DIY for Grandma

My Grandma Hanchett's birthday is Monday.

It's sad, but I can't remember the last time

I actually gave my grandma a PRESENT

on her birthday.

Sure, the occasional card.

A phone call.

So, I decided this year, with Grandpa in the nursing home,

I thought Grandma could use some cheerfulness at her own home.

Since Pinterest is in my life now, I can find any kind of

DIY yourself project I want.

And I did!

The kids and I made this:

 First, I painted a canvas.

 Then, I cut hearts out of scrapbook paper I thought 

my grandma would like.

I enlisted the help of child labor to glue the hearts

to each other so that color was on each side.

I hot glued the hearts on, and then attached tulle.

Did you know that tulle is AWFUL to work with?

Awful.

 I can't wait to give this to her tomorrow.

Happy Birthday, Grandma! 
(Don't worry- she won't see this.  No computer)
