Today's Words Of Glass

I'm not very 'crafty', but it's a secret desire of mine to be. I was one of those kids (and now one of those adults) who can't cut a straight line. Seriously, I wish I was exaggerating. And then came Pinterest  - sigh - a crafty person's heaven and a non-crafty person's hell. But now that I'm a Mom, I feel even more pressure to try to somewhat be crafty with my son. Just because I can't draw or cut paper properly doesn't mean that he shouldn't get to try it. So I came across these cute (and supposedly simple) ideas. I mean, surely we can't mess these up too much right? I'll have to do a 'follow-up post' once we've attempted to completed some crafts. Do you have some SUPER easy (and I mean SUPER easy) toddler crafts that you've done? If so, share them with me.  For more Christmas craft and gift ideas, check out my "Christmas" board.   Follow Amy Glass Christmas on Pinterest

I just did my first Pinterest Project! I would post a picture, but my Mom says it needs a ribbon and I'm not the kind of girl that has ribbons and bows in the house. Chocolate yes - ribbons no. So, I'll go buy some ribbon and add it - if I can tie a bow. Every time I try to tie a bow it turns out upside down. Mom said to google it and watch a video (ha). If it were only that simple for me. Computers I can do. Bows not so much. I destroyed the kitchen and I'm sure it took much longer than it was supposed to take to do this project, but it turned out ok. I'll take a pic once I go to the store and get some ribbon, find a video on how to tie it, call my mom numerous times as she tries to instruct me yet again how to do it (as I remind her of the numerous times that I had to tell her to click on the Big E to get to the internet - we each have our strengths and weaknesses). Funny thing is, she's master the Big E, time will tell if I can master tying a bow. ;)
