Kids Creation Station

Ever wake up thinking about a project?

This morning at 5am I was coming up with dimensions for a place to put craft supplies for the the kiddos.

I had a a board that I could use for the back of the project. 

I bought one 2'X4' sheet for the rest of it, so the total for me was around $9.

I cut one 8'' board, a 6'' board, two 3'' boards and a 2'' board.

The 8'' and the 3'' strips were for the top section.

I wanted to build 3 cubby type things to hold paper and coloring books.

The 8'' board was for the front of the cubbies and the 3'' boards became the bottom and sides.

 I cut one of the 3'' boards down into four pieces each measuring 12''.

I put them next to the 8'' board to figure out the angle of the cuts I would need to make.

I put a 6'' shelf on the bottom to hold buckets of crayons, markers and such 

supported by the 2'' board underneath for support.

After I nailed it all together, I painted it with chalkboard paint.

The kiddos are DELIGHTED! They've been crafting all afternoon!
