PC #1 - Canvas Fingerpainting

 This was one of the cutest ideas I've come across that I thought Elie would love...and she did!  We scheduled a play date and had a few friends join us in the fun.  First, I taped off her name using masking tape on canvas.  Then I let her paint a single color (I didn't want to end up with a brown canvas after all of the colors mixed together). 

She covered the whole canvas in pink, so then we let it dry.  Next she did green (green and pink are the colors in her room), only I told her to not cover the canvas this time.  I think she did a great job.

We let it sit overnight and then peeled the tape off.

 Now look at this masterpiece.

We absolutely loved this craft.  I would like to try this again on a smaller canvas for labels for different thing such as dress-up area or craft area.
