I'm not kidding. They have taken over our home. Ok, well maybe it's not THAT bad. Is there a pencil-topper craze in your home or is this something that just happened here? It started over halfway through the school year when one boy, a boy Bryn was (still is?) smitten with, brought some to school. Soon, most everyone in the class had purchased some and were getting involved in trading them. Evidently it got so out of hand that her teacher finally had to say, "No more pencil toppers in the classroom." Sheesh.
And, yes, I know. You're wondering, "Is she ever going to find something OTHER THAN "Craft Fair" to create with? And, ummmmm, no... I'm just not tired of it yet. And considering those owls look like some of the bug-eyed pencil toppers in Bryn's collection... it was a must. ;-)
Say hello to AC DT is what I say!!!!

What a fun page! Pencil toppers has not hit our schools yet. Last I knew it was the silly bandz. Love the owls. :)

I still want that Craft Fair kit. Me, I don't care if a line is "old" - I just use anything if I like it.
That's a fun page. I haven't heard of the pencil topper craze here, but those Silly Bands are still pretty popular.

lol!!! the pencil topper has NOT taken over at our house. But, that story about Bryn and the boy reminds me of a very similar story of me when I was in 5th grade.
As it states in my diary "Josh gave me a blue bouncy ball today".

The owls are perfect. She's not into silly bands yet, is she? That's the crazy obsession around here. But I think the pencil toppers are much cuter than silly bands.
