Travis Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 School starts in 3 or 4 weeks! Can you believe it!? What happened? Did your summer seem to go quicker than normal? Mine sure did. With school right around the corner, I thought a Back To School challenge would be fun. Make something for your kids or grand kids for school. Perhaps something for their teacher. Or maybe some learning toys for a school or preschool? Have fun with it and get creative. I can't wait to see what y'all come up with.

RabidAlien Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 A couple of Steve Good pieces I did a while back for a friend who's a substitute teacher (I did not, in fact, shut up and kiss her, she wanted that for her husband ).

meflick Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Believe it not Travis, many around here have already started back to school. They do get a Fall Break though and will be done for the year by the end of May. I remember when we didn’t start until after Labor Day.

MrsN Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 My teacher stuff starts next week and kids start right after labor day. I am looking forward to the new year, although I do love sleeping in during the summer. I will try to get some of my classroom projects posted.

Shari Posted August 17, 2018 Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 I made this crayon holder for my friend's grandson. I found the pattern in a book of woodworking projects. The truck body and trailer are made from poplar wood. I bought the wheels from the local Hobby Lobby. I painted it with acrylic craft paint and finished it with a few coats of polyurethane. And yes, he's a big fan of dinosaurs. Karl S, meflick, Travis and 6 others 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 This challenge spread over 2 months. I had a lot going on for September. And before I realize I didn't do a September challenge, I was almost 3 weeks in to September. Woops. RabidAlien 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
