If we got a nickel for every time we said "Pinterest" at work we would all be rich. But it has good stuff. It also helped with some fun things to do with the kids. The other day while at the craft store we finally picked up the pack of chalk pastels. Pinterest showed us that if you twist a chunk of wet hair and then run a chalk pastel over it...let it dry...and brush it out you get a streak of color. It's the fun of dye without the commitment. One shower later and it's all gone. It will be a fun new way for a little extra color in our lives should we need it. Emily was thrilled to wear the blue and green streaks in her pony that matched her outfit. I enjoyed the "Is that GREEN in your hair?!?" and look of horror that came from Leigh Ann at work.
Next Pinterest has been showing me tons of ideas for how to use Scrabble tiles to make jewelry. I took it one step further. I grabbed two cheap and (on sale) frames at the craft joint and glued the letters of the teachers' names onto them. A poem went inside the frame. They were perfect. These teachers deserved a little extra love for all they have done for the kids this year! Hey Moms...summer is here...Pinterest has tons of ideas for ways to make it awesome!!!
