I've had several people asking me about my winter boards. I started doing them the same year I started my blog!! So here are all the images of the finished products. They've changed a bit over the years, but you can approach it however you like. When I first started, I just put paper up for the background. Since then I've done both painted backgrounds & woven. If you have questions...please leave me a comment!! I'd be happy to help out any way I can! (if you have an odd couple days before Christmas break..you could do it then! Winter goes through Feb..right?)

Beautiful colour. Sure warms up a cold day. I want to make one of these as well as use your idea in a class. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful, so exuberant! I especially love how bright and cheerful this year's board is!
ReplyDeleteThat was my main thought Phyl...bright/colorful! I love how it turned out!
DeleteI love them. Have the children in a class contributed a little each? How much direction did you give and did they have a hand in assembling them too?
ReplyDeleteGretchen....you ask too much!! Haha June two days before holiday...I have my 10 classes(out of 26) each make a pieces. I assign each class different parts & teach them how to do it. I let the older student help me assemble part of it.
DeleteThank you for your time. They are great. I will be pinning and trying.
DeleteI LOVE these!! I especially like that you have established a tradition at your school that I am sure everyone looks forward to seeing (and making) each year.
ReplyDeleteTed, the others are cool, but the one you did this year is just gorgeous. I love it!
