When I started this page, I glued a leftover copy of a vintage photo into my art journal without a clue where I was going with it. No plan meant no expectations. After all, I had no idea what direction that very serious woman in the photo was headed. In the end, she was able to release her […]
I am so excited to be linking up with A Cupcake for the Teacher for the Summer Bucket List linky!! What is on my summer to-do list?? Well, there is a ton! 1. Read this... Actually, I want to do a book study on it. Anyone interested?? I know it was done last summer, but I did Daily 5 and Cafe last summer. So leave a comment if you would like to study with me :) 2. Math journals... I love the idea of cutting the journals in half! You need to check out Renee's blog too because she gives the super cute labels to you for free!! 3. I have a TONS of lamination to cut out! 4. Get ALL the decorations ready for my room... 5. Unpack my classroom... I have an AWESOME classroom this year! It is huge and was just painted! So excited. And yes, that is my son climbing all over everything :) 6. Make student job applications... Every student in my classroom is required to do a job and they apply for the jobs they would like. Holly, from Fourth Grade Flipper, did an awesome post about this. You can find it here. I need to redo my applications that I used five years ago and get everything set up and ready to go for the first day of school. 7. Writing station... I need to redo my writing station for my Daily 5 this summer. I have 10 binders (one for each month) and am creating 5 weeks worth of writing station activities for each month. HUGE PROJECT! I am also going to have a writing folder for each student like the cute picture above from Teach Junkie. 8. Math stations... I just need to sit down and start surfing the web on this one. I have ideas floating around but nothing concrete. Any ideas or posts you could share?? 9. This is the most important one of all! HAVE FUN WITH MY KIDS!! We have been out of school since Thursday and already had sleepovers with cousins, went fourwheeling, driven by the swimming pool 4 times and yearned for it to be warmer, and we are heading to the cabin tomorrow! We have camping on the list, swimming lessons, summer preschool (my 4 year old can't wait), hiking, reunions, lots of baking, gardening, and running through the sprinkler just to name a few!!
2018 Topic 21: Matchbox Art Hi everyone, Leandra here As Christmas nears (dare I say it, I have done nothing to prepare yet!) here is a lovely topic that can be used in a practical sense, perhaps table place settings, with a gift, maybe an advent calendar, or maybe for tree decorations, whatever you decide, the topic is very flexible - always handy when time is tight! This is our final Challenge of the year, there will be one more topic to round off the year, but no challenge with that one. Before we start, let's see who won the Topic 20: Foiling Challenge... The winner is: Mac Mable from The Sweetest of Peas I urge you to go and take a look, Mac actually made several samples over the course of the challenge, and a few went into the linked post above, but there were plenty of other beautiful entries this fortnight too! Thanks for joining us, it's nice to see your take on the challenge! Email Leandra to claim your prize. [email protected] So, back to our topic of the next 2 weeks...boy did I find it hard to select ideas, there are so many ways to go with this topic! Just like people have collected 'things' forever: stamps, coins, cards, so it is with matchboxes. Initially created as a practical tool to light a fire or perhaps a cigarette, the outer covers soon became a suitable place for images, advertising or seasonal themes, and hence matchbox collections were born. However, on this occasion, we are more interested on using the box itself as a mini structure. We do like to go small when making art, so this can be great fun, and many see, quite manageable, to tackle a smaller project, than a massive one. Here's a timely idea, an advent calendar blogged by Ally, that is super effective due to the restricted colour palette of kraft, red and white. Check out the link below the picture for more details on its creation. My Creative Space In fact, if that floats your boat, here is a link to a whole bunch of home-made Advent calendars. Within I discovered another matchbox style one hanging from a branch, and the matchboxes were covered with plywood. Again, the colour scheme brings cohesion and simplicity. The Merry Thought In 2013, Manoswelt (Mano's World) embarked on an annual project to create 365 boxes. Many of them are teeny tiny, and the details are astonishing! Check out her blog. December 2013, Mano's World Here is a close up of the one lower right from the earlier picture. A bunch of boxes within a box. It is hard to comprehend the scale of her project, but I adore the idea of a few boxes wrapped up this way, whether a piece of art in itself, or actual gifts, it's cool!! Spun By Me Still on the Christmas theme, Matchboxes as decorations is also going to add a personal touch to your tree. I'm sure you have plenty of images that would work to decorate boxes in this manner! Cute that both the cover and inside are being used to great effect! Kate Crane Here's a fun sample by Kate Crane with her Stampotique stamps. Similar in concept to the Darcy sample at the top of the page, it is fun to have legs that can 'grow' as you slowly open up a matchbox! Luciferdoosje There is a fantastic tutorial here from Kay Williamson who has created the most stunning tiny matchbox library, the detail of each book is astonishing! Kay's Keepsakes This post from Graphic 45 shows how a peek through to the interior can be fun too... Graphic 45 blog Here is a wearable matchbox by Gaby Bee, follow the link to see the reverse side, equally beautiful and therefore 2 wearable options in one composition! Gaby Bee, Colorful Adventure Annette Green I really like this hanging idea by Annette Green, created for G45. So many little details, and if you follow the photo link there is also a video for you of how she made this. Laura Carson Laura Carson designed this chest from Matchboxes for Alpha Stamps. I'm sure you can spot some Tim Holtz hardware in the mix too. As you can see, Laura also made a detailed video series of 2 parts, and a downloadable PDF, so there is plenty of info here if a larger project like this tickles your fancy! My Craft Room So this blew my mind, and clearly it took the lady, Norma, who made it a long time to figure out too! See here for more. She did this project for a Magnolia blog hop, and it is fabulous! She also generously shares the template too. Think of the drawers as pie shaped sections, and you will get there! Isn't it fabulous!! There are plenty more construction projects on my Pinterest page for this topic too. Don't forget to follow Darcy and Leandra's Pinterest boards if this topic pushes your buttons, you will see plenty more examples to whet your appetite there! I am really looking forward to seeing what you create over the next 2 weeks! ~ Leandra An InLinkz Link-up To join our challenge and win a £50 PaperArtsy voucher: Simply make something arty relevant to the topic, and link your creation from any social URL (eg.
