Mother's Day Necklaces

Here's a quick, easy, (and inexpensive!) project we did in kindergarten that we added to the purses like we made last year (see previous post)- necklaces made out of metal washers!!!  The kids used old nail polish (and who doesn't have a ton of that laying around!) to paint a pretty design.  I thought that they'd just paint it all one color, or rush through it, but they really took their time! I picked up 72 washers at Menards for about $2 (I'm sure they are available elsewhere for a similar price), along with some thin ribbon, and wa-la!  A necklace for mom!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's day to all you mom's out there!  You are all truly amazing balancing everything it is you have to do!  I hope that today you were able to get a little R&R!

Here's what we made this year for mothers day...  I used scrapbook paper and I think they turned out really cute!  One kid even told me that it looked like his mom's real purse!

Inside they had to write about their mom.  The answers were priceless!  My mom is ___ years old ranged from 7 to 80! One kid wrote how is mom cooks good hot pockets!

I got the paper for FREE on TPT... all I did was add happy mother's day at the bottom!

Not sure about you, but our end of the year is crazy!  Hope to post more soon!
