This is a simple craft idea that I came up with while playing with Play-doh with Benjamin. I made the letters for the title of my blog out of different colors of play-doh and then decided to spell out Benjamin and Lyla.
What I used:
Imaginarium Wooden Xylophone
or... Schylling Xylophone - Wooden
or any colorful toy or background
White Play-doh
Canon Rebel EOS
I made the letters very simple and childlike
You can take pictures from different angles...
You can zoom in on just a few letters...
I am planning on printing these next two pictures and framing them with a simple white wooden frame and hanging them in our play area.
You can also take pictures of words like BABY, PLAY, LAUGH, HAPPY...
Here I chose to do more of a cursive font.
I set the xylophone right by the window so that there was a lot of natural light and turned the camera flash off.
That is so beautiful! I love the simple creativity of it.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the personalized feel of this project.
ReplyDeleteOf course with a company name like: Rainbows Within Reach, it goes without saying that I appreciate the 'rainbow' in all possible forms.
Clever! Thanks, too for the photography tips.
Well done! (Popped in from WeTeach)
