Easy Peasy Play-Doh :Monsters:

Dear Loverlies,

Looking for a simple and {spunky} craftivity to do with your little one? Look no further. These are easy to make and of course the kids -love- their Play-Doh time.



You Need:

Play-Doh

Googly Eyes

Pipe Cleaners *cut into shorter pieces*



{Vocabulary Words}
head
eyes
ears
antennas 
pairs
one-ten (number words)

Directions:

Once you gather the materials, have your little shape the Play-Doh into a round monster. This would be a great time to discuss body parts such as head, eyes, antennas/ears. :)

Have your babe count out "two" eyes. You can even go the extra mile and teach him or her what a "pair" means. Kiddies are never too young to learn new vocabulary.




Now comes the antennas or ears. Whichever you prefer. Stick the pipe cleaners in and now the monster is made! For the older ones, work on counting by saying "Put _____(insert number) antenna(s) on the monster." Let them play :monsters: with their lovely creations.



Now go and make some Easy Peasy Play-Doh :Monsters: with your little(s) while teaching them new vocabulary that will make for a fun and educational experience.

xoxo,
L+K

Succulents + Everyday Table Decor

Dear Loverlies,

An eye-catching centerpiece on the kitchen table can make your table go from drab to fab. Here are some ideas to :spruce: up your table that won't break the bank.



Arranging items on a tray makes for an organized clustered look that we love. Don't forget to place it on top of a nice table runner. You know |burlap| is our favorite. We found our tray at Hobby Lobby along with the burlap flowers that are placed in a mason jar.




Mercury glass is always are :go to: so this owl pairs perfect with the look. 



Since {succulents} currently have our heart, we added them to the arrangement in a pot we found in our local Target Dollar Spot.  #weareobsessed



We hope this gave you the inspiration you need to make a stunning centerpiece for your table.
