Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!
Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! Thanks so much for joining me here for this weekly get together which unites crafty bloggers from around the world and hopefully inspires all those who stop by for a visit. I have to say, this last week's party was full of some amazing inspiration, and I'm so happy to share it with you here.

Vacation Crafts: Sidewalk Chalk
I was looking for the source of a photo for a Jewish newspaper and came across this post from 2010 that I never posted for some reason!
