There's a starman, waiting in the sky...
Bowie, you well and truely did blow our minds.
I couldn't post today without giving tribute to another star in the sky. When I think of my childhood, I can't count how many hours I've spent listening to his music, and The Labaryth is up there as one of my most watched films. Even now I often find myself jumping around with the Zebra singing "Dance magic dance". He is a genuine legend.
Today we decided to have a Star theme, and wanted to make something bright and happy. We tried a craft similar to this at Halloween, but with paint, and it was an epic fail, so this time we tried it with glitter.
Holding a paper star against the card, I covered everything in pva glue. When the star was lifted, it left a perfect, clean shape in the centre.
Time to get the shake-shake out and let the Zebra loose with the glitter!
Once she got bored, I made sure the whole paper was covered in different coloured glitter.
Shake off the excess, and you are left with a shining star!
The zebra also enjoyed some time playing with the glue and glitter to make some sparkly footprints and played with the sticky star I used as a stencil.
It's such a great loss to his family and to his fans. I am loving the 'star' theme.
ReplyDeleteI love kid's crafts! This is adorable.
ReplyDeleteI love this.I am always looking for crafts for the grandkids. http://mimiandpapasmissions.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteIt's awesome that you are so willing to let your little one get messy with the crafts! I'm such a neat freak and we always do craft projects outside so there is less clean up, haha. Luckily I live in Cali and there are very few days where the weather doesn't cooperate.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing. I remember these days of crafts with my little ones, when they were little.
ReplyDeleteDavid Bowie was and still is a true icon. I really respected the love him and Iman share. Sad he's gone, but also glad I was able to witness a portion of his gift. Great post.
Bowie is such an iconic figure of my childhood. I was always transfixed by his flamboyancy and talent. *sigh* what a hard loss.
