kid-made: last minute ornaments

Sunday, December 22, 2013 4 Comments

 

TOTALLY last minute kid-made crafts/ornaments - all require 2 or less materials!!! | @mamamissblog #kidmadecrafts #kidmadechristmas #kidmadeornaments #easykidcrafts

 

I am totally last-minute mama – I really am!  I wait until the night before to throw my posts together, a lot even the day of!  There is never enough time in the day to accomplish nearly as much as I want too.

Tell me you feel me?!  Tell me I’m not the only procrastinator left?!  Tell me I’m not the only one who IS ALWAYS LATE for everything?!

ha-ha I know there are still some of us out there (wink wink) – we strive to have everything Pinterest perfect.  Well, I hate to break the news to ya – it’s far from Pinterest perfect around this house.  Halloween decorations – ha-ha they never went up & sat in that box staring at me everyday until Thanksgiving came & then I didn’t need to put them up because I got to put up Christmas now.  YAY!  Our tree actually went up a decent time this year – but presents – lol – yep not wrapped yet (night before babee).  And baking for the Christmas Eve soiree I’m hosting – yep the oven hasn’t even been turned on yet!

The holidays are not about perfection, they are about family, as they should be.  If you’re striving for perfection – well, you aren’t gonna find it here ;)  I’m far, waaaaay far, from perfection friends, I’m just keepin’ on keepin’ on, the only way I know how to (with a lot of coffee!!).





So let’s get back on track, Jack!

So, these kid-made last minute ornaments are what you need right now.  You want to know why, and why I see such beauty in these kid-made creations?!  Well,  here’s the lowdown…

  • Besides scissors & glue, all of them really only need 2 or less materials.   what-what!
  • They are all super easy for the average preschooler to do without a whole lot of instruction.  woot-woot!
  • They will keep them busy.  yeeeesss!

See, I got your back!!  Now you can be procrastinator mama just like me!!  Throw down the supplies & LET. THEM. GO. TO. CRAFTY. TOWN.  (that’s right next to coffee town BTW ;)

Here’s where you can find all this goodness so you can get those cookies made in time for Christmas…  yehaw!  Make it happen mama!

“Two kinds of gratitude: The sudden kind we feel “Two kinds of gratitude: The sudden kind we feel for what we take; the larger kind we feel for what we give.” – Edwin Arlington Robinson

🐕💛🐈

Yesterday, V & her friend volunteered at our local animal shelter to braid beds for the shelter cats.  They then took turns reading to one of the cats, a cat who was having trouble eating that the shelter was hoping the interaction would coax him up & about.

I love that my kiddos have reached that middle school age where they can volunteer more easily without much parental help.  Our local animal shelter allows kiddos to volunteer (with a parent there) at age 10. It’s really rad to see them come into their own with understanding on how to have an active role in participating and volunteering in their community, and what a reward it is to give 🤩

Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...not looking for flaws, but for potential.” - Ellen Goodman

🌟Potential.  YESSSSS 🙌🏻 I really like this quote 🌟

🧐🔍Seeing the positive first is a great mantra to have when we tend to automatically gravitate towards things that are negative.

🪄Here’s to a bright 2021 and a purposeful positive outlook. 🎉

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟 🤗 How did you HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟

🤗 How did you celebrate the arrival of 2021? 

🎲We played board games all night (cough cough surprise surprise 🤣) while munching on this charcuterie board.

🥳I surprised Eric & the kids by going all fancy for dinner last night. I wasn’t sure the kids would like the goat cheese (my favorite with fig spread 🤤) so I added some basic cheddar. But they LOVED it - I spread a little on one of the plain crackers with fig spread on top. So good! 

🍈Fig spread, goat cheese, & 2 large crackers is from @wholefoods 
🍇Grapes are from @costco (they have the best grapes!)
🪴Rosemary springs are from our garden.
🧀Everything else is from @traderjoes

Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!! Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!!🤗 (now if all my other mail I’m waiting on would arrive 🧐😩)

🦀🐙🐡I backed Open Ocean from @featherstonegames on @kickstarter this summer.  It’s so incredibly neat to see a game come together from start to finish.

🐠🐟🐬This game is beautiful I can’t wait to sit to play with the kids as they become budding marine biologists.

He’s a little bit funky... a little bit rock n r He’s a little bit funky... a little bit rock n roll. - I’m kinda loving him though, my little abstract tree.🎄

🧵Right before my dad passed last year, during my last visit with him, he gave me this giant bag of these vintage-y wooden spools knowing that I’d use them in my art classes or some other creative way. 

🧐As I was lesson planning this weekend the idea came to me when I peeked them in my wood craftin’ drawer - CHRISTMAS TREE!! 

✂️I also have a simpler idea in mind with no wire bending/cutting to try it in my art classes as a kinda ‘extra’ project for early finishers. Stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 I’m grateful th Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 
I’m grateful this Thanksgiving for my Dad ❤️ 

📖📖📖When he was alive I’m not sure I appreciated this book as much, but now that he’s gone it’s made me appreciate him even more that he took the time to catalog all our family recipes into two cookbooks for us to have. 

🦃🍁🍂This Thanksgiving without my mom joining us (she’s with friends this year) I was without her traditional treats like my favorite Pumpkin Cheesecake.

💪🏻So I attempted that (my first cheesecake EVER!) and Tussies (mini pecan pies) from scratch using my families recipes.  I’m so excited to dig in today and the whole time making them made me feel extremely #grateful for my Dad & all he did for his family. 💕
