Randomness
I am a Receptionist at a Preschool and here is a pencil bouqet I made for my boss for the first day of school. I got the idea from a blog but I cannot find it anywhere now to post a link and give them credit. Also, disregard the background of all these pictures I am going to try and take better ones from now on:)
Crows I made for the bulletin board in the Fall of 2010....
A Turkey Centerpiece made from popsicle sticks I stained with wood stain and glued to a tin can and took some petals off some flowers to make the turkeys and glued faces to the flower centers and used some jute for a bow. I got the idea here http://www.whattoexpect.com/blogs/astudentatmamauniversity/thanksgiving-crafts-for-children-flower-turkey-centerpieces

Memory Wire Bracelets
I am a self taught novice beader. One of the first projects I ever made was memory wire bracelets.
Memory wire is a coil of wire resembling a 'slinky' and retains its curved shape, all you have to do is thread on the beads and secure the ends by making a curved loop and tada you have a cute bracelet!
