Hello! Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!
Over at Cottonwood Creek we have had a very busy but productive couple of weeks! Last week we tried to be as secretive as we possibly could while planning and preparing to celebrate a couple of birthdays. We made gifts and colored cards for a few of the kids that are going to celebrate birthdays in May! We also made a Mother's Day gift!
It took us a week but it was worth it for the end result was great! I will briefly explain how we made clay "flower vases" and flowers for the moms. First we used air dry clay and molded it into a little vase...the vase could then hold the flower we were going to make. While the clay was still wet we placed little beads and different things to decorate the vase with. We waited a couple of days so the clay could really get firm and not break. After that, we painted the vases and let them dry. We also made paper flowers to place inside each of the vases...it turned out to be a lovely little gift!
