Love the balloon! |
Crystal helped me out on this one. (I will post her board also - I haven't taken a photo of it yet.) This was made with plastic table cloths from the dollar store. We started by making the hot air balloon. I suggested tracing the shape on a piece of cardboard and wrapping the table cloth. This was learned from last year's flowers. Wrapping when already on the board is tricky! So, using hot glue and two sided tape she wrapped the colours. We learned right away if the top and bottom were left open air could get in and it would stay puffier. It's simply stuffed with the excess table cloth of the same colour. I have to admit, I had difficulty sleeping last night as I have fears of the stuffing falling down due to gravity, or the whole darn thing coming off the wall (held up with a combo of pushpins and hot glue). I'm not going to school today, so it is still a nervous thought in the back of my mind.

Bye bye plain wall! |
Crystal: We should make a 3D paper tree and combine owl, banner and tree.
Me: A paper tree would really anchor it.
Me: Do we have time?
Me: We are insane.
Crystal: There's always time for paper trees!
And that's how the paper tree came to be. Insanity, people.
3: Pencil wreath: These have been floating around Pinterest. We had to make them. I love mine. I'm not sure what else to say.

So proud of this! |
5: My math stations folders: I'm planning a future post on math stations. This picture doesn't really make it appear handmade - but in those folders are lots of TpT math stations (my own and others). They really were a labour of love. Printing, cutting, laminating, cutting again, organizing..... Now that they are all in folders and labeled, I am thrilled. More on this in the future.
