I would say that we did pretty well with our first attempt at beading. It started off that we were going to make a ring for our friend Ms. Jennifer as a thank-you for watching the girls this morning. Maddy, then, wanted to make a ring for herself, Gabby wanted one for herself, and I needed one for myself... etc. They turned out pretty cute.
Our first attempt at beading some fashionable rings- not too bad!
I learned how to make a memory wire beaded bracelet at a MOPS meeting this past May. It was one of the best crafts we had done at those meetings and I really thought that the girls would enjoy it as well. I think they liked picking and sorting the beads the best, but they didn't mind beading the wire either. It was a great activity to do while Cheyenne napped and as a distraction from wanting to watch the television.
Our next project is an unknown right now. We will eventually make some bracelets and I am sure we will have the watercolors out in the very near future. There are puppets to be made for the start of First Grade, so you know we'll be making more than we need just for fun. That's also something Cheyenne can help with. I am happy that the girls love making art projects.
