Nothing like putting your mind to something to make it happen. After pretty much ignoring the studio the last few months (except for its double function as laundry room -- wish I could ignore that!), I finally cleaned it out a bit and made an effort to USE it. The space isn't heated, so it's cold in the winter. Maia doesn't seem to mind, but I do. Last winter I used a little space heater but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Oh well.
Here, Maia's using fingerpaints and the whole box of rollers, sponges, and scrubbies. Fun, fun. And not too much of a mess to clean up.
She also appropriated our cookie press (which I don't think I've ever used) for her playdough work. Apparently the attachments are great for stamping -- they have nice little handholds!
We'll have to try cookies, too, one of these days. Anyone have a recipe to use with cookie presses? Do you just use a sugar cookie dough or do you need something especially soft?
