Little Vases

From early spring through to late autumn, my girls pick the sweetest little bouquets of flowers for me. It is another one of those perfect little girl things to do that I try to savor with all my heart as I know their beautiful offerings will not last forever.

When I found these little bottles in an antique shop last month, I knew they would be perfect for spring arrangements.

Using Martha Stewart Crafts Multi-Surface Acrylic Craft Paint, the girls painted their own designs onto the glass.

I had just read this article and it reminded me not to hover or 'help' the girls with their art.        I am completely in love the dainty flowers and pretty designs that the girls made.

These little vases sit on my kitchen window sill and make me smile every time I walk by.
