This time last year Brielle was taking her first dip into the field of hands on (or feet on) crafting when creating her Footprint Valentine’s at the young age of 5 months. This year she’s a lot more active and has had plenty more experience in the art of hand, finger and footprint painting!

On another COLD January day, we took baths then put on new pjs and spent some time with a fun painting exercise: fork painting! Yes you’re reading that correctly. I introduced plastic forks with our Crayola Washable Fingerpaints to give a different texture to her pretty paintings.

Just as we’ve experienced in the past few fingerpainting opportunities, she LOVES when I put down a drop of paint on the paper and let her mush, mix and blend it all around the paper. At first she only did this with her fingers until she remembered the forks in hand!

If mommy tried to rock a beat with her hands she did the same with the forks, making a nice textured mess beautiful picture.

We let these lovely fork paintings dry.

After letting them dry, mommy did her magic with a custom “Happy Valentine’s Day” tag to turn these textured pages into cards for a few family and friends. I created the tags as a FREE PRINTABLE for your use which you can download here!

Some highlights of what my yard produced this year Some highlights of what my yard produced this year:
🎃 Gourds - currently 42 harvested and drying, but tons more coming!
🌞 Yellow Roses - these 2 plants bloom at least 4 times in spring and summer!
🍅 Tomatoes - tons of Roma and Supersweet 100 breeds used for appetizers, sauces and salads. Happy to grow and to gift these away!
🧄 Garlic - planted last fall and harvested in June. Doing this again this October! Should I also do onions?
💜 Lavender - The bees love them. I missed the window to dry them but putting that on my list to try next year. Would you want a little satchel of lavender? 
🥒 Cucumbers - slice it up and add some sea salt. Yum!

Our group of 2 adults and 5 kids were hosted by TreeTopQuestPhilly and enjoyed a sunny Saturday exploring obstacles, climbing and ziplining and we'd highly recommend this park! 
.
Here some key details to know before you go:
- The staff is super knowledgable, friendly and patient with climbers of all abilities, but it is self paced where you are in control of your own equipment. 
- You attend an equipment fitting, safety instruction and practice course before you climb 
- Expect to spend the full 2.5 hours of your reservation and you likely won't need sunglasses in this shady spot
- Gloves are an optional purchase, but we didn't get them and no one got any blisters
- There are 4 levels of courses with Level 4 being for those 12+ only. It's HIGH but thrilling to those willing to check it out! 
- Porta potties and lockers are available at the check in area and there are plenty of benches and picnic tables to sit at in the park. Spectators are free to watch from below. 
.
PROMO CODE: Use code SPOTOFTEADESIGNS for 15% off your online ticket order to climb!

Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate piece shown on the video and add it to the back of your pennant to help it hang more securely, hide the ribbon and not move as much when hung.

Special thanks to @wildercrafting who shared this tip YEARS ago, and I still use it when creating my simple banners.

If you're on a fence about creating a garden next If you're on a fence about creating a garden next year.... do it! While I personally don't eat everything we grow (not a pepper fan!), I do enjoy being outside, caring for the plants, and feeding friends and family!

You can start this fall with garlic! You start planting them in the fall, and you'll enjoy them by summer.
