When we bought Ethan's "big boy" bed and bedspread, we had this great idea to paint his room blue and put red and orange stripes at the top to match the bedspread. Well, after some paint struggles with his room, we had to ditch the stripe idea and move on to plan B...which turned out to be much more fun anyway. We bought 3 canvas boards, 2 paintbrushes, stripped Ethan down to a diaper, and turned him loose with the red and orange paint we had already bought. His paintings are definitely originals, and look pretty cool in his room. So watch out Pollock, Ethan's giving you a run for your money.

ReplyDeletedon't you find it amazing that he picked orange. just a shade darker and it would be burnt orange. i'm so glad that he's developing burnt orange blood early!

Cute, cute, cute. I've tried that with Addi before, but she really likes to mix colors too much, so we just end up with a lot of brown! Maybe Ethan can give her some lessons!
