Looking for something to keep the kids busy this summer and end the “I’m bored”.
I was recently introduced to the Orange Art Boxwhich is an Art Subscription Box for Kids.
As you might know…I love doing crafts with my grandsons
and because the box is geared for kids ages 5-12, it was right up our alley.

I was so impressed with the concept that I’ve agreed to do a monthly post with the boys for the
next few months using the products we receive in each month’s kit.
With Summer Vacation around the corner it’s a perfect activity to keep the boys busy.

A collection of projects every month to inspire your artist.
Every Orange Art Box is designed with a feature project and multiple smaller projects
for hours of fun!
The boys and I did a short video of them opening their Orange Art Boxes.
It was seriously like opening a Christmas Gift.
You may notice in the video that they were just a little bit excited.
The theme for April was Mosaics…the April Orange Art Box included a wooden box, a large bag of mosaics, mod podge, brush, book mark, door knob hanger, tissue paper squares, 6 color scented pen and a folder of ideas, tips, patterns and instructions.
Enough projects to keep them busy for quite a while.
The boys all time favorite item was the six color “smelly” pen.
The first thing they wanted to do was work on their boxes.
It’s fun to see their creative minds at work.
I really think this will be a fun summer activity for the boys.

I stamped a birthday celebration scene using the three boys to represent my three grandsons on white watercolor paper.
I colored the stamped image in using my art markers.
There are so many cute kids and components with this stamp set.
I used a silver paint marker to edge around the stamped image to make it stand out more.
The card and layers were quickly put together using my xyron tape runner.
Wrap a couple strands of green and blue twine around the card front and tie with a bow.
A simple little card perfect for celebrating all your special days.

My sweet little grandson will be celebrating his first Halloween soon…
Inspired by our newest game, I decided to make him a cute little shirt to wear.
With the help of Iron-on Embroidered letters from Joy making the shirt was super easy.
prewash cotton t-shirt
set iron to cotton setting
position letters with shiny side down on garment
cover letters with a fine cloth
with firm pressure iron cloth over the letters for 25 seconds
turn shirt inside out and iron the back of the letters for 25 seconds
allow to cool for 1 minute before cooling
Isn’t he adorable?
Looking at this picture, I’m thinking really big googly eyes would look cute inside the “O’s”.

First, I just squirted dye directly onto the socks. (red and blue pair)
Next, I rubber banded two socks together. (yellowish pair)
Then, I tried rubber banding the socks separately. (purplish pair)
I think I like the socks rubber banded together best. (yellowish pair)
To Dye the Socks…
Add water to the pre-measured squirt bottles.
Rubber-band socks and apply dye.
Let set for 6-8 hours, then rinse – waiting is the hardest part!
Make sure to wear gloves! (I didn’t)
Wash and Dry socks.
6. Iron On Emoji patches on opposite sides of the socks. Very COOL Socks!
The Tie-Dyed Emoji Socks were created for and sponsored by Joy.
