Painting an old picnic table

There's a partly rotted board in the middle that needs replacing,  but that didn't stop us from bringing new life to an old picnic table in our yard.

Outdoor Painting Space

 I want to create an art space for the kids with the intent of having a messy art area they can mess up and to have the freedom to paint at as much as they want when they want. This is an area we set up for outdoor watercolor painting yesterday as a first step towards that goal  This is made from cinder blocks and a work bench table top we didn't need. It's particle board, so it's not weather proof. I want something more permanent and weather proof but for now this is fun and a creative space in nature that the kids can paint in. 

Everett tries to hang his picture, following in the footsteps of the other kids.
We hung  twine and clothes-line pins to display and dry art work.
