Lil W and I started Mommy & Me preschool.
And with preschool, came art projects. Art projects that make a Momma proud.
I decided I needed a cute way to display the precious pieces I bring home each week.
I also mentioned how I am slowly but surely re-doing Lil W’s room. Primary colors. Cars. Trucks. Balls. All things Boy. So I thought this project would be the perfect way to hang up his goodies in his room–once my fridge iscompletely covered, that is.
3 wooden plaques {purchased at Michael’s}
Mod Podge
Sponge brush
Scrapbook paper
Crayon
Hot glue
3 clothes pins
1. Place the paper pattern side down on top of the wood plaque.
2. Use the edge of the crayon to trace around the edge of the paper in the shape of the plaque. This is so you know exactly how big to cut the paper.
3. Cut out three squares.
4. Apply Mod Podge to the face of the plaque.
5. Place the paper on the plaque and smooth out the bubbles.
6. Hot glue the clothes pin into place.
And that’s all there is to it–seriously. I still need to add one of those thingies that lets me hang the plaque on the wall–and I probably should have done that before I made them, but I tend to work backwards, ah well.
My son, the artist.
Who ever would have thought that a little sponge painting and stacked square papers could bring tears to my eyes.
I guess that’s motherhood.
Happy Crafting!

Super cute idea!!! Jake and I started Mommy & Me preschool this week too and we are LOVING it!! I must say it never gets old to either read about (from awesome mommas like you) or talk to other moms that are going through the same phase in life as me! And I had to smile because we haven’t picked up a lunch box for Jake yet, but we saw the Elmo one like Lil W and that was the one Jake wanted to get. 😉

Cute craft! I think that I’ll do something similar to display my boy’s artwork. Have you ever posted pictures of W’s bedroom? I’m getting started on creating my son’s big boy room and need some more inspiration!

Malinda

Awwww…precious!!
Anna @ The Guiltless Life
Hahaha it’s so true! Things become so much more precious when you know they were created by someone you love! And that idea is adorable – I might make one for my room with a more grown-up scrapbook paper pattern and just use it to display purses or anything! Thanks!
Dyna Ly
LOVE IT!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Meli
I simply adore this. I can handle this project. And I must!!!! We have crafts and art work coming outta the wa-zooooo!!!!!
Kristen
Since I am horrible with crafts I usually just live vicariously through you but this one I may be able to tackle and I love it. This would be perfect for both of my girls and all of the many things they want to display.
Thanks to sharing!

I love this idea. I’ve been trying to decide how I want to display My Girl’s art work too, this is perfect. I’ve never heard of mommy and me preschool. I like that idea, I’ll have to see if they have that near me.

Oh, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! I’m saving it for when my little N is big enough to make masterpieces. 🙂
brittany @lovestitched
I think what kills me is that he is OLD enough to be doing “art” for a “preschool” aaaahhhh stop growing lil w!

So cute!! I have an idea….maybe you could paint a section of his “new” room with magnetic paint, then cover with his wall color…make these mod podge blocks into magnets and hang them there instead of putting wall hangers on them and hanging them on the wall that way? Just a thought, that I figured would be easier than trying to put hangers on them now that they are done…almost:)

These are SO cute! I can’t wait to make some for myself 🙂

I’m in charge of crafts at my MOPS group, we just made something similar at our last meeting! We took a Lowe’s brand yardstick, drilled a hole at each end, glued 2 clothes pins–each pin had 3 silver rhinestones, then we gave each mom 3 clothes pins and they glued wooden shapes to those and painted them. We had metallic and primary colors. It turned out cute<3 we sent each mom home with 2 dry wall screw that way they had everything they needed.
