Viral Mom’s Creative Parenting: The Forgotten Sock Art

It all started so simple. Xep Campbell, a Washington State Mom, found one of her daughter’s socks on the bathroom floor. It was dirty and had been there for a few days when Xep found it.

In a burst of creativity, Xep turned her annoyance into a unique art display with a small note mounted on the wall in front of the sock stating that it was a unique piece of art on display for a limited time by the artist.

The display note read: “The Forgotten Sock, Mixed Media, Nov 25, 2020. On loan from the collection of the artist.”

The following day, her daughter sent her a picture of the sock with the “plaque” detailing that it was on loan temporarily and asked her mother if she had put the sign there. Owning up to what she had done, her mother went about the day without much thought regarding the sock situation.

Upon arriving home, the sock now had a platform upon which it resided.

The scene becomes funnier when her daughter, Kestrel, adds some barnyard animal toys, observing the “artwork.” You can read the story on Facebook here.
