Yarn Couch
11 June 2009
Ok, this was totally not my idea, but I think V might be getting into yarnbombing.
I was talking on the phone to my friend Kim and when I hung up, V was halfway through a ball of yarn she sneaked out of a drawer.
I figured what the heck and let her run with it.
She called her masterpiece "Yarn Couch."
Kitten dug it too.
When she was through, she was tired & happy - my own little artist in residence.
I'm planning to leave it up for a day or two, just because.

-laffin' out loud! She is very ambitious - that's a lot of work for a 3yo! You should leave it up, just because. :)

Seems about right...

that is awesome! and a very familiar scene!
although never *around* the couch, lily and pippin are always stringing yarn all over my house as well, so much so that they have their own collection of yarn so that hey won't use my good stuff anymore.
ps - i think we have the same couch.

That's too cute. I especially love the feet in the air and the kitten photo!

I love that you're leaving it up for a day or two! I think it's so important that we show kids that we are proud of, and appreciate, their creativity!

sometimes you just gotta let the little ones have fun-even if it's a mess. Don't want to squash their creativity. Have fun winding it back up!

V. and the kitten are a good team.

She could totally display that at many of the modern art galleries in NYC!

I'm not sure which is better: that she feels so open and free to create in that way or that you actually appreciate it and are going to leave it up a few days. Boy, this is some fanastic in my books!

You've got a budding artist in your house. I'm glad you left it up for a while.
