    Supplies:

    • unfinished wood box
    • screwdriver (if your box has hardware that needs to be removed to paint)
    • acrylic paint
    • foam brush
    • craft glue
    • decorations, optional
    • felt

    Step 1. Remove any latches or hardware with the screwdriver. (They asked me to leave the hinges on so that they could paint them).

    Step 2. Paint the inside and outside of the box and let it dry completely.

    Step 5. Cut dowels to the width of the box, or use pencils or crayons.

    Step 6. Cut felt pieces to match the width of the box. The length is up to you, but ours were 3-4" long.

    Step 7. Wrap the dowels with felt, tightly, and place in the box. Pack them in until they can't move.

      The kids look like they're having an absolute ball Brandy. You're such a really cool Mom. I don't think there's anything more special than letting kids explore their creativity without having to stress about messing
