Some of the best gifts are handmade!
My dad is so good at bringing some of my visions to life. There has been several times now that I’ve shown him a few pictures of things I liked and he just drew up plans so we could build it ourselves.
So when he asked what E might like for her birthday this year, I asked if he was up for another project : ) I really thought she would enjoy an outdoor easel.
Oh my goodness! It turned out better than I imagined! the easel is made of plexiglass so it is double sided. My dad also created a ledge to hold the paint. It’s so sturdy and well made!
We also ordered a little pump sprayer and squeegee so she can easily clean the paint off.
The pump sprayer is already a hit 😆 while I stained the easel, E spent a good 30 minutes spraying random things in the yard with water. This one turned out to be the perfect size (https://amzn.to/3KnXlNG)
If you’re looking for more ways to entertain your little ones outdoors, an easel is perfect for just that! It gives kids a simple space to paint, create on, and get messy. Then just hose it off!
They can be pretty expensive to buy but there are so many ways to build your own! You can really customize it to fit your budget.
There is just something special about an easel outside! Kids tend gravitate towards it.
