I love, love, love to multitask
I also love multiuse
so in an effort to make one decoration for our St. Patrick's Day party
involve my kids
have it match my kitchen
and count down to our Legoland trip
{Legoland is discounted for homeschoolers}
we made this paper chain...
it's made from some cute scrap booking papers that have super cute patterns
every other strip was decorated by my kids, husband and myself {family time}
it has the number of rings to match how many days 'til we leave for our trip {so we don't have to count everyday 'cause they're excited}
it's green, which I LOVE, and we made it the day before our party
check, check, check
{multiuse}
our paper chain hangs in front of the bookshelf my grandpa made me for my high school graduation which now holds most of our homeschool materials
I am dying to paint it and maybe add some molding and detail to the doors
so stay tuned
**side note :: one of my favorite multitask/multiuse things is when I have the dishwasher and laundry going while I am doing two or three other things...
