The little art projects the boys bring home each week from their day
program aren't usually anything that I care to keep around.
But these little glass bottles of sand make me smile and add a touch
of color to my window at the kitchen sink. They didn't have names
on them, but I'd guess Alex's is the center one. I can just hear some
one say, "Whoa, buddy! Let's add another color there
with the purple!" haha. How cheery they are!
♥
You know always I have seen theses sand bottles and I find really beauties.
ReplyDeleteI miss the times Esperanza made arts things she make beauty things but now is working!
I love these bottles Betsy:)
Aren't the sweet? I'm enjoying them in the sunshine!
DeleteAre beautiful and I love purple too:))
ReplyDeleteI think Alex does, too! haha.
DeleteGood evening Gloria
DeleteMy compliments of the season to you.
I trust you are well. Oh give us a hug!! There
Those are great! One of them would make me smile too, but three? That's just great!
ReplyDeleteIt's an instant collection. ha.
DeleteThey look great and interesting colours. The boys did well and brightened up your kitchen window sill. :)
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the art room looked like when they were all done with that project! ha. I'm glad it was there and not at home! ha.
DeleteI take it they are over generous with their application of paints and materials and perhaps a little may be spilled! LOL
Deleteyes. very much. haha.
DeleteWhenever I pop back and see those bottles in your window I just want to call them Tom, Dick and Harry!! . . . . well I got one name right! ROFL
DeleteDid you see the funny videos?
Feeling much better today after my flu-like feeling yesterday! Much more energy and bounce today!
No, I haven't watched the videos yet.
DeleteGlad you're feeling much better today, though. I've lost my energy and bounce. Did you take it? lol....
Better have another cup of coffee....
Hope you get your energy and bounce back after the coffee.
DeleteEnjoy the rest of the day.
They're lovely!! Real works of beautiful art - fun and vivid! Yay! Take care
ReplyDeletex
They are fun and vivid! They make me smile. :)
DeleteThey look great on the windowsill, especially as a trio! xx
ReplyDeleteI think you're right...a single one wouldn't have the same impact!
DeleteHow sweet. You know Jaya (Jill's husband) sells black sand with gold specks from their beach to people back East who use the black sand with gold specks for candles. Your little bottles remind me of those candles.
ReplyDeleteNo kidding! If I knew that, I totally forgot! How very cool!
DeleteOh how neat! I'm sure the boys enjoy seeing their work on display :) instant collection, how nice, much better than one lonely one!:)
ReplyDeleteI think one would have been lonely, too! haha.
DeleteGreat job....and like you said.....better at school than at home.....hahaha!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your evening...
Cheers!
Linda :o)
One time they made papers with glue and glitter and then stuffed them into their lunch boxes. We saw glitter for weeks!
DeleteI love the sand rainbows - very festive!
ReplyDeleteYes, they are...the make me smile. :)
DeleteThe boys did great! I like them too.
ReplyDeleteI think they did a pretty good job! Hope they had fun doing it. ha.
DeleteVery nice :-)
ReplyDeleteAren't they? Pretty bright it the sun!
DeleteLooks like they brighten up the place
ReplyDeleteWith their rainbow embrace
And looks to be the same amount of each in the center one
All even, which I find fun
I noticed that, too!
DeleteMy OCD can smile like you! ha.
ooo they found some pretty bottles...and i love the sand art...such vibrant colors...
ReplyDeletemy boys have made those someplace before....
I think this is a first for us! Pretty fun!
DeleteI still have sand art around my house from when my kids were in school. I can never bring myself to ever get rid of them even though my kids are in their thirties, late twenties. They are way too precious!
ReplyDeleteAw, that's so cute. Some things just have to stay forever!
DeleteI love them! The bottles are pretty enough on their own, but the colored sand adds to them so much more!
ReplyDeleteI think so, too...the sand really adds a lot!
DeleteWow...these are treasures for sure! I like the different shapes of the bottles and the way they layered their sand : )
ReplyDeleteThey make a nice little group, don't they? :)
DeleteWhat a great way to display these treasures! The kids in our Sunday School class LOVE to do sand art, but for the very reasons you said, I don't do it very often. It is a mess. But, fun! Thank you so much for popping in on my blog. I am taking a break from writing posts, but not from my favorite part of blogging - reading other people's! BTW, have you finished your photography classes?
ReplyDeleteI was hoping you were just taking a break and nothing was wrong. :) Yes, all finished with the classes. Now I just need to practice!
DeleteThose are really cool! What other kinds of projects come home with them... The ones you don't save.
ReplyDeleteOh, you know. Things like yarn glued onto paper plates.... haha.
DeleteBeing an art teacher of the past, students love to watch the colorful being poured. I would get students who would pour out and just watch it go, not realizing anything but it was fun to see the color being put out on the palette. They could get a cup of paint to use on a small apple or pear. They are nice results to see in the window.
ReplyDeleteThey really did turn out nice, didn't they? I'm really please with them!
DeleteI'm with Alex...you can never have too much purple. :) They are pretty!!
ReplyDeleteI love that you know who did which one. Very cool.
