 TAKE IT AWAY COURTNEY!

Hi everyone!! I'm Courtney and my blog home is over at Between U & Me and I am super beyond excited to be here for the Kids Craft Series! Thank you so much to Heather and Jessica for having me!



I have two little kiddos and we are always whipping out the markers, chalk, paint, glue, and so on for them to make their own little masterpieces. I always think that each creation is as good as any Van Gogh or  Monet (I'm there mom, c'mon) and so when I was asked to do a guest post I knew I was putting my little prodigies to work.



The kids have a blank wall in their bathroom that was yearning for some attention, so we decided to spruce it up with some canvas love.

What you'll need:

Four 8x10 canvas 

Assorted acrylic paints

Paint brushes

Foil adhesive letters

1. Smock-up your kids.

2. Leave out the paint, brushes, and canvas. (They'll know what to do.)

3. Let it dry. (We did 5 because L needed "just one more!!")

4. Apply your foil letters to make cute phrases or maybe just one word for each canvas like we did.

Brush. Wash. Floss. Flush. Yup. That pretty much sums it up in the bathroom. For sure!

So there you have it. One of a kind art made by the kids and it makes L and E both smile when they see it hanging in their bathroom. Super special!

Thanks, again, to Heather and Jessica for letting me share this kid friendly tutorial!

I hope you're having an awesome day!!
