~Front Porch Pretty~

This week we chose to make something to decorate our front porch! 

Things we used for this project:

~ Floral wire, this comes in many different colors. 

We chose green for a summery feel:) 

 ~Small wire cutters 

For adult use only

~Small amount of hubby's fishing line.

He will never know I promise;)

~Any beads of your choice.

Large plastic ones were used to accommodate the children.

_________________________________________________________________________

Cut & loop the bottom of your wire using wire cutters. 

                                                                Make spiral shape.

Let the children add the beans one by one down the spiral shaped wire. This is fun as they pick different colors to add and take the beads "down, down down" to the bottom. 

This helps utilize fine motor skills and also learning colors.

Each day we take a break to do our morning chores. The chickens are excited to see Nathan coming with his bowl of scratch.

Mrs. Ty, the "Pacas" are so soft!!

Each day we added more and more beads until we are at the top.

 Today our friend Sophie came to help with our project:)

Loop the top with wire snips and attach  fishing line for hanging and spinning.

These eye catching beads will be the talk of the neighborhood;)

Mrs. Ty...now that we're done with our front porch pretty, 

you can push me on the swing!!!
