I've trained my students not to fold down corners to hold their places, not to bend book spines backwards, not to eat too close to books... but all that being said, I can't wait to see what you do with your chopped up dictionary! And onto the to do list: first on it is wrapping up your swap box (squeal!), then getting ready for a weekend away with the family. Enjoy yours!sulu-designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14997610829986070303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-65001222258425931212007-04-26T17:07:00.000-05:002007-04-26T17:07:00.000-05:00That idea of books being sacred and never to be da...That idea of books being sacred and never to be damaged is a VERY hard one to overcome, I know!

Needless to say the books I made for my nieces last year, I used all copies of pictures and the originals are still in tact. How crazy is that? <BR/>My projects today, well, not crafty. How about catching up on a little housework because I have been spending all my time sewing and neglecting the mess that is my house. LOL <BR/>My next project is Mady's outfit. That will probably be this weekend sometime. I have to mail it by Tuesday or Wednesday for her to get it by her birthday. It should only take a couple of hours to do, no biggie.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00550898784150290708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-84477090602178513322007-04-26T12:03:00.000-05:002007-04-26T12:03:00.000-05:00I suggest cutting while they're napping.

I also picked up an algebra text book that I can't wait to hack to pieces!<BR/><BR/>My to-do list for today is to try not to start on a 1970's purse from a fantastic pattern my coworker just loaned me, but to finish up projects I'm going to be selling at a craft fair next weekend.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16977677896910636776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-24841953258714513842007-04-26T10:35:00.000-05:002007-04-26T10:35:00.000-05:00I love cutting up dictionary pages!!

I also love the little black and white pictures that some of them have! I currently have about 5 sitting in a pile waiting to be cut up, so I guess I will pass on your offer!! My to-do list? Laundry, laundry, laundry. Yuck!Roxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16668108402070167138noreply@blogger.com
