I feel fairly certain if you looked up the word procrastination you would probably not only find my name but maybe even my picture. We have known for over a month that Mal had to make an animal project out of some type of can. She has been asking me about it for the past few weeks and I honestly didn't get that excited about getting it done because I had to think on what we could do. As I looked in her agenda this morning I discovered that the thing was due tomorrow! The great news is that I Melissa Dawn work WAY better under pressure. If I know that I have a week I will wait until the last day. Thank God that he gave me just a little bit of talent because he knew with my procrastination that I was certainly going to need it. The bad news is that I am passing it on to my children! SCARY!
I looked up several cute pictures today on the Internet of things we could make and finally came up with using a milk carton. I originally thought we could make a kola bear out of a milk carton but Mal insisted on a peacock. So guess what?! We made a peacock.
It was super fun to make! We took a milk carton and painted it black and then painted blue glitter over the black. Then we made a trip to Michael's Crafts and bought some feathers and google eyes. I must say this little darling is super cute! I think she was proud of it and I hope that she learned a little about peacocks and not about waiting until the night before to create this project.
Only Mal and I would think to put sparkles on a peacock!
One happy girl and her project!
