An apple made out of a paper back book. I am so happy with how it turned out!
Spencer's homeroom teacher is a Language Arts teacher and she does the reading assignments. I thought this would be so much more fun to give an English teacher than post-its.
I did not come up with this great idea. I wish I was that creative, but I am an awesome copier and follower of directions! I got the idea from this blog. It has a tutorial and it is really quite easy to do.
Although it is kind of messy. I had paper bits everywhere. The paperback I used was an old copy of Gone with The Wind. I really wanted to find a dictionary to use, but I didn't have time to find one. I think I'm going to start going to the garage sales around here and see if I can find some.

And the card I made to go with it. The pictures aren't the best, but I just finished this tonight and it has to go to school with Spencer tomorrow. So I had to take it inside and our lighting isn't the best. Maybe one day I will get one of those indoor lighting studio things, but for now I will use my fireplace mantel.
I'm going to make another one for Connor's teacher for an end of the year gift. (His school does different things for Teacher Appreciation Week and this didn't really fit into any of those themes.)
Thanks for visiting me!
