Can you believe I let my daughter use a
permanent marker??
She doesn't use them all the time...but does use them a lot!
She is pretty good about only using them on paper.
Gluing cotton balls on the plate for the beard...

Mel prefers to sit on the table rather than on a chair during craft time.
It works for her, so it works for me!

After making Santa, B said, "Mommy, let's make an elf."
I, of course, said, "Um...sure!"
"Elves weren't really in the plan but what is Santa without his elf anyway??"

Mel refused to hold her projects up so I could take a picture so this is as good as it gets.

The elves turned out pretty good considering I flew by the seat of my pants!

I attached some yarn to the back of them and they are hanging from the window latches in the toy room.
Now I can say, "Santa's watching you!" and I won't be fibbing!
