Bring Home Crafts


How do you know the Spawn is getting bored?

She texts you an SOS message at work to "bring home crafts".

I'm going to have to get creative and find some useful ways for her to spend her time.

I wound up buying a couple of canvases, some stencils, and acrylic paint for her to get creative with. I'm actually kind of excited to see what she comes up with.

She's a pretty creative little stinker.....

If I come home to a canvas full of artistically painted virus images, I'm taking away those paints!

My first thought when I had the idea to do canvases, and I'll admit I laughed when I thought it, was she'll probably paint some stupid viruses or something on these things.

Which led to me picking out stencils....

    Sounds like she is creative and imaginative. Good traits.
That she is. I miss the days when she drew horses and flowers, though. LOL Her latest art is a bit.... unsettling.

    home crafts it is

    Kenny Loggins - "Celebrate Me Home"

    Home for the holidays,
    I believe I've missed each and every face,
    Come on and play my music,
    Let's turn on the love light in the place
    It's time I found myself,
    Totally surrounded in your circles
    Whoa, my friends
    Please, celebrate me home,
    Give me a number,
    Please, celebrate me home
    Play me one more song,
    That I'll always remember,
    And I can recall,
    Whenever I find myself too all alone,
    I can sing me home.
She's also painting her own little version of that Elmo in the fiery depths of hell. In her version, Elmo is pink and the fire is blue.

    I have a few walking sticks I need to make. They are dry and just waiting for me to bring out the character in them.
Do you carve them? I'm always fascinated by wood carvings.

    Paint? 🤔

    My oldest g-girl is a little artist, I'm sure she's making a huge mess over at the other g-parents house.
I was pleasantly surprised to not come home to a mess tonight... She's still painting away at the kitchen counter.

    Quoting 69ereatwetpussy:
    Have her paint a self portrait she how she see her self when looking in the mirror. I'm far from a painter I could only imagine what i'ld paint.
    Guess it to early to plant a vegetable garden that would be time consuming and in the end good eats.
    Here a thought does she live home have her clean her room I mean wash the walls take thing off the walls .
    Buy new color for the walls have her paint her own room.
    If she never done it before she'll learn just make Shure she cover the furniture and floor where she is rolling. My dad tought all of us how to paint we each got the a wall he did the ceiling.
    We turn on a record player with albums we liked and turned it up my two sisters and I. We started the Rock and roll paint party back in the in1960and 70s.
    It good to learn the simple things in life
    good luck with her i'ld love to paint a room with you xoxoxoxThomas
Right now she's painting a picture of Elmo in the depths of hell... LOL Apparently she found a picture online. Good lord...

The funny thing is.... When we went to the museum last summer, I took a picture of her head sticking out of a virus backdrop. I laughed at the time....

If I knew then what I know now.
