Girlie Girl loves anything having to do with arts & crafts. In fact, she says she wants to become an artist when she grows up. That’s why I knew that she would love ColorMe Company.

MY REVIEW
When I first stopped by ColorMe Company, I was pleasantly surprised to see that not only do they have cards but also offer other items like pillow cases, t-shirts, and seasonal items. We were fortunate to receive two pillow cases to try out for ourselves.
Girlie Girl had the Beach Girl Pillow Case (of course) and Baby Bug received the Flying High Mini-Pillow Case. They both had a lot of fun personalizing them and I enjoyed the fact that this was a very creative project.
The kit came with the pillow case, markers, crayons, matching postcard, and instructions on how to use everything. Basically, you just have your child color the picture making sure you have something in the pillowcase so the colors don’t go through to the other side. Once they’re done, just put the pillow case in the dryer for 30 minutes. That’s it! We’ve washed and dryed the pillow cases a few times since and so far the colors have stayed on really well!
This was a great project for Girlie Girl’s creative side since the other side of the pillowcase was blank which allowed her to draw her own picture. She loves that she can now display her work of art for everyone to see. Baby Bug, on the other hand, just loved being able to do whatever her big sister was doing.
This would be such a great activity for your child’s next birthday party or sleep-over. Not only will they be doing something creative but they’ll also get to take home their project! How cool is that?

That is really nifty! Thanks so much for sharing
I’m going to check it out. Looks like a great gift to give a grandkid.
That looks like a really fun idea. I can see this making an appearance @ my daughter’s upcoming b-day party.
Oh that is so cool – Big Brother would LOVE this. I may have to look into this for an Easter basket gift (birthday not until October). Thanks!!
I love the idea of a take-home project, but these would be perfect to keep on hand as birthday gifts, too!
