Wizard Week: Pop-Up Potion Bottles and a Wrap Up!

Hey there, you magical creatures! Wizard Week was so much fun! In case you missed any of the magical art projects from Wizard Week, don't worry. I've got them all for you right here! On Friday, we wrapped up the week with these Pop-Up Potion Bottles. All you'll need is two pieces of paper, markers, crayons, scissors and glue!
On Monday, we kicked it all off with our Wizard Selfies. These were the cutest little wizards you ever did see!
On Tuesday, we created Baby Dragon Puppets and, even though it was a little tricky, that was easily everyone's favorite project of the week!
On Wednesday, we drew castles!  
Thursday's adventure included everyone's favorite: salt dough clay! I walk you through the recipe on this day so just have your supplies handy!
I hope y'all enjoyed Wizard Week as much as I did!

Let's Make a R2D2 Collagraph Print!

Yesterday I shared a Talking Baby Yoda project and it was so fun that I wanted to make a project based on my other fave Star War's character: R2D2! For this, you'll need a cereal box, scissors, glue, markers and foil. When doing the printing portion, you'll need paper and a way to dampen your paper. I use a sponge but a spray bottle would work as well. If you pull a print and it turns out too dry looking, try it again and dampen a new piece of paper a little more. It was just needing more water. If it looks too blurry, try adding less water. You'll get the hang of it with practice. Here we go:
Have fun!

Snack-tastic Chefs Week!

Who is ready for another week of art-making! I'm pretty stoked about this week as it is based on my favorite thing: snacks! And, despite the fact that I'm not such a great chef myself (have you even seen Season 3, Episode 3 of Nailed It!?), we are going to be BAKING COOKIES on Friday! Which is all kinds of funny as the judges spit out my cookie that I made on T.V. Let's just hope y'all don't do the same. 

So get read for another fun week and be sure and share this with friends and family so they can join the fun too. We'll kick things off with a Chef Selfie!
On Tuesday, I'll be sharing a lot of paper folding and paper sculpture techniques in this Hamburger Sculpture project. 
 On Wednesday, let's make a Salt Dough Pizza! 
On Thursday, I'll show you how to draw a 3-D cake! It's a piece of cake! 
And on Friday, we are gonna bake! I'm so excited about this!

To join me live, you can find me on my Instagram and my Facebook page. If you miss the LIVE session, no worries. You can catch the video the next day on my YouTube channel! Be sure and subscribe. I'll be sharing lessons there (in addition to these) all week for Mother's Day! 
See you real soon!
