So, it's the first week of school. My daughter comes home for the first weekend break, and on Friday night, late before bed, she declares "oh! One of my assignments is to cover my math book!" Ok. No problem. Except... "Oops. I left the book at school!" This isn't really relevant to the project, except it gave up plenty of time to decide what cover to make. She just started reading the Harry Potter books after years of prodding and buzzed through 1-4. She's working on 5, but school slows the process down. We decided to have a mini-marathon and checked out 1-3 at the library (4 is on HBO. Why only that one, though? Really??) Bada-bing, bada-boom, long story short, the epiphany "LETS MAKE A CARE OF MAGICAL CREATURES FURRY COVER!!" So we made a run to Joanns. She picked the furry fabric, what kid of eyes it would have and how many, and if we would add any more specific movie details. I measured and folded, she helped cut. I got glued, while she held things in place. It's completely held in place by hot glue. I should take some fashion photos of it later, but don't want to wait to post this. I hope it holds the whole school year, or at least as long as her new love of HP will allow. I can give more details if anyone needs help constructing it. I could also make and sell one to those of us who aren't as craft-talented. Craft-ilicious? Craft-macncheese? Craft-ka-teer? Whatever. I should have an etsy site, but I'm too lazy.
