Sometime during the school year, Riley and five other girls in her class organized themselves into a club they call the Giggly Girls. Besides being inseparable at school, they get together about once a month at one of their houses to watch a movie or just play. Yesterday it was our turn to host the giggly fun. Here they are eating their snack: (Andrien, McCall, Bethany, Riley, Rilee, and Niccolina)
Riley and I thought it would be fun for them to make a craft using my vinyl-cutting machine. We decided to let them each make a wooden sign to hang in their rooms. Here are the three that were still here when I remembered to take a picture. They turned out cute, huh?
Afterwards I got to be thinking what a fun idea it would be for a birthday party. It really was super easy. I went to Home Depot and bought a 1"x8"x6' and cut the wood into 1 foot sections. Then I drilled the holes for the ribbon. When the girls got here, I let them choose their paint, vinyl and ribbon color and tell me what word or words they wanted on their sign. Most of the girls did their name or nickname. A couple of them wanted "BFF" (?) and another girl who shares a room with her sister put "Sisters" on her sign. Then they sanded their board down and painted it while I cut out their words. When the paint was dry, they applied their letters to their board, strung the ribbon through, and there ya have it: 6 happy girls.
