Hand fun!

Summer is rolling around and for many of you it is very much in the air with its lovely warm weather (Idaho is still trying to decide if wants to be warm :) ! Along with summer, you might be having children more at home than before because they are officially out of school now (or you could be lucky like me and get the kiddos home all the time still). With all this extra time with them, what are you going to do with them this lovely summer!? Well I was browsing around and found these lovely works of art, I know they are supper fancy (but practice makes perfect, right?)- but hey, maybe doing something like this could be something fun to do as a family if you have totally exhausted your ideas (i mean totally exhausted your ideas)- or they could just be fun to look at too. Anyway, hope you enjoy these lovely fun finds for this fine Friday, oh and by the way, I found these pictures HERE.

 Meow! I love the eyes on this, so real looking!

 I love how if you stare long enough it is easy to forget this isn't a real puppy!

 "Fly like an eagle..."

 Such a friendly looking giraffe- I still can't totally wrap my head around this one and how they worked this one out

 Can, can you do the toucan?

 Maybe this would be a way to show your patriotism for a fourth of July activity?

 So elegant...

 Crocks! Watch out, its a live one!

 Is it just me or is the eye a little too real looking?

 So much detail, so much patience!

And last but not least another lovely elephant, I love how they incorporated the wrinkles of the hand- simply amazing!

Now do you want a shot at trying to paint one? Let me know if you do and how it turns out, that is if your hand doesn't get tired before finishing :)

And on other fun hand notes- check out this fun hand puppet show- maybe this could be some fun you can have with the little kiddos too, or could even be a fun date night, you chose!

Anyway, hope you have a lovely Friday evening and see you all next week on Monday!

Until next time!...
