About a month or so ago I read a post at
The Homeschool Classroom about a glitter-tree craft that I stored away in my brain to do with Abby. We finally got around to it this week. (I had completely forgotten on what site I found this so I had to go digging through my Reader looking for it. Of course it was one of the ones at the bottom.)

It was actually really simple to do, and since I used an old cookie sheet, there really wasn't any mess. The only part that I found hard was drawing the leaves onto the cardboard. I am not an artist, so we just got leaves that were the basic tear shape. I did attempt a maple leaf, but they looked so pathetic I didn't have the heart to cut them out.

I love all of the thought she put into the glitter color :)
We've done similar crafts in November for Thankfulness.
So cute!!!
LOL She is very generous with the glue, too. Good grief, how do you live with all that cuteness all day!?? She'd get away with all kinds of stuff at my place. :)
Thanks guys! I think she's super cute too, which makes up for the harder times I think...
