This blog could also be titled "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" or "I Love Glitter". Around the holidays, we have Santa's Workshop set up in our dramatic play center. Last Christmas, Santa's sleigh had an accident not covered by sleigh insurance and irreparable. I had to look for a new sleigh. A preschool parent had a television box...did I want it? Of course! So how did I transform a box into a sleigh? Spray paint and lots and lots and lots of glitter!

Next I made a paper pattern and cut one side.
I used the cardboard cut out for a pattern on the opposite side.
Starting to look like a Santa's sleigh!
Spray painted red. Let the paint dry and then apply glue (I used seven bottles) and glitter.
Not enough glitter. I needed to add some green glitter, too.
