Slingshot!

Years ago I watched this video and discovered the SlingshotPlanner!  We’re big fans of trying to keep organized, so we were pretty excited to find this little gem thanks to our favorite, ThreadBanger. We had high hopes of submitting some art that year, but things happened, which didn’t allow the art to happen.  BUT… we held on to the dream of one day making it into the planner and this was the year it happened!!!  We were given September for the month-at-a-glance and a four-week section in August and September.  This planner is packed full of original art submissions and radical historical dates throughout, so you can learn some interesting facts each day.  Big thanks to Slingshot for lettings us be a part of this year’s planner and for sending a few copies our way.

Fall 2013 Craft Swap

Finished up another awesome swap.   We made the fall framed picture and were inspired by a similar one we saw at a décor shop.  We had one of those “I could make that” moments and this time we actually made it!!!  The awesome scarecrow candy display and the felt photos were mailed to us.  The scarecrow has been on display since we got it and the photos (which were a special request) will be used for some fall speech vocabulary activities.  I hope the students love them as much as I do!
