Crayola Airbrush Olympic Art
If you follow us on Instagram , you know we LOVE LOVE LOVE our Crayola airbrush ! We originally purchased it as a gift for Nory following her elbow surgery. With the press of a button, she was able to do art-making with us, making recovery a little less mundane :) I regret not buying two because, EVERYONE ALWAYS WANTS A TURN! Most recently, we used the airbrush to execute some abstract, Olympic ring art. HOW MUCH FUN IS THIS?!!!! WHAT YOU NEED: Crayola airbrush Crayola marker

These jewellery dishes are just one of the many unicorn crafts that we enjoyed together! WHAT YOU NEED: plastic unicorn figurines gold acrylic paint white plate

Cork Circle Snowflakes
You never know what you're going to find in our basement. It's where all things are saved for future craft projects, whether Phil agrees with this storage practice or not ;) On a recent basement adventure, we found cork circles from a previous night sky creation. With slippers on our feet and hot drinks in our mugs, we decided a wintery art project was in order :) WHAT YOU NEED: cork circles white acrylic paint strips of felt, foam, ribbon, yarn (blue, silver & white) push pi

Snowy Cityscapes
I have an ongoing debate in my brain over whether I like cool colours or warm colours more. Whenever we do an art project with cool colours, I'm CONVINCED they are the winners. But, then I go and do a project with warm colours and I'm unsure once again. Regardless, this cool colour art project has us smiling ear to ear! The palette is eye candy and the process lends itself well to a haphazard approach. BONUS, BONUS! WHAT YOU NEED: white paper (we used size 11 by 17) sponges
