Out of My Element #1

The first of the three activities this past month was taking on responsibility for the fundraising for the new play structure at the nursery school. Our goal was $3K, and we came up just $10 shy, which was wonderful. We did a silent auction, which went really well, but it all came down to the final day of school so I had no idea how we'd do beforehand.

We auctioned off one of these chairs per class.


It was a team effort (Elizabeth got the chairs, Sabrina had them painted yellow, Nicole did the design, and Nicole and I implemented it). It was actually a fair amount of work over several weeks, but it was really fun. I enjoy doing these crafty projects, and I learn so much from Nicole. In the end, they looked great and brought in almost $1K.
