Re: A Handmade Gift

This is such a cute idea! I was inspired to make one of my own. I went a little crazy in picking out my numbers! Here are some of my ideas:

I used a penny for 1, a dime for 10 and a quarter for 25. I used pieces of an old wooden ruler for 7 and 28. I found an old metal cattle ear tag for 26. Thanks to my husband, I used a bottle top from a bottle of Mexican Dos Equs beer for the 20 (It has XX on the lid, like Roman Numerals). I robbed some metal numbers off old electrical poles for 17, 23 and 30. I used dominoes and old stamps, too. I used old colorful buttons for many of the remaining numbers and printed off the numbers on clear address labels.


If I find my digital camera cord, I will post photos of my calendar. I certainly got some crazy looks from my husband. Usually he likes my creative ideas, but this was a little over the top for him.

What fun and a quick project!
