Painted Canvas with Flowers


Today we used our favourite colours to paint skies on canvases.




Then, I used some decorated paper flowers (using scrapbooking accents) on tall popsicle sticks to glue to the canvas to make a picture for my bedroom. I had made the flowers over a year ago at my Nanny's house but they have been sitting in my closet until now.
My little sister painted stems on her "sky" and then glued flower and butterfly gems on her picture. It took alot of patience to get her to draw the stems because she is not very good at controlling how much paint she uses. In the end her picture will look beautiful in her bedroom. Give it a try!
