Sam's Big Brother Gift

Sam received quite a few gifts from people as "the big brother" when Rachel was born. One of the gifts he received from Auntie Sheri, Naden and Tevan was wooden letters to paint. Over the past few days we have had time to get these letters painted and I think they turned out really well. Below is the process in pictures:

The letters before they were painted.

I painted them white to give Sam some background to work with.

Sam picked the colours he wanted for each letter.
Here he is starting on the "S".

Then he decided to do the "M."

More paint needed on the "M."

Sam enjoyed the freedom of holding the green paint
in the container while he worked on the "A."

The finished product without the newspaper
in the background. We are going to hang this above his crib.

We had so much fun doing this project! Thank you so much Auntie Sheri, Naden and Tevan!!!
