Summer Birthday Bash! Artskills Review & Giveaway





My kids love making original artwork. No matter what the season, creating something is always a wondrful way to pass the time.  At Artskills you will find a wide selection of art and poster supplies that will really help get your children's imagination flowing. Their items are perfect for school projects but can also find uses in everyday fun whether its creating a fancy greetings or even scrapbooking.




Our art supplies arrived right in time for Father's Day. We received borders, letters, numbers and decorations. Instead of buying cards this year, I had my kids make posters for their dad, stepdad and grandpa. A personalized gift means so much more than  store bought cards. The supplies are simple to use. Most of them are already sticky and just need to be put in place wherever you want them.  So even your youngest kids can use them with ease. They are fun and colorful and there are probably millions of ideas you can come up with. You can see from the pictures just how wonderful they turn out. And there are so many pieces in each package that we still have tons left for our next project. 




I know I will be visiting Artskills again once the new school year begins. Their website has lots of great tips for parents to help them with school projects. They also have contests for both teachers and students to win supplies.  You can even have your children enter their original designs in their Poster of the Month Contest.



How would you like to try your hand at poster making?  One lucky winner is going to receive an assortment of products valued at over $50!  To enter, please visit Artskills and leave a comment telling me  your favorite decoration.
