Art – Everyday Sisters

Non-nut Pesto

I’m a person with some odd food allergies. Pine nuts are one of them. At first when I realized that pesto was off the menu, it didn’t bother me that much. It’s not something I’ve eaten often. But then, when my kid wanted to try Fitz’s favorite sandwich made by Simmons (from Marvel’s Agents ofContinue reading “Non-nut Pesto”

Clothespin magnets

In our school district, starting middle school (6th grade) is kind of a right of passage.

Some chalk up creativity as the soulContinue reading “Mosaic in Wood”

Temperature Projects

Temperature Blankets/Scarves/Wraps/ETC are back in vogue right now. If you don’t know what they are, here’s a quick description. A record of the temperature throughout a set time period (usually a year, but sometimes a pregnancy or another memorable time block) using predetermined temperature ranges based on location with associated colors to create a uniqueContinue reading “Temperature Projects”
