In class we have been talking about having a growth mindset, that is thinking in a positive way instead of a negative way. I did the same with the “C” in my daughter’s name.įor my Messy Canvas, I decided I wanted to create something special for my classroom. I sized it to be about one inch shorter than the length of the canvas. My son found a “J” that was boxy that he liked. You could also simple find a font and make your own. I went onto Cricut Design Space and searched for a “J” in the designs. If you plan ahead and can make everyone’s initial ahead of time, this next part is a breeze. They need to dry for as long as possible, so after they are painted would be a good time to do another birthday activity. I thought they all turned out really nice. My daughter loves bright, neon, colors so she took a foam triangle and covered her entire canvas with bright colors. My son wanted to go for a camouflaged look so he painted his canvas and smeared it around to look like a camo print. I took a foam circle brush and dipped it into some bright colors for my canvas.

You will need to think ahead because there will need to be multiple drying stages. This project is very simple and easy to do, the key is to prepare ahead of time. No matter how many people you have at the party, everyone will be happy with the way these turn out.įor this tutorial, the kids made their initials and I made a sign for my classroom.
