cookie dough truffles

I believe I have found the most delicious treat in the whole world.  I found this cookie dough at Target and it doesn't have eggs...so you can eat it right out of the carton....but then I thought I would coat them in milk chocolate and drizzle them with white chocolate!  Yummy and easy too :)

Triangles!

This month is a theme of triangle projects with a focus on wall art.

For the first project I put washi tape on my wall which is a nice temporary way to decorate a room.  Washi tape is a decorative colored adhesive tape. Click on link to see other ways to use washi tape.

 Secondly, I used card stock of triangles and hung along the sliding glass wall (works by Matisse have a similar look).  Click on link for more information on paper cut outs by Matisse.

Also, I created a colorful triangle drawing using color pencils.  You could also use paint to create your masterpiece.   I found some examples on Pinterest. ~JM

Pointillism Art

I volunteer as mentor/tutor to a 3rd grader once a week.  This week we did a project focusing on pointillism.  I have done a blog post on this before but wanted to show off my student's art work.  Materials: Q-tips and paint. 😊 ~JM.

Blank Cards

I have done blank cards project on this blog before focusing on Christmas cards but I wanted to do it again when I saw a pack of 24 cards for $3!!  Some ideas I found on Pinterest by searching "blank card ideas" and "simple ink drawings".  I used an ink pen and water color.  ~JM
