My little artists

After school yesterday, me, Nodi and McFizzle decided to do some art work Nodi as the little man he is sat on the table and started drawing away.

McFizzle on the other hand had other plans. Drawing on paper seemed boring to him.

Toddlers just love drawing on everything and anything that is not paper! I wonder why?!

Art, before & after

I wish I was this creative. Turning an old print into something more modern. I love it!

Keepsakes, the lasting memories

Having a baby is one of the most magical moments of your life. It practically turns your world upside down. The moment you hold your baby in your arms for the first time, you wonder how could such a tiny bundle  create so much emotions within you. And you wonder if it’s possible that you’ve actually brought such a tiny, beautiful being into this world. Cherish every memory by creating sweet keepsakes.

I love the idea of this keepsake. Passing by it everyday will surely put a smile on your face. Create your own keepsake frame and display them around the house. You can have each frame carry something different from every child. A onesie, first dress, mittens or shoes.

All you need is:

A pretty frame

A baby item

A picture.

We would love to see your creations so please do share You can send the pictures to info@oleanaboutique.com
