Dotted Gold Pumpkin

by Yvonne @ Sunnyside Up-Stairs

To celebrate fall, I spray painted a pumpkin gold, and my 3 year old dotted it with white paint. :)

  @April - Thank you! She's a little artist in her 3 year old way, although there were a few oops that a quick wipe with a paper towel cured. =D

  @Yvonne @ Sunnyside Up-Stairs - You're welcome! Aww, that's so cute LOL! I can just imagine that. :D I'm impressed with how she grasped to space the dots in such a way. What a smart little girl. :)

  @April - Thank you, again! =D She paints while I paint something around the house, so I suppose she watches and adds her own touch. When I painted our rug, she made our first piece of art (on old subfloor, hah). Ooh, here's some pictures: http://sunnysideup-stairs.blogspot.com/2013/03/project-3-year-old-art.html

  @Yvonne @ Sunnyside Up-Stairs - You're very welcome! :D That's so sweet that she watches and mimics her Mom. She is very talented and I just adore your story on your blog about her recent painting project. Way too cute! I hope you were able to remove the paint from the floor. :D

  @April - Thank you, April. It's a vinyl floor, so the paint came off easily with some rubbing alcohol, or peeled off if it dried thick. :)

  @Yvonne @ Sunnyside Up-Stairs - You're welcome! :) Oh good. However, I think her dancing technique brought about a colorful painting - too cute. :)
