I imagine Henry Ford made many car creations or models in his day, even as a child. Maybe especially as a child. That would have been a brilliant way to work out ideas, trouble shoot challenges and just have all around fun with his visions.
Creating the idea(s) Jack had, making them into a 3D auto gave super support to his cleverness and likely made him feel a bit accomplished at the ripe old age of 9.
Forging ideas with everyday stuff sounds like great fun to me.

When Joey came to the studio he saw a T.P. roll bat on our wall tree that really sparked his interest and he wanted to make his own. He took his time, he cut the wings out, painted the body and had fun adding special details to make a super cool bat. Then he was inspired to add one final element that really gave his bat a place to call home when he got an idea to make a creepy fence for his bat.
Little touches can make a big impact. Nicely Done.

If Jim Henson could see this character made by a 12 year old boy, he would be so proud.
Brett’s imagination wheels started turning when after a studio such for something special he found a fleece hat with eyes! Jack pot! The rest unfolded with a lot of hot glue, a big milk jug and lots and lots of fabric!
The fake beard was a whole nother story…

Macy was the first to finnish her button tree at this month’s Pinspired Kids crafternoon. She knew just how she wanted it to look. She painted her trunk and branches to hold her favorite fall collection of buttons. I wish I had her button tree to sit under on a sunny afternoon.
