Happy Saturday folks! Do you remember a couple of months ago I mentioned I was illustrating a children’s book? I just got the OK from the Author of The Rainbow Pants, Kelly Brooks Bay, to announce that it will be released in 2 weeks! You can check out the author’s blog here and please “like” The Rainbow Pants on Facebook so you don’t miss any of the upcoming events and release! Here is a quick and easy project I designed to go with the book:
If you are wondering about the dauber bottles I used I bought these empty ones from Oriental Trading and filled them with student grade watercolors and water to make watercolor stains.
Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!
Hi Lindsay! Did you make those paint daubers? If so, will you please show us how you did them? Great ideas, as always. But remember, we love watching you make things, so slow down and we’ll be thrilled to watch! Hugs, Beth
