Crafty chameleons

We're having a pretty lazy weekend so far. Yesterday we enjoyed our first exam, assignment and work-free Saturday in months. We spent it avoiding doing anything even remotely productive - mainly webjunking, cooking and relaxing at the thermal baths in Nyírbátor. We arrived home just after 5pm and it was pitch black outside. Here is a picture I took of the church from our backyard.

Last night was also pretty relaxing. We cracked open some wine from the Hungarian town of Villány and set about trying out a craft project I'd seen online - paper chameleons. Can you believe that each of these little guys was made with only a single sheet of A4 paper? I think they look awesome.


Only a week until Dave arrives. Hopefully there'll be some snow to greet him when he gets here.

    As for the heads, we stole a SmART Class idea and amended the bunny heads found at http://elementaryartfun.blogspot.com/search/label/bunny%20puppets
