Like everyone else, I continue to be emotional over the events of last Friday in Newtown CT. The more we learn about the children and educators whose lives were taken, the more emotional I get, and I didn't think I could get more emotional.
I have a need to channel my emotions into something productive, usually something creative ( or chocolate!). So when I read on
Mom Endeavors about the following idea, I knew I had to share it with my creative readers.
From
Mom Endeavors: Snowflakes for Sandy Hook:
When school resumes for Sandy Hook, it will be in a new building. Parent-volunteers want to ensure that the students are welcomed back by a winter wonderland with the entire school decorated with as many unique snowflakes as possible. So, please help the students of Sandy Hook have a winter wonderland at their new school! Get creative as no two snowflakes are alike!!
Please send your snowflakes to the Connecticut PTSA no later than January 12, 2013:
Connecticut PTSA
60 Connolly Parkway
Building 12, Suite 103
Hamden, CT 06514
I am for sure putting my Christmas dinner guests to work on this project. Whether you're crafty or not, everyone can make a snowflake. Just like us they don't have to be perfect to bring about a smile.
For some inspiration, I even created a Pinterest board here
