I really do appreciate how much you reuse and repurpose things. I try to stay away from craftst that I know we will just throw away after a day that use more than just a piece of paper. There is purpose to all we do, but so much can be reused…
I also wanted to let you know you have a Super Award waiting for you at my blog. Come over to “get” it.

Just in time for me to add to our post on ABC & 123, tomorrow's all about recycled crafs and activities! I'm going to link to this post and the one on using old magazines to make beads, okay Valerie?

Thank you, Annette. I know what you mean about staying away from "high consuming" crafts. It can seem like such a waste sometimes. And thank you for the award — what a nice surprise!
Katie, that would be fabulous, and I will add ABC & 123 to my blog roll (if I haven't already). Your comments have made my day!

So many great ideas. Growing up I loved those can stilts. They were so much fun.

I love your recycled craft ideas, and the fact that you have an invention kit! I can’t wait until we have a house with a basement, because then I’ll have room to do stuff like that!
