Tool Time at the County Fair


A couple of weeks ago, Matthew took Amelia to the County Fair whilst I went Stampin'. While they were there, Matthew sent me a photo to my phone, it was the one above. Home Depot was sponsoring a booth where kids could come and make something. Amelia chose a pencil box and with daddy's help, it turned out great. Afterwards, she received a certificate of completion, stickers to put on the box, and a pin showing that she made the pencil box. She also got to keep the apron, which she was excited about because now she matches Grandpa Rawe, who works at Home Depot in Texas.


When she got home, she couldn't wait to paint it, so that's exactly what she did. She picked a two-toned theme in pink and purple.



It turned out great and is going to be perfect for storing all of her favorite pencils. What a fun project and great daddy/daughter date!

Our little "Home Depot" girl seems to have a great talent for painting. What a great job! Hope we can see a picture of the finished product.
