Mom's Night In


Jen and Beth with their projects.  They came out great! (see instructions in my last post)

My husband was even inspired to start on a T shirt to let his students know there'll be a test the next day.  We'll see if it works!

Easy Fabric Paint Stenciling

First of all, I was super excited to find a site that had a whole section on crafts for boys. The site's called MADE (dana-made-it.com) and the crafts are under "Celebrate the BOY." So cute.

I chose this craft for the playgroup Mom's night this week because it's easy, fun and you can really individualize it. Detailed instructions for how to do the craft are at the link above. The pictures are of my experiment making "smartypants" for the Cutie Patootie.

For this project, you'll need:
  • Freezer paper (not wax)- I was able to find this at the Safeway on Winchester & Bubb in Campbell and on line (but couldn't find it at Target)
  • A silhouette design (you can draw something, print an outline image onlinet, or type out words in a fav font)
  • A piece of clothing (or other fabric item)
  • Scrap fabric (for covering the painted design during final ironing)
  • Soft fabric paint
  • Brush and/or Q-tips
  • Iron
  • X-acto knife
  • Cutting board or mat
  • Pencil

Giving up your hacis (pacifiers) is hard work! Haci Bear was stuffed with all of the pacifiers we could find around the house.
