Here is a great idea for a present for young children. These are artist canvases that we have painted to match the decore of the houses they will be hung in. We have then cut out the kids name in some coordinating fabric and stuck that to the top. We edged the letters with fabric paint (the stuff you squeeze out of the little containers – kindy glitz would work too). Then we just staped some ribbon around the front, attached flowers with buttons on them at various points to secure the ‘railing’ and then decorated little pegs that will hold the kids artwork that they bring home from preschool or kindy. We saw these in a trendy kids department store in Bondi and they wanted around $50 ……… we did these for less than $10 a piece, using mostly what we had here at home…………wish I had these when my kids were little. When i return from holidays I will show you the ‘art gallery’ that my sister and i have designed for my girls room, so their big girl artwork can also get displayed…………can you see where I used the big shot on this project?? You seriously need one of these machines…….
