When I say everyone is an artist, I mean it! EVERYONE. IS. AN. ARTIST. Including....my dog, Oakley! :)
We are an Olympics-loving family over here with an "Olympics" tree to prove it. Yep, we have a year-round "Christmas" tree that is updated to reflect seasons and celebrations. Here it is in all of it's WE LOVE THE OLYMPICS glory:
Of course, we can't merely stop at a tree. Hence, THE DOG ART ;)
WHAT YOU NEED:
a dog (haha!)
paint in the colours of the Olympic Rings
white cardstock
Ziploc bag(s) - depends on how many you make!
peanut butter (we're loyal to Kraft)
optional: black paper, frame
HOW TO MAKE:
Place a dab of each Olympic Ring paint colour - in Olympic Ring order! - onto a piece of white cardstock.
Carefully place the cardstock into the Ziploc bag, trying not to smudge the dabs of paint!
Zip the Ziploc. GUYS, YOU GOTTA ZIP THE ZIPLOC!!!!
Put a few smears of peanut butter onto the Ziploc. I put them nearby any paint spots.
It's painting time for your pup! Hold the zippy on the floor and allow your dog to bring out his inner pup-casso. I promise they will really, really, really love it ;)
Carefully remove the cardstock from the Ziploc and allow the art piece to dry.
We repeated this same process 3 times and framed the artwork as a collection of 4. It's totally your choice!
Ta-da......just another reason to adore your sweet pup ;) <3
We love having this piece on display in our living room. It adds a little something-something to the already-hard-core Olympics vibe ;)
Happy creating!
Love, Linds
