Crafting with the kids

Clare was given this beautiful book for Christmas.

She quickly decided what her first project would be, and drew up a design on paper. Buttons and fabric pens and a few hours later, she’d decorated a t-shirt.

You guessed it though, I was the one who had to sew on the buttons. Stella didn’t want to be left out of the action so dived into the button bag and came out with lots of teapot buttons in a variety of colours. So yes, I sewed them on too.  Have I ever mentioned how much I dislike sewing on buttons?

Both girls were very pleased with the finished result.
