Crafting With My Granddaughter


I am finding that having my granddaughters at the shop with me every day is a great bonding experience. My youngest is still too small to craft with but she sure enjoys all the pretty things we have. Now Avery, on the other hand, is loving every aspect of it. When we were setting up she was excited to dig in and clean and help put things together. We have been working on flower arrangements together and she absolutely loves it. She has a good eye for placement and color combinations as well. At least one a week she insists on getting out the broom and mop and cleaning and she makes sure I remember to water our flowers by the front door. I decided last night when we were done with our teapot flower arrangement to make her a pair of earrings. She was so happy to have a pair that I made her. I think next I will let her make her own. These are memories that will forever be with her as special times with Grandma. I know I still to this day cherish the memories of doing things like this with my grandmas. Her maternal grandmother passed away before she was born so I feel the need to give both of them extra time and memories. I am truly blessed to have them and am thankful for them every day.
