. When she opened it up there was a card with this poem Then this vintage hankie Took me forever to find a hankie that was zebra print, let alone with red roses (her wedding flowers) and a vintage one (so it can be her something old), but yay for etsy! Then there was a card with the instructions on how to turn the hankie into a bonnet, along with a little sewing kit with everything she'll need for it. Oh well, I guess that's what I get for trying to give something sentimental to an alchoholic......... Thanks for looking!
