Crafting on St. Patrick's Day!

My nephew Zak loves to do "arts and craps" when I'm working on my own projects. A few days ago he found some pipe cleaners and beads and started making jewelry. I always want to encourage creativity, so I let him choose some new pipe cleaners and beads today on a quick trip to Joann. Zak worked for quite a while making necklaces and bracelets for himself and his stuffed animals. 

The cutest thing was that he kept asking "Lolly, am I artistic? Do you think I am a good artist?" Of course my response was a big "yes!"

I hope that you all have a safe, happy Saint Patrick's Day! 

Happy crafting!

A bracelet fit for a superhero

My nephew is obsessed with superheroes and I've been in an especially crafty mood, so I decided to make him a superhero cuff. He already has a cape and gloves with a big "Z" on them (for Zak), so I thought I'd go with that theme.

I need to get a photo of him with his whole getup on because it's pretty adorable. He is my favorite superhero for sure! :)
