DIY Super Hero Style T-shirt

Thinking about getting ahead start for my boy's Book Week parade, as has already been decided that he wanted to go as Super Hero, I had plans to make the entire outfit and started to work hard on the top and shield - only to find out there was not going to be a parade. After the inevidable sadness I thought I should go ahead and make the t-shit part of the outfit anyway so that it could be worn as a normal t-shirt, so I started to do it - armed with no more that a standard kitchen sponge, a washed styrofoam tray that you get with sausages or mince, a slice of cardboard and stardard acrylic paints (just happen to have scarlet lake red and titaniuum white) and a roll of masking tape.The blue t-shirt was stolen from his bedroom draw.

Home made Christmas diarama with reversible backdrop (by a 7yr old)

Getting right into the Christmas spirit, my little boy decided that he wanted to get creative after school one day. Of course he could have made any themed display, but since it was Christmas  - Without any warning or questioning, he just put his bag down, got the craft box that was still in the lounge room and created this in an hour or so. He wanted the cardboard box from when we went shopping for some reason and now we know why!

Realistic Looking Angel Wings

Ever thought about how cool it would be if you could make some angel wings that are unique and not like the bought ones? Well after having to think on my feet and make something that night with what I had around the house because all the shops were sold out of them, these Angel wings worked perfectly for my little girls' Christmas play, even if they did take me approx. 5 hours to do and was flying by the seems of my pants in the construction of them.
