Getting back to routine post vacation is hard for me – super hard. Especially these days when I am solo parenting (what is solo parenting you ask? I suggest you read this excellent post by Naomi).

As we settled in at home we did things we love doing as a mother-daughter team – play with paint, glue and glitter. Here is what we came up with.

Xylophone card made with drinking straws and foam for a friend’s birthday party (our gift was all things related to music)

Paper plate crabs

The crabs go to Artsy-Craftsy March
