What to do on a summer's day when the weather doesn't inspire you to go for outdoorsy activities? Why not organize a little arts & crafts workshop for your kid(s)?!
Now, my Lilia loves drawing and painting, but at 2 years old she is still a little too young for most of these lovely crafts tips I found on Martha Stewart's website. I can't wait to introduce her to them, though! They all look so fun to do, it honestly brings out the child in me. Martha Stewart has the best crafts ideas, for all ages - including grown-ups! Wouldn't you just have LOVED one of those books within a book when you were little?

ENVELOPE COLLAGE: Decorative and super-duper smart way for kids to get
organized once they hit the age where they collect all kinds of bits and pieces
that might otherwise easily end up in a pile somewhere.
