Not a Stick

My oldest granddaughter is in kindergarten. Every year her charter school hosts a fundraiser auction with art projects from each class. This year everyone was asked to base the project on a children's book. My sweet daughter-in-law volunteered to head-up the projects for the kindergarten classes.  For one class she choose the book, Not a Stick.

She had each of the children paint a paint stir-stick and then she brought me the colorful sticks.

I glued the sticks on a large piece of MDF, 

then added legs and some trim. The sticks became a beautiful table 

that can be used as an end table 

or a spot for children to sit. 

It was a fun project for both me and the children---and 

it sold for a great price too!
