I just wanted to pop in to show you what I made for my favorite little nephew, Gavin, for Valentine's Day! My mom order some vinyl wall decals and they came in a little cardboard tube, which she gave to me to craft with. When it came time to send Gav some Valentine's Day goodies, I thought it would be a perfect little canister to mail to Arkansas.
I covered it in gesso, then painted the tube into Sir Topham Hatt from Thomas and Friends. When he was done, I popped off the top (his hat) and filled it with flimsy paperback books and a handwritten note.
He loves his Sir Thomas Hat, by the way! (And no, that's not a type....that's what he calls Sir Topham Hat.) We love you!
ReplyDeleteMegan, You need to do more of these. I will save all my tubes for you. Keep em coming. LOVE it!
