As you know, Alyse loves a craft. I saw in a magazine that I get an idea for a Valentine's shirt using a paper heart doily and fabric paint. I showed her the picture and she was all about making her own Valentine's outfit. When I went to Hobby Lobby to get the supplies I also saw some cute/cheap pink t-shirt dresses. I grabbed those instead of a t-shirt.
The weather was really nice the other day so we got to work.
We used a glue stick to glue down the heart and then I gave her a sponge brush and let her carefully paint over the holes in the doily.
Once she was done I pulled up the doily and we let it dry.
All done.
Today she wore it to school. She was very proud of making her own Valentine's outfit.
BTW: I added the links to the patterns/tutorials that I used for the other outfits that I made in the last link.

I saw that in Family Fun, too! I saved it to try next year when Deb is a little bigger. By the time I saw it, she already had so many Valentine's outfits for this year!
Oh how fun! I love that you let Alyse join in! I bet she was super proud!
