NEEDS A BAG TO SHLEP MANY ITEMS?


Grab a bucket.

Use a pail.

Going to the beach?

Think of a new twist. Why not fill your bucket with items needed for your time there?

Having a friend for the night?

Why not put together a welcome can filled with various items for your overnight guests?

If you can bag items, you can can them too!

At full view items...



Looking for something specific in the kitchen can take time.
Why not make of the reverse a simple and practical display of creativity?

Pick your cans.
Find a board and nail the cans anyway you see fit
keeping in mind the sizes of the items to be displayed in the cans later.

Try it...

Buckets filled with friends...


Buckets come in various colors and for less than a dollar the choice is plenty...
Use them to store just about anything.
Why not create a place for stuffed animals to hang in on a top book shelf?


;-)


TUNA CAN DO MORE...



A messy draw can be easily remedied with a few---tuna cans.
Washed well and dried in full sun...several rows of small or large tuna cans can offer an organized backdrop for small items usually tangled and mixed all over.


Try it.

P.S-DO make sure that the rims are well trimmed. I would not want any sharp edge turning into a trap every time you aim for an item-IN THE CAN.

SETTING UP BOUNDARIES...




A creative way to say 'KEEP OUT' without hurting feelings.

Make a door tag for Mom and Dad-brother and sister
and make more for friends as presents...

And put them to work holding notes for the family on the fridge.

RECYCLED NEWSPAPER AND BROKEN VASES

ANYTHING GOES!
LET YOUR IMAGINATION GO WILD.
STEP OUT IN STYLE...YOUR OWN MADE UP ONE!

GARDENING MADE EASY...



MAKE ONE STEPPING STONE...OR MORE
CREATE A CLUTTER OR A PATH
SEE HOW YOU CAN HAVE A GARDEN
WITHOUT THE DAILY CHORES...

STEPPING STONE FOR THE GARDEN AND AS GIFTS

Using nature and its free elements are material...to create


At Foundation Tiga in Haiti,
creation creates magic...always!

It allowed ample dirt outside
mixed with water from the faucet
a perfect medium

turning the walls all around them into
an enormous canvas that saturday morning!

"Viv Tiga
Viv Ayiti
Viv kreyasyon!"

The joys of using-colors...


Plant an art piece



A simple frame filled dirt pile can become a wonderful area
for kids to experience the wonders
of growing a garden.

This patch of course is a
'garden bed'
but the sky is the limit as to what
your project may become...

Use your imagination!

Comments are welcomed if you have any new ideas about a project
Or suggestions that may keep a child busy creating.

Finger puppets!



Felt-glue-markers and some imagination...
That is all you need to create a family
And-put on a special show for all.
Make your next puppet show more special...

Give a hand...




Cookie dough can become wonderful goodies to eat
Or very special give away treats...

Give a hand!

GREETINGS MADE



Don't have a card?
Make one or two or three or four...
All you need is
I MA GI NA TION.

STIR..FUN


Engaging our kids in small kitchen chores can be fun...
Mixing dough for cookies,
baking and eating them is a good reward.


YES I CAN- CAN CAN...



Gather as many empty cans as possible over the week
Wash them well and let them dry...
On a table, desk or a shelf
Fill with crayons and pencils...
A simple and recycled- alternative for your desks.

Greetings all,

In keeping up with my passion, entertaining through culture and spontaneous interaction, I am proposing an agenda geared to children from ages seven to twelve. Engaging them by means of creation, your child will have fun making better usage of- spare time. During the course of a four hour gathering on predicted days of the weekend, and week days during holidays and summer, or pre-reserved slots I will recommend new ways of keeping your children motivated positively while completing a project. While sharing a well supervised space, each session filled on first come first registered basis will provide your children new possibilities to experience arts and crafts through its many creative facets with a twist of fun and purpose. A blog/newsletter in relation to the detailed program will be available as updates made of pictures of the children and their projects will be shared regularly.
