Projects — Aleene's Creative Living

Here's a cute little card for the kids to make on a rainy day.  They will have fun drawing the stick figure, and making a fan that turns into an umbrella! Gather your supplies of paper in raindrop colors.   Cut and fold card in half. Cut paper for umbrella and fold into 1/2" pleats. Apply glue to one edge of the pleats.   Fold in half and glue together to form the fan/umbrella.   Glue umbrella into crease of card.   Draw a stick figure hold an umbrella handle.  Cut out.   Apply glue to back of stick figure cut-out....

      Oh my gosh!  This old video from the 90's will make you seriously laugh out loud!  We are crafting our little hearts out, making reverse collage chandeliers, votive cups, lamps, and anything else we could get our hands on!  This will take you back to the Aleene's Creative Living television show that used to be on TNN every Monday thru Friday at noon.  We had so much fun doing this!   As you can see, we were rookies at being on TV, but we did it.  And those shoulder pads!  HAHAHA!  We couldn't get our hair high...
