Everywhere a Bookmark: Duct Tape Edition
All of my library kids are in love with bookmarks. They love using them for school books, workbooks, journals, library books- pretty much everywhere in their daily lives. And since one thing we highly encourage is for them NOT to dog-ear our books, having an abundance of bookmarks and bookmark crafts is a good thing. One […]
Upcycling T-Shirts
I missed the dress-up gene somewhere along the line. I go to conferences, I go to amusement parks, and I see people in business casual attire or dresses, going around in heels or other dress shoes, and all I can think of is, “How can they do that?” My work shoes are a dressy version […]

Zombie Tea Party Program Ideas
No matter where I’ve worked, I’ve always had teens that were engrossed in Pride and Prejudice. Usually it started with the movie versions and then they devoured the rest of Austin’s works. However, with the movie version of Seth Grahame-Smith’s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies coming out in two weeks, it has gotten a whole new group of teens […]
