Crayon Wreath

This is a crayon wreath made with an 18 inch straw form.  Crayons are always on sale in late August at Walmart.  This was a great time to make a wreath!  I use a low temperature hot glue gun to attach the crayons to the form and then added a raffia bow. 

Apple Prints

The red, green and yellow apples are apple prints using real apples.  Hint---the apples make better stamps if you let them dry overnight after cutting them.

Fall Leaf Patterns

Leaf patterns are fun to make to using foam leaf cutouts.  I also use the dye cut machine to make fall leaf patterns.       

Chicka Boom Alphabet Letters

Chicka Boom Alphabet Letter bulletin board.  This is a great project to fill an area that is difficult to reach in the room.  I put these up in September and leave them up for the year!  For more complete directions look in September Art Projects.

Patriot's Day

September 11 is Patriot's Day!  I stamp each child's handprint using red, white and blue paint with a silver glitter for the stars.  We use a poem and each child's picture holding the flag.  This project is also included in the September Ideas link that is available for purchase
