Go Nuts Over These Animals

Posted by Christine on July 11th, 2009 at 11:52am

I have five nieces and two nephews. Some of you may already know that, but I love them so much. Only four of them live in the same state as me…actually, right down the street from me, while the other three live in Minnesota. Any way, whenever they come to the house I always want to do something fun with them. All the coloring and all the making jewelry is getting a little old, they’re getting bored with it. So I ran into this really cute walnut animal craft. You use the shell of a Walnut along with some paints, felt and a few other materials.

I really think if I work on this with the kids they’ll really love it. Of course, everyone has to make their own because why would they share? I thought I’d share these with you. I mean really, how cute are they? If you have any cute projects like this that you want to share please feel free to share them with me, I might use it with my nieces and nephews.
