Craft-Lobsters

I saw these lobsters a long time ago on some wonderful blog in cyberspace (I have become a huge blog stalker!) I have wanted to do them for a long time. Today it rained all day and the boys were ready to do something while Josh was at school. We decided to do it and they absolutely loved it. It was really fun and easy!
Here is one of the finished products.

This is what they look like before we added the little extras. Two hands and a foot-done!


The boys loved getting "painted." They laughed so hard as I painted their hands and feet, I guess it tickled :)
Palmer is to the point in his life that he will not let me help him with most things. He did a great job!

Can you be the Mother to my kids? I can't handle messy projects - can I send them over your way so they can get messy?

These were surprisingly not as messy as you would think. I bought kids washable paint, which is thinner than normal paint, kept wet paper towels on hand and immediately washed their hands and foot off. It was so much fun!

This is so cute! We have a family get-together in Cape Cod every summer, and this would be the perfect craft to set up for all the kids one evening. I love it :)
