The first Valentine's Box

First grade has been a lot of fun for Hailey. She is enjoying school, and is learning so much. I love having her read to me for a change!! :) First grade is still bringing a few "firsts" to our house. This week...it is the first Valentine's box. It was Hailey's homework for this week and at first she just wanted to take plain white paper and draw on it. Nothing wrong with that....and she does a great job at it....but I presented a few ideas to her on how we could be more creative! :) Poor little girl had no idea what she was getting into.

She decided she wanted to make a crayon box since it was for school. I was okay with that!!! So, we started covering the box, and before we knew it....it was done and looked amazing. Thanks to some of my scrapbooking tools, it was a "work of art!" :) She is so excited to take the box to school tomorrow!!! :)
