Something For Mom

Look at how wonderful that Crayola paint is!!  The color is so bold.  We started our Mothers Day projects yesterday.  They chose a color and I painted their hands.

Handprints always make a good mom gift.  Their hands grow sooo fast.

Crayola is REALLY the best.  It just washes right off.  I think  I'm Crayola paint obsessed.

My niece, Alexis. 

Some of our pots, ready for sealant.  It's important to seal projects when using washable paint.  (Or any paint, I think.  Especially if it is on a flower pot and is likely to get wet every day.)  Last year, Mothers Day snuck up on me so fast I didn't get to help the kids create something for mom.

I coated the outside of each flower pot with this sealant.  It was excellent- the paint didn't run.  It was dry almost immediately.  Good stuff!!  Today and tomorrow, we will plant flowers in our pots in anticipation of making our moms smile. :)  I will post the final results then.
