Black Friday Crafts

OK - so normally I am up super early and out shopping and hunting for deals.  Even with Gooba as a little bag I bundled her up in the stroller and the shopping continued.  Well... this year, she's just too "toddlery" in the store for me to handle... LOL.  SO instead, we did our next favorite thing - CRAFTS!  We realized at Thanksgiving when the grandmas were looking at her alphabet scrapbook, that it was - neglected a tiny bit.  So today we caught up a little!



OK - so this is a combination of old and new.  A long time ago we made the handprint jellyfish and glued on the googly eyes.  Today, we painted the jelly jar.  This page needs a little more - but it's a good start!



Another combination page.  The watercolor J is a magic letter.  I drew a J on white paper with white crayon (not as easy as it sounds!) and she painted over.  Then I had her color June from The Little Einsteins - one of her favorite shows.  Again - could use a little more but a great start!



One to K!  Another magic letter from a while ago and today we painted the king.  I plan to add a picture of Gooba on this page since her name starts with a K too!  I just need to print one out.


One of my FAVORITES that we made today!  I cut out a diamond shape out of construction paper and Gooba tore tissue paper into tiny pieces.  Then she used a glue stick to glue on the tissue paper - which turned out somewhat modge-podgey looking.  Super fun.


Another old and new.  A long time ago we made ladybug footprints and today we made the other ladybug.  I cut out the pieces and Gooba glued them together!  Then we counted the dots on each side - see a little math on craft day too!


Then I added the hand and foot lobster we made when we made the footprint ladybugs.  We added some leaf, lion, lemon, and lime stickers too!  Then We stuck a bunch of leaves from the yard onto contact paper and stuck them on her window... also super fun!







Well I know it's not as detailed as I have been in the past, but I'm definitely catching up.  Today I've been promoting our Essential Etsy Blog and all of our Black Friday deals as well as crafting!  Lots to do - lots to do!   Don't forget to come check out my etsy shop Gooba Gear if you have a chance!  GOOBA20 earns you 20% off this weekend.  I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
