Just How Washable is a Washable Crayon?

We're going to find out.  Soon.  Because I walked into my kitchen and found this today.

Boo is my artist.  She also hit the fridge and the kitchen wall with that purple crayon.  I think Bug half expected me to totally blow my top but, well, they're washable.  So...eh.  I told them to have at it and we could clean it up when they were done.

(To her credit, Boo isn't even two yet and the first thing she did when I commented on her having written on the cabinet was go grab a sponge and try to wipe it off.  Sweet girl.)

The finished project, after the introduction of new colors and giddiness that Mom was letting them draw on the cabinetry.

Bug says that's the cats fighting (which, thankfully, they don't really do) on the right-most door.

A Win!

Well, this was a nice surprise - I won one of the giveaways that was part of Sew, Mama, Sew's Giveaway Day!

I got an email from Heather of quilt.cook.keep. telling me that I was one of the subway art winners.  So cool!

It was difficult to choose a color.  The aqua is just super pretty, I adore the orange and it matches the paint in my kitchen, and it's just hard to go wrong with black.  But, in the end, I chose the aqua.  Since I'm sewing in the dining room - which is yellow and bleeds into the kitchen, which is orange - I was afraid that an orange print would look awkward on the wall.  I ended up choosing aqua.  I think it'll be nice and spring-y in there. :)

Pretty, no?

(Psst!  If you'd like one of your own, Heather sells them in her Etsy shop.)
