Cheap Crafting with the Kids

I always have eager helpers whenever I craft. I usually have a little craft similar to mine to keep the girls occupied, so I can finish mine. I, like everyone else, have been trying to save a little money, but I still NEED to craft. So, I had the girls go out in the yard and pick the biggest rock they could carry. We brought them inside, washed and dried them and then picked out paint.

Carly the fashionista of the two, picked baby pink, hot pink, and chocolate brown.

Leighton, who is all about the glamour, went for purple and red.

I guess she is planning for her entrance into the Red Hat Society at 60.Carly's finished rock, named Cinderella.Leighton's finish rock, named Selena. After they dried, the girls took them outside, that pesky 'No rocks in the house rule.' Cinderella and Selena have swung on the swings, gone down the slide, slept next to both the cat and the dog, rested in a potted plant, taken a ride in the wagon, etc. I'm sure they will live a long and happy life. But the most important thing??? I got my craft done. YAY!
