Valentine Doiley Shirt

Everyone needs a festive shirt for Valentine's Day. When this craft was shown in the Disney Family Fun Magazine I knew that we had to do it. Here is how you can make your own!

What You Need

T-Shirt
Glue Stick
Paper Heart Doily (I found a pack of 12 at Target in the $1 bins)
Fabric Paint
1 inch Foam Brush

Directions

1. Take the gluestick and spread evenly on the back side of the doily. You will want to scrape off any excess so that when you paint you do not ruin your design.





2. Place the doily onto the shirt.

3. Taking the fabrick paint you will want to spread evenly on the paint brush. Then paint away!

4. Once finished carefully peelback the doily to reveal your super cute Valentine's Day shirt!


Liv was so proud of her shirt. We washed and wore it the very next day!

Fun In The Snow


We have had quite a bit of snow the past couple of weeks. Alivia was ready to play as soon as the first snowflakes started to fall. Bennett on the other hand was curious but not so willing to play in the cold stuff. We bundled up one day to show him how much fun this white stuff would bring. He was in tears when it was finally time to come indoors.
