Gonna Get Me one!

Tuesday, March 16, 2010
That's her goal, that is.. to get her a leprechaun!

She painted a yogurt container -- then I had to help as the paint was getting messy.  We waited for the paint to dry.  Then she taped on the black strip and made a buckle with gold paper.  We put an opening at the top too -- like a trap door.  It was tricky... an exact-o knife came in very handy.  (would have been better if it were sharp!)  I super glued the container onto a wrapped up tissue box and we waited for everything to dry some more.... (see the glue dripping down?)
While that was drying, she  glued some popsicle sticks together to make a ladder...

Then she painted rocks gold!
Gotta have a lot of those gold nuggets!
And then the super glue was out again....and glitter glue for the top of the trap door...
This is what she has so far!
A few days later.. .Viola!

A closer look:
Her signs are really cute.  One says: do not climb ladder and the other says, no gold in there.  Hee hee...
