arts & craft sunday

sometimes i feel like i'm spiraling my life to out of control...like i'm losing the grasp of reality so when my lil sis was working on a project for her speech class, i decided to help her b/c it looked like a fun project.

So my lil sis had to do a demonstration project and she wanted to show to make paper mache. She made a turkey since it's almost thanksgiving and to show that she can make more than a turkey, she also made a terrier dog. It was fun watching her make them and fun helping out too.

Plastering the balloon.

letting it dry

after paper macheing it w/ white paper, it was ready to paint!

added the tail and crown and voila!

now is the dog's turn

a terrier-minus-the-cute-whiskers

We had excess paint in left over, and we decided to paint something for fun ^-^

My lil sis painted our Monkey King statue.

I painted an autumn tree since we mostly had mostly fall colors.

Now to go face reality..::sigh::
