Our flowers are blooming in our front yard and it is so beautiful. I love Spring flowers don’t you? Right when they start to grow, and then bud, I cannot help but smile. Physically seeing that growth of our front yard flowers equates to warmer weather, spending time outside in the sun with my family, and more DIY outdoor projects.
One DIY activity that both I and my daughter love is watercolor painting. We love to bring our watercolor paints outside and enjoy the sunshine – painting flowers and also painting at our local beaches. We both have our own watercolor pad to keep our paintings in and we could paint together for hours.
Do you and your kids love watercolor painting?

My daughter and I both love looking at watercolor ideas on Pinterest too. {Pinterest is such a great site, isn’t it?} We found two watercolor flower ideas that we thought would be great to recreate:
You can also see what we’ve pinned if you’d like on our Watercolor Ideas board on Pinterest. Maybe you’ll find a watercolor idea that you’d love to paint too.
Don’t forget you can get great watercolor supplies at Oriental Trading. (I just love Oriental Trading!)

I really like this idea! Who doesn’t like painting flowers?! Especially with water colors. Thanks for the inspiration. 🙂
Lovely pictures. Like the grape hyacinths especially.
That looks awesome! I’m going to have to try painting these with my kiddos!
Beautiful painting…and flowers!! Our oak trees haven’t sprouted yet, so I’m still delaying planting mine. 🙁
Love this!
