Fun and Messy Pastels

We tried pastels this week for some great, messy, artistic fun. I found 30 pastels tutorials at Hodgepodge. The instructions were easy to follow and I think the results were stunning! The tree reflections tutorial is number 15 in that link if you'd like to try it.


Little Man, hard at work and sporting a green cheek and multi-colored sleeve.


To LM's way of thinking, if it's a picture of trees, then it should have as many trees as he can fit on the page.


Z-Man wasn't quite as into the mess, but we had baby wipes on hand for clean-up.


I think they both did a great job.


And I gave it a shot too.

We'll definitely have to try some more of these great tutorials!

  2. Beautiful pastel trees! So glad you've discovered the joy in them as well. Messy but easy to keep the baby wipes close by! Thanks for sharing. I love to see families enjoying Nana's tutorials. ~Tricia
