Preschool Craft: Tablescape Faux Vase

Preschool Craft: Tablescape Faux Vase

11/1/2015

It's officially November which means that Thanksgiving is just around the corner! YAY!! It shouldn't be any secret that Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. It has all the awesome, fun and easy-to-make-crafts-for holidays all rolled into just a few short months.

I was looking through Pinterest today for some new cute craft ideas for our students at the Little Builders Preschool, a ministry of YWAM San Diego/Baja, in Mexico to make to help decorate our tables and walls for the upcoming Thanksgiving Feast. I came across this awesome tablescape with a sweater covered glass vase.

Well being that I was in preschool craft mode I instead saw a cardboard tube vase covered in sweater. I immediately thought how cute would it be to make some "vases" out of the 100s (ok 1000s) of cardboard tubes we have lying around. And what if we wrapped said "vases" in twine or string. Not only would these look cute (hopefully) but would also act as a GREAT addition to our sensorial stations.

The Inspiration for our Cardboard Tube Vases for a beautiful Thanksgiving Tablescape.

This was the inspiration for our cardboard tube vase. Thanks, Two Purple Couches for the inspiration.

We haven't made these yet but I'm hoping to get started on this idea this week. Once we have completed them, I will write a new post with step-by-step instructions including pictures of the finished products. I will add a link to this post so you can see the results of my crazy preschool art crafting mind.

I am on an amazing adventure traveling the world with Jesus. After 7 years of teaching preschool in Alabama, God called me to the mission field in Mexico full time. I led short-term missions trips for 6 years and the Lord opened the door for me to mix both of my passions, missions and teaching. I am now the director of Little Builders Preschool and we will soon be opening a full International K-12 school. The current students are missionary kids but will be open to the local community in the future.

Join me on my adventure and learn what I learn.

As a full-time missionary, I do not receive a traditional pay check. I rely on the generous support of friends, family & people like you. As any teacher does, much of what we use in our school is purchased by me out of my own personal funds. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our ministry and help our students reach their potential in education.
