Back to School

Well its Monday and as promised another post, I have had major Internet issues so missed last week but given I posted twice the week before I think that makes me even.

Well as I said its Monday and the summer holidays are over and we are back to school.  I never thought I would be in my 30's oh ok 40's and still saying "I don"t want to go to school" but the necessary evil of money dictates that one must work.  I know once I get there and have had my first 50 hugs I will forget I didn't want to be there and enjoy being with the kids again.  Nick and Abbey went off at 10 past 8 for their first day of the year both with new school bags on their backs full of the years stationery.  Oh and because it is the first day of school ...of course....it's raining!!!

So today I have a little something I have been playing with, dominos, just for something different.  These little wooden pieces are lots of fun and you can do lots with them.  Also seen all the tiles that are popular at the moment well I have made my own from scrabble pieces. I still need to perfect my technique but they are fun and easy and cheaper.  Dominos I had some here and found some at the $2 store.


This is a mini album with a Domino fromt and back and an accordian fold album inbetween.
 Cute huh! and only measures 1 1/4 x2 1/2 inches


This is it opened up.


These are smaller dominos I turned into tiles, fun I can assure you but I think the scrabble tiles are cuter.
 These would make nice necklaces, but I need to work on my drilling as my holes leave a little bit to be desired.
Well must go as the bell will be ringing soon.  Till next Monday.

Bye
Karen
