Who's That Girl?

Our first project was this adorable "string Art" glam girl! A bit of a challenge for the little ones, but they all did a wonderful job!

Well, That is another year finished!

We just had our last fashion show of the year! It was really fun and pretty! Our theme was "Project Funway" and our trophy was our usual handmade by me type. This year I made a canvas stuffed dressform, painted it PINK and added a jewel to the top. Each girl got her nickname on her trophy!

Hoppy Easter

This is our sweet little bunny project we made this week for Easter. The fabric is a soft berber with a crooked hand embroidered nose and button eyes. So Cute!

Wall Flowers

This weeks project was a beautiful Wall Flower! The hint for the guessing game in class was "coffee and cake", because we used coffee filters, (over 600 overall for twenty girls) and a cardboard cake circle for this big, lovely 3D Wall Flower! I hand dyed the coffee filters with watered down paint, and we glued them allover an 8" cardboard cake round, the type used in cake decorating. I used a snippet of chartreuse green chiffon as a hanger, glued to the back. I think it is a lovely Spring decoration. Darling for Easter, spring, girly wall decor', a door wreath....anywhere a touch of flowery punch would be enjoyed! Even the kindergartners could do this with ease! My 5th graders loved it too!

Hey! These girls can do ANYTHING!

Our Annual Fashion Show!!!!!!

Our Annual Fashion Show is coming up at the end of the school year!!!!! Our news letter will be coming home soon, watch for it! Each Diva needs a new pair of flip flops, any "diva" color, and she needs to bring her own hairbrush to the show! We will be making our Fashion Show t-shirt soon too! Yea!!!!!!!

A Birthday....and it looks like Rain!

This week, we celebrated one of our Diva's birthday! She was born on Feb 29th, LEAP YEAR!

Since she only has a real birthday every four years....we ate twinkies with frosting and sprinkles....and.....sang!

So we made it special with a "Birthday Cake" collage using antique wall paper, a bit of paint, and sparkle. Everyone made one in this class, and added her own birthdate! A sweet alternative to a monogram! Fun to display every year!

And....our other classes made this Darling cloud mobile with big sparkly stones as raindrops!

SOOOO Sweet! The face is hand stitched!

Spring Showers....brings flowers....etc!

If You Give A Mouse Some Corn........

I love this cute little mouse beanbag! We all made this cute mouse with fun printed fabrics and stuffed him with CORN! He is poseable, and sweet, and has a handstitched mouth and really LONG eyelashes! So fun!

Tweet Little Bird Quilting Project

My Cherokee (3rd. to 5th grade) age class made this sweet quilted
Birdy" wall hanging. We used a real twig, painted pink, as a hanging rod...along with vintage fabrics and silly hand stitching.

Hey Hot Stuff!!!

Well, it's been a while huh? We went speeding throught the holidays, even had some snow and ice that cancelled our last class before Christmas! (more later about a make-up of Wednesday's Class)

Anyway, I wanted to show the Darling project we are doing this week.

This is a cute little "Hot Stuffie" but it is stuffed with corn! It looks like an old fashioned Hot Water Bottle! You put it in the microwave and heat it up for a snuggly cozy buddy for these frosty days! So cute!

Next week's project is darling as well....something I have been meaning to do for a long time!!!

Hugs, Queen LaDiva and Miss Cadley

Sweet Little Watercolour

Hey, I still have lots of updates to do here, but I wanted to post this sweet little Snowman Watercolour that we did last week. We framed it in this cute white frame, and added some sparkly frosty glitter to the corner....just like frost on the window! They were so sweet, and a perfect way to start our "Sparkle Do's" season! We started out Christmas Hoodies today...they will go home next week.........talk soon,QLD

Diva Boo's!!!

Hey! We are starting our Whacky Fun Silly Halloween Projects this week! Yiiipppeee!!!

I Gotta Tell You...Last Week's Class Was For The Birds!!!!

We did this darling little canvas with a cool masking tape technique for our "Birch Trees" art. We masked out the trees, and painted our backgrounds. We removed the tape. Then detailed the trees. And, as you all know, we don't leave well enough alone!!! We added these adorable watercoloured (by me) birds to the trees. So sweet! I love the cute art projects we make in here! Like nothing else anywhere!!

Hugs! QLDiva
