CAFE PRESS

Hi Coastal Families! About a week ago we had asked the children to do some "Free Art". The children could paint anything they wanted as long as they use lots of colors. We then took it to Cafe press to have some Keepsake(s) made!Your child's work can be printed on shirts, mugs, totes, etc. I know it's last minute but I know you'll love them. Please bear with us. This is a trial run for us as well. Hope you like them...THANK YOU!
