Making a Masterpiece...

So my grandfather (who died almost a year ago) made this easel for my sister and I when we were little.  Yes, he made it.  Now, after many years of sitting in my parent's garage, it is being put to good use again!  I think it's a fabulous addition to our school room, and the kids think so too :)




I got this idea from Parent's Magazine.  I got some cheap 4oz baby bottles, filled them with paint, cut off the top of the nipple and put it in the bottle upside down and put the ring on.  Tada!  Re-sealable paint holders that take excess paint off of paintbrushes too!!  
Worked fabulously!
