Too late for Tea Tuesday

KNOCK, KNOCK...
HELLO... 
Does anyone still care what I have to say and share after all this time. Yikes! 
I've been keeping my screen time at a minimum lately...mostly just enjoying our unseasonably warm weather. I was too late to even have tea today.

I actually have been working on a few projects...none of them ready for viewing.

I did want to share Little J's school project though. She came up with the concept...I just had to help figure out how to make it stand alone.  
 I covered a bowl in wax paper then had her glue row after row of mini-marshmallows. After everything set up for several days I was able to remove the bowl leaving the wax paper intact.


Check out the little fire she thought up as well. Tiny rocks from the sandbox and a synthetic dyed leaf cut into "fire" smooshed into a pool of glue before placing the igloo. 

The photos don't show it but the whole works was sprinkled with a generous coating of iridescent  glitter for that "authentic" snow look.  

I'm sure everyone else has already left their links over at Kimmie's blog long ago. Stop by and see for yourself.

  4. I'm with Kimmie. It's NEVER too late for tea. I adore the igloo and how you engineered it. Yesterday and today it got cold. Now the temps have dropped considerably. I am glad you are still enjoying your lovely weather.
