dollar tree has all the fun!

I can't even remember how long we have had this little easel. I DO remember it was a random trip to Dollar Tree to grab seasonal items, snacks, fillers, or whatever. She wanted a tiny easel for her room to change out when she changes out her room decor for each season or holiday. Done. $1 for something cute and easy that we can enjoy together!

The chalkboard markers were on sale during a yarn run at Michael's, so this little easel really was a cheap and easy way to keep her entertained. This summer she wanted to try to draw fruit. I must say that for someone drawing freehand on a tiny chalkboard, she nailed it! I grabbed a skewer stick and got it wet so we could wipe away some of the color for details. It turned out better than expected. 

I even googled fruity summer sayings until we found one she liked. Here is to hoping for a sweet summer time! It has arrived! This year it is especially well deserved and exciting because we have fun plans all summer long. We hope everyone has a sweet summer time while school is out!
