My friend Kathy suggested a birthday ladder set. The bottom square is a chalkboard. I think it turned out pretty cute! E-mail me if you'd like a set. $25
...Making more sets with color variations- pictures to come!...
"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds, or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before... Creation brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we [create] something of beauty.
What you create doesn't have to be perfect. Don't let fear of failure discourage you. Don't let the voice of critics paralyze you- whether that voice comes from the outside or the inside.
As you take the normal opportunities of your daily life and create something of beauty and helpfulness, you improve not only the world around you but also the world within you."
