Penguin Tote Bags at Irvington

Wow!  We had a line out the door for this craft time!  We had to turn many away as we only plan for a certain number.  The kids really enjoyed this craft and spent most of an hour creating.  I loved listening to a little boy who hummed while he worked, and was thrilled that the boys liked this craft so much.  Take a look at the gorgeous results!

Snow Painting at Niles

The children were excited to paint with snow to create these adorable paintings to take home.  As you can see, some of the children wanted a lot more snow on their paintings than others, and one has taken snow art to a whole new level with his writing!

Make Your Own Beads at Fremont Main for Adults Only

A very excited group of ladies arrived to learn how to make their own beads.  They had a great time, with lots of laughter, creative time, and socializing at their tables.  Ladies are getting to make new friends when they come to these programs, and have commented on how nice it is to get away and just have some quiet, creative time to themselves.  Awesome!  They were bead making machines tonight too!

The kids loved playing with the paint and creating this keepsake for gift giving.  The parents really enjoyed the gift they were going to receive as well.

Framed Art for Gift Giving at Portola Valley Library

The children, and the parents loved this program!  They created beautiful art, that we framed and wrapped so caregivers or parents couldn't see what it was, making for a great surprise.  The children loved being able to really surprise the person they chose to give this gift to.
