I decided to revisit an old post from Grandmother Wren’s first blog - an October afternoon of crafting with the “only three” year old Miss Maya. (she scolded me at lunch today for giving her a plastic spoon to use. “Do you remember I am five? I’m not a baby – I’m a kid!”
I guess kids don’t use plastic spoons…? )

A bittersweet read for me, filled with fond memories of little girls who grow too fast -
A good craft to share for this week’s Craft It Wednesday -

Rain, Glitter and Ghosts – Saturday, October 20, 2007

A rainy day – a great day to work on some Halloween projects. We painted and glittered a tiny pumpkin, then decided to make hand print and foot print ghosts. Very Spooky! And fun. And easy.

I painted the bottom of Maya’s foot white and she painted the bottom of Grammy’s foot white. We both stepped onto a piece of black paper, then did the same with the palms of our hands.

I was prepared with a container of wet wipes to remove the paint from our hands and feet on the spot – paint footprints would be Most Unfortunate on the carpet.
We waited for the paint to dry, added eyes with a black sharpie marker and painted all over the place with silver glitter glue.

Splendidly Spooktacular!
