In the mood to paint!

This Friday was full of art fun!  It was a beautiful day to have the doors and windows open and do some painting, so we finished up our school work and broke out the paints.

I saw this post at 1+1+1=1 (inspired by this one) and decided this was just the fall art project we needed this week! 

Kinder-girl had fun painting a paper towel roll (which I have in abundance these days - can't throw them away any more!).

(Side note, I just love how she put on the headband herself today, so cute)

I traced the leaves for her with a thick black marker and she cut (some of) them out.

Love the concentration!  Yes, we did use double sided tape.  Glue stick is over-rated!

Our first kindergarten fall art project.  So fun!

    It brings back memories of projects I did as a kid.
