Wood Working

Another snowy day and Keira wants to hammer nails into something for her latest creation.
Leilani prefers to keep it simple with just wood & paint.
 
 
First, Keira drew out her clover on a thin piece of wood then had it cut out with a saw.

 
She nailed it to another board without smashing any fingers, which is impressive for a first-timer.

 
Painted the background blue and the clover green with a dash of glitter.

 
She's all ready for her new favorite holiday, St. Patrick's Day!!!


Leilani sanded down a piece of scrap wood.


She painted the background then dried it with a blow dryer before penciling & painting her letters.

 
She's still deciding where to hang it and claim her place!

Mike Wazowski

 
Keira came up with the idea, picked out the fabrics and designed him but Grandma Honey had to do the sewing then Keira stuffed him. He turned out really cute!
