One of my longtime favorite summer activities is visiting gardens. Often towns will organize a garden tour through several private gardens in the area and you pay one price and go from garden to garden in that town. Once, about 25 years ago (omg I’m old!), my sister and I went to

And now for something completely different - it’s fine art time! I prepared a redesign concept of the Swiss National Museum’s homepage. It relates to the Swiss flag and uses a Swiss font - Helvetic...

Well now for something completely different, instead of vintage, Art Deco. I did the card in this style as I was asked to make this card for a friends' boyfriend, and I'm not very good at making cards for men unless I really know them. Anyway here's my attempt... The main design in the middle was made by me, here is the template if you wish to use it I printed out three times and cut them out like this... The embossed lines on the silver silk mirri card were made using my Scor-pal. The rhinestone 30 I bought and the only embellishments used were some rhinestone brads and peel offs. Inside the card the diamond embossing was done using the smallest square Nestabilitie and again the lines were made using the Scor-pal. The poem I found on the web. I'm not sure I like it, but I think that maybe because I didn't distress anything :oD Anyway I hope she likes it. Thank you for looking, oh here's another Art Deco template I made Take care and keep smiling.

REMEMBER SAMBUCA? It was very popular during the 70s, 80s, and 90s... and now it's making a big, well-deserved comeback.

Snaps to Sarah for spotting this 1960s catalog of vacation houses promoting the use of Douglas Fir Plywood. It includes some pretty snappy — and in their way, hilarious — designs. “Novelty” vacation home ideas — my favorite is the Japanese tea house… but the Homarina, set right over the water… Home + Marina, get…

When students’ minds become overloaded - take a break to refocus their thoughts on something completely different to re-energize them for the next activity. These activities and "not-really" worksheets will do just the trick! This product is also available in (1) my bundle Teacher's Toolkit Bundle - and in (2) my mega-bundle ELA Mega Bundle Collection. Check them out now for some great deals! This resource provides 47 pages of 12 detailed, how-to brain breaks with all the resources you'll need (and then some) for your middle or high school class room. Perfect for all subject areas! Some of these are designed to invigorate and some to relax teen minds. Brain breaks change the way their brains are functioning – they don’t stop the mind from functioning (in case you need to make that clear). Teens want to understand the relevance of what they are doing, so understanding the purpose of the brain breaks gives them reason to buy-in and to know how to apply them. View a video preview at: https://youtu.be/1lUUn-vABpU (Just highlight and right click.) These brain breaks can be used before, during, or after a lesson to enhance the learning experience. You can make them last for just a couple of minutes or broaden them to a mini-lesson. Some can be used over a few times to become a regular treat kids can look forward to. Also, use these as a springboard to think of extensions to create some of your own customized brain breaks. For younger kids, brain breaks tend to focus on motor movement. More advanced teen minds respond to a broader range of activities, plus many teens are so self-conscious that asking them to do physical movements can be counterproductive. If physical movement is involved, it generally needs to be the right kind so as not to be potentially embarrassing to them. Contents Include: → Creative Drama Game → Left/Right Brain Challenge: Working the Non-dominant Side → Two Truths and a Lie → Bambi Meets Godzilla → One-Stroke Animal Sketch → Sign Language Brain Break → Embrace the PSA → Zen Koan Puzzle → Ink Blot Test → Twenty Questions → Partner Air Writing → Deep Breathing - Three Sounds Below are some comments about these brain breaks at work in classrooms: 1) "I used this the first week of school and the kids really liked them! I look forward to using the others throughout the school year." 2) "I'm pleased I found this to try this fall. Brain breaks are so essential on a block schedule." 3) "Love this resource. Have used it with 6th Grade through to 9th Grade. " 4) "Perfect for my stressed out students." 5) "These are great! Quite a few I hadn't heard of before."
