This board I just taped construction paper together and shaped it from there, I did my trees and the building free hand. I love to try new things to put on my boards! The apples on the trees have the children's names on them.

Easter basket

I made to put up for the April board but I did not get a picture of the board done sorry!

March / St. Patrick's Day

I had not titled it before I took the picture it was titled "we are all gold in God's eyes" on that one I made the pot of gold out of I believe it was 6 pieces of construction paper taped together and drew the pot and cut it out then I made a big sheet of yellow and traced circles for the gold in the pot, but the gold out of the pot was individual circles of gold

Winter / Fireplace

Spring

I did last spring I colored and laminated everything because they tried to curl up on me! then I had all the kids colored their own butterflies and I put them up all over around the stuff I put up there first.

<------Close up

These are pictures of my fall bulletin board, the first picture is the full board all the way complete, the second one is a close-up of "Harold" the owl, I worked on him so hard I had to name him, he is made out of construction paper, I freehanded him, he was so much fun to make! I put him on a tree branch but he was so big I had to make it look like the tree was only part way on the board. Then for the border I cut out a leaf pattern and balled up wax paper and painted the leaf with the ball of wax paper dippin in orange paint, then dipped in brown paint, then the last step was dipped in red paint, I painted them like you would sponge paint. then I painted a picture of a pumpkin and put the children's names on that. With the left over leaves from what I did the border with I scattered in the empty spots, I put the left over pumpkins on there as well just in case we have new kids start here, and they will be able to have a pumpkin as well.

Thanksgiving bulletin board, I drew the Cornucopia and painted it brown, waited for it to dry and added the decorative border so it looked more realistic with brown marker, I then drew all my fruits and vegetables. I made the fruits and vegetables out of construction paper and cut them out and added any details needed. I hung the Cornucopia on the board then used a razor blade to cut just along the inside of the decorative border so that I could tuck the fruits and vegetables so they looked as if they were actually spilling out of the Cornucopia. I have not yet put up a header for this board, I am looking for the best verse that "fits"

I made everything for this board, I enjoyed doing this one very much, I cut strips and put them together for the nativity and them made Mary and Joseph, but I cut the baby Jesus out of a workbook from the Abeka Curriculum, I watered down brown finger paint and painted yellow paper with it and cut it in thin strips and then cut it the other way to make straw, I laminated it all so it would keep better, and also to keep the "straw" from making a mess so that it wouldn't fall off all over the floor. I made the angels and glittered their wings. I then cut out musical notes from foil, (thanks to a co worker drawing them, I can not draw those to save my life, lol) and I got the title from my Mom saying something about "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" so I said how about use the name of the daycare instead, Jack and Jill.
