I love to create and think outside the box. Usually my ideas are simple yet also original. For example:
Let me tell you about a recent outing with my daughter Cassandra.
In the beginning of February, my daughter Cassandra wanted to make a special Valentine box for her school party. The kit that we were going to buy was sold out. As a result, we decided to walk around Michael's craft store and find another craft to keep her busy and a cute box for valentine cards.
We came up with the perfect solution. We bought a simple wood bucket to paint and decorate. Cassandra also loves turtles. We painted the bucket a bright pink and glued turtles and hearts on the side. We also bought matching ribbon and attached a sign that said
"My Heart Belongs to Turtles"
Like I said before, a simple solution, but a cute one. The bucket has a great handle and classmates can drop the Valentine in the bucket instead of trying to put it into a small opening of a box.
Good luck coming up with your own creative project!
