Father's Day Crafting

Now that we won't give away any surprises, I present to you our first attempt at freezer paper stenciling. We're really late to that party, I know, but I can see why it's so popular now. We followed the directions in The Creative Family, and it was easy and super fun.

Betsy with stencils. She came up with the ideas of the images, I did the cutting and ironing, and she did the stenciling. The whole project, start to finish (except for drying time) was completed during one of Abigail's naps.

I mean, it took months. Months and months of meticulous and tedious painting, Matthew and Dad!
