A good idea...

The other day the boys wanted to paint. I don't let them paint very often. I know, I know...I'm suppressing their creative skills, right? I'm going to get better about it and here is why--I was thinking they were going to make a huge mess but NO they didn't with this little tip.

I went looking for an old twin flat sheet to cover up the table with and I accidently grabbed a twin fitted sheet. I almost put it back up to get the flat sheet but then I realized the fitted sheet would perfectly cover the table. Here are some pictures...

Not only did it perfectly cover the table but it stayed put. No slipping off! So, yes, we got some paint on the sheet but it is okay because now it is our painting tablecloth!

I'm glad you found a clean way to paint! :) Jen B did this at her house when we painted picture frames there for PEP. It does fit perfectly! :) Hayden and Parker look like they are having so much fun! :)
