Two Fun Mother’s Day Crafts

Hey guys! I’m back! I have not seen you for so long! I hope you are having a good day! Today I will teach you how to make two fun Mother’s Day crafts! Mother’s Day is getting close, and I don’t have a gift for my mom! First, I will teach you how to make a frame for your mom! First, you need some fun colored popsicle sticks. Line them up in a row, and then cover them with glue.

Next, you will need to cut a piece of paper. The width should be less than a popsicle stick, but the length should be longer than the popsicle sticks lined up. After that, you put a googly eye at the far left of the paper. It will stand for I as in I Love You. Next, You paint a heart next to the googly eye. It will stand for the Love In I Love You. Finally, you paint a U next to the heart. The U stands for the You in I Love You. I painted the word mom at the far right corner, but you don’t have to put it there. By the way, you do not have to follow every step I am telling you, but I am telling you the steps to lead you in the right direction. Then, you will have to hot glue (or regular glue, but hot glue is better, way better) two popsicle sticks on the back to make it stand up. You can also put magnets on the back to put it on your fridge. I would do that, but my fridge is not magnetic. Well, you are done with the first project! On to the next craft! In this craft we will need a pipe cleaner, letter beads, and your love for your mom.

First, put beads on so they say I Love U. (I put I heart U with a heart bead.) Then put a bead after it to separate I Love You from the other stuff. Next put Mom after the bead. Keep repeating the steps until the pipe cleaner is full. Tie the pipe cleaner together and try it on. It will probably be to big for you, but it might be the perfect size for your mom. That is all! Have an amazing day! See you soon! Bye!

How to Make an Epic Collage

1 Reply

Hey readers! Its me Lucy Marashian! So the topic of today is…. collages! Lets get started!

So first, whenever making collages you need paper. I would use card stock or hard colored paper. Then, you get all of your materials. I used…

glue
tape (we all need tape don’t we?)
straws
STICKERS!!!
Paper (to cut up + you need it for the base)
googly eyes
pom poms
feathers
and more!

Guys, all of the materials are optional and you DO NOT have to use them.

Third step, put it all together. Glue, stick, make tape bracelets… Wait, no tape bracelets, unless you want some…. Nevermind. While we are waiting for the glue to dry what do you think my next blog post should be about? Post it down below in the comments. OK glue is dry, so now you hang it up and show it off. Here is mine!

DO NOT FORGET TO WRITE YOUR NAME ON IT! I will ask Theo what he thinks about art. He said, “Pretend school is fun.” You do not have to make the collage look pretty because all art looks different for everyone. One of my favorite things to see in a collage is texture. Who knows, you may have the same liking in art as other people, but its okay to have preferences. Here is a clue for one of my ideas on a blog post.

Ruff ruff guys! (bye bye guys!)

Paint Fun

Hello, everyone! Today we are going to have a special guest. He will be on very soon. He will tell you about what he did with painting, but first, I will tell you about painting.

There is a very fun way to make some lanterns. First, you get plastic cups. I’m guessing you know what to do. No? You don’t know what to do?

First step: Get paint.

Second step: Get paintbrushes.

Third step: Get those plastic cups I told you about.

Fourth step: Paint them.

Then, buy plastic candles. Put tape on the plastic candle and then tape it to the bottom of the cup. Wait for the paint to dry first!

Do you know what inspired me to make this? My school had a fun art night. We got to make very fun projects which you can see below.

Pretend School

5 Replies

Hello, everyone! Today I would like to tell you about pretend school.

That is Theo. He is silly sometimes.

The marble run is recess. You have to have recess or it won’t be like school. I wonder if all schools have recess?

You can teach the people who are doing the pretend school math and other stuff for school.

You can also see Stuffed Animal School, but that is the class pet. Her name is Tabitha. She likes kids. If you’re teaching older kids, you should have older kid books. If you’re teaching younger kids, you should have younger kid books. The younger kid books you should do “Pete’s a Pizza” and different books. Maybe you could get library books so it looks like there’s a library at your school.

Theo is learning math and he’s looking in his book. He drew the picture. He likes it.

Theo really really wants to see you, and the next blog post is about what to do instead of watching tv.

Painting with Your Family

6 Replies

Hello, everyone. It’s nighttime. I just wanted to tell you about… yawn… painting.

I’m tired tonight. Oh, I have to get back!

This is called Painting with Your Family. I painted with my brother, Theo. You might see my brother Theo painting in the pictures. He’s good at painting. You can paint whatever you want!

yawn…..zzzz…. What happened?! What happened?!

So if you want to paint a picture you need the droppy things. They’re called eye droppers. Then you will need watercolors. But not the kind where you use a paintbrush, liquid watercolor.

First you squeeze the eye dropper into a paint and then you put it over a piece of paper and then you squeeze it, let go, and squeeze it again.

I’m tired right now. Okay, let’s get back…

You can use whatever colors you want. Sometimes you need paper towels. If you do, put it over your paper and take it off really quickly. If you don’t, then most of it will go away and you can’t see it good.

So then you should paint it again. But, if not, just do it really quick. You can also make paintings with your paper towels.

zzzz…. Hey! I’m back! Is it the next morning? Um, I don’t think so because it’s dark outside. Okay, here we go…

So as I was saying, you use an eye dropper to put it on paper. Then you lay it outside. If you don’t you will probably get paint in the house. If your hands get messy, go wash them. I had to do that.

So make sure there’s not water near it. If it gets water on it, all the color will go away.

You can also do other art on How to Make a Paper Book for Your Brother or Sister.

I’m tired. Is it time to go to bed yet? Okay, let’s end this…

Bye- bye! Zzzzzzzzzzz
