My nieces 8 asked if I would come and help out with her girl scout troop sometime. Of course I'm the Aunt that never says no even though I have 18 Neices and Nephews. So I said sure. Well she came up with the idea of doing paint buckets. We both came up with the idea for decorating them as Valentine mail boxes.
It was a great time. She has seven usually wild girls in her troop but they had a blast doing this project and worked on it for 1 hour!!! I pre cut all kids of Valentine paper so it was easy for them to glue on. Then I bought a ton of ribbon at Mike's when it was 50% off. I brought my sizzix and let them cut out there names etc.. (this was a big hit). I had heart dollies and fun foam hearts to decorate as well. They all were so cute and different and a very easy project.
I know there are many scout leaders out there so keep this in mind!
