The kiddo cut out and designed the clothes and pasted them onto the paper doll cutout. He then wrote a few sentences about the things he likes right now. He practiced his fine motor skills with cutting and then practiced his handwriting. I used some washi tape to frame the art project and stick it to the matting that came in the frame.
Speaking of the frame, last week a friend of mine had been cleaning out a house and letting me pick through the cast offs before she donated them. So I picked up this dated chipped blue frame that had a restaurant menu framed in it. I had thought I would spray paint it one day and find some use for it. I mean a 2.5' frame for free...yeah I couldn't do better than that.
While the kiddo was crafting I thought this frame would be the perfect size for this project. Since it has been raining so much lately and it still was too damp I didn't want to deal with spray paint and I remembered I had some duct tape out from the other day...Bingo! Bango!
In about 10 minutes, $0, and no clean up I had a completely new art for my walls!
