Kid Craft: Watercolor Popsicle Garland

Crafts & DIY, Kids' Crafts, Painting

Kids Craft: Summer Popsicle Garland #kidscraft | spotofteadesigns.com

Since we took down our Easter Egg garland after the holiday, my bright entry way mirror has been sad without a craft decorating it. (Especially since my entry way table must remain bare with curious toddler hands in reach of its top!) With summer here, it needed something bright and colorful so I turned to my trusty crafting assistant and asked if she wanted to paint. Her response: “YAH!!!!!!!!!!!” The girl loves to craft, what can I say?

I set her up in her familiar high chair and black smock and grabbed our watercolor supplies.

She loves to “dip dip dip” the brush in the paint and spread it all around, even grabbing two brushes for some extra fun!

Before long, blank sheets of paper were covered in beautiful strokes of watercolor goodness from a cheap set bought at the dollar store.

I made a quick popsicle shape template and once the sheets were dried, I traced the template all over the back of the sheets.

Brielle helped me cut out the shapes (aka sits on my lap and curls one finger around the scissor handle). Next, she helped me glue mini popsicle sticks on the back. I was surprised and pleased to see how well she did with gluing!

With just a quick hole punch on top and some extra ribbon from our stash, we were able to make a quick and simple kid crafted popsicle garland to welcome summer and guests into our home! The best part? Brielle always walks by and when you admire the garland aloud she says “I made it!”

Hey guys! It's been a while since I've done a #fri Hey guys! It's been a while since I've done a #fridayintroductions so here it goes!
.
I'm Tara. 🙋‍♀️
.
I prefer M&Ms to "fancy" chocolate brands, room temperature water to ice cold, and Gerber daisies to roses. 🌺
.
I love browsing at stores more than buying, am always a sucker for a play on words, and I love me a google doc spreadsheet for just about anything. 🤓
.
According to my hubby who has known me almost half my life, I am not a fan of loud air noises (fans/wind etc), water blasted on high, or closing drawers/cabinets fully. 🙈 
.
I also don't drink coffee or tea (despite my brand name!) and at 39 years old, am currently on the hunt for cute adult pjs vs wearing the old tshirts from high school to bed. 
.
My girls share a birthday 2 years apart (#nehilbirthdaytwins). Yes they love it now because they don't know any different and they pretty much share friends anyway so we just do one party a year! 
.
Thanks for following along with my feed full of crafts, parties, home decor and parenting.

Leave me a comment and let me know where you're from! I'm a Jersey girl, born, raised and raising!

I know many think of it as the twisted backdrops for parties in the 80s, but I've used it in lots of other ways! How do you like the black crepe paper spiderweb I made for this Spiderman party I styled a few years back?

Yesterday I got my 2nd shot of Pfizer at one of those mega vaccination sites and was thoroughly impressed at how smoothly it ran and how well behaved and patient all the attendees were. Go science!

I haven't styled many parties outside mostly becau I haven't styled many parties outside mostly because of the elements in NJ, but I fondly look back at this camping themed one styled at our last house. The green trees in back were the perfect backdrop for this outdoor adventure!

Swipe for some ideas that would be great for a great outdoors themed party or a themed get together at the campground this summer!

Not only am I an etsy seller, I'm also an etsy buy Not only am I an etsy seller, I'm also an etsy buyer and supporter! When trying to figure out what to put in these frames in my new bathroom, I debated about designing something myself. After a quick search through Etsy I found @ateliercartouche and fell in love with Jennifer's watercolor style botanical prints!
.
I reached out about a custom size for the #gifted @custompictureframes frames I already owned and Jennifer worked with me to create a custom order that was easy for me to print and frame at home. I LOVE how they bring life into this space and I highly recommend her shop for digital art for your home!
