Selah June and I had a wonderful lazy sunday making crafts out of felt and popsicle sticks. We made a bed, a table, and a quilt/rug. She told me that she was using her “creative processes” and was feeling “inspired.” I know she’s picking this up from the YouTube videos she’s watching. At least now she’s into crafting and coloring videos. And I can tell that it’s really helping her improve as an artist! It’s wild! I can’t believe that watching someone color within the lines actually can translate into greater precision for the viewer as well. It’s wild!
It fit perfectly in the felt house she made a few weeks ago with Grammy.
And after two fall festivals and two corn mazes, we managed to bring in three pumpkins from the patch. Selah June wanted to draw a face on her pumpkin. It was very detailed. Jeremy asked what she used as a guide. I told him that was all her. She even gave the pumpkin eyelashes and nostrils!
I absolutely love that SJ likes to do art projects and crafts. She’s a girl after my own heart.
Our other project for the morning was coloring on hot rocks with crayons. The wax melts and makes beautiful pools over the rocks.
