Snowmen

We have an abundance of baby food jars that I have been trying to think of something fun to do with. To make our snowmen, we just painted the jars white, painted the lid (and a lid to a water bottle--hot glued on the top) black, hot glued on some ribbon for a scarf, and drew on the faces. You can tell which ones my son drew. :) I thought they turned out pretty cute. They made a good addition to the decorations on our mantle.

Letter G

On the capital "G," we glued some grass that we picked from our lawn.
The lower case "g" is colored (a bit anyway :) ) with green and gray crayons.
We also read a book and wrote down all the words that started with the letter "g."

Castle

I have to say that the idea for this one was mine. We had a lot of toilet paper rolls to use, so I thought a castle would be fun. We made a prince out of roll, too, but it somehow didn't get in the picture. My son had a lot of fun painting this.

Stockings

I have made Christmas stockings for my family. Even though my baby boy was born in January, and I could have had nearly a year to make him a stocking, I waited until the last couple weeks to start it. I finished it just in time to put it up with our decorations. Here are all of our stockings, hung on our mantel.


Here is a close up of the newest addition, the little gingerbread man. All the details I hand sewed felt pieces on, or hand embroidered. I especially like the mini rickrack.

Letter F

On the capital "F," we finger painted finger (and hand) prints.
The lower case "f" is a fish.
We also read a book and wrote down all the words that started with the letter "f."
