Oh, I should be doing so many other things, like packing up stuff in my garage to take to the thrift store, or scraping paint off of my newly painted french doors, or feeding my daughter dinner (oops). But instead, I have been cutting stencils. A nice busy-hands activity for a day with the in-laws sitting and playing Settlers, and sipping coffee. I'm thinking about doing a repeat of my butterfly onesies but with these stencils. Trouble is, you can only use the stencils once cleanly. They are sooooo incredibly simple and friendly for my kid busy house. A quick press with the iron, a few swabs of carefully applied acrylic paint and let it dry- ta da!! Josiah can watch it from start to finish before he even thinks about touching. If you are thinking of trying it I suggest Veer for nice illustrations and trace it right off your computer monitor! Ok, now to make the Sunday night pancakes.
