Been Craftin' Again



Does it look like it would take a month to make this? Well, it shouldn't! I special ordered the four colors of crayons to match Jana's room at school. I was kinda depressed after figuring out that I could have just bought 16 boxes of crayon's and spend $4 v. the $16+ S/H for special ordering. On top of spending more than I needed to, and when I FINALLY received them, they got the order wrong. I ordered a box of 64 with 4 colors--pink, yellow, green, and orange. They sent 2 sets of orange and left out the green. So I called, and the "Crayola guy" I talked to was very nice and said he would get those right out. So I went ahead and worked on it with what I had, leaving room for the green ones when I got them. I got up one Saturday morning to a pile of yellow, cink and orange crayons! Apparantly, Braxton didn't like idea of crayons being glued, evenly spaced, around a wooden hoop!
So, I thought Crayola guy was just sending the green ones, but I got a complete new order, again FINALLY. So a month after trying to get this thing put together, I finally finished, and just in time for Jana's 40th Birthday!! Does anyone need 16 pink, yellow, or orange crayons?

Can't say that I do unless they're already made up on one of those adorable Crayola wreaths -- super cute, Denise! :)
