I hope it works

Any motivation to get the little monsters to help around the house is fine by me.
My neighbor found this cute craft on a blog and wanted to try it. She wasn't very comfortable using tools, so I volunteered to do the prep work. There were 8 kits to make.

Addison and Bailey thought that playing the the sawdust was tons of fun. I have to admit, I like working with wood and playing the the sawdust too! There is something about the smell of pine when you cut it. I think it just reminds me of home.
My family had a wood kit business while I was growing up. I got to spend hours cutting and drilling. I didn't love it at the time, but I miss it.

This is one of my friends. You can do so many different things with the same project. I thought they all turned out very cute!
Now my kids are all ready to work their guts out...RIGHT!?!?!?

That is sooo cute. I love it. Even if the chores don't get done, you'll have a super cute craft sitting there :)

Angie, if you don't quit calling your kids "monsters", I am going to quit reading your blog.

Now then, that said, those are so cute! I need to make something like that for us. Our sticker charts just aren't cutting it. And you are a good little wood worker, yes you are. Cuteness.

We are excited to see you guys soon. Gordon and Mason ask at least once a day how many days are left until all of their cousins are coming. Fun.
