While we were on holiday and visiting Nana and Grandad, I wanted to get a quick craft project we could complete away from home. I dropped into a dollar shop and picked up some supplies. A great little project that can be used later to keep a 5 year old’s little treasures in.
Things you will need:
A plain wood heart shaped jewelry box
Red acrylic paint
Paint brush
Gemstone stickers
Instructions:
Paint the box red all over. Wait to dry. In hindsight, we should have dried the box open, as it got stuck shut. Daddy fixed this though, with his pocket knife. Stick on the gemstone stickers as desired. These ones did not stay stuck very well, so we will likely put a coat of mod podge over it all to keep them stuck.
What the kids can do:
Miss 5 tackled this project all by herself.
