HFClassicalAcademy Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 I made ours from poster board and just formed the cone. Then I just decorated them! Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragons in the flower bed Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 What did you decorate them with? Did you draw the princess, St. George, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HFClassicalAcademy Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 I did make and draw the princess...St. George and the dragon were clip art from the computer that I printed, put on cardstock, cut and colored. :001_smile: Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HFClassicalAcademy Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 Oh! I made the mini paper tissue flowers as well. The pirate ship was all me too!! I forget to give myself credit sometimes! It took me a week of working on the cones cutting stuff out, gluing, etc. But it was worth it to see the look on the kids' faces and they were counting down the days for WEEKS!! They were begging to start school because they knew that they would get their cones, they would get crowned into a new grade, and we would do our first day of school march.

truebluexf Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Looks like fun. :) I'd heard of the cones before but never the crowning! Maybe I need to make something too now, though the kids have all dug through all my new supplies already lol. We never really officially ended last year bc of moving and other craziness, so it would be great to have a ceremony to start this one! What is your march?

NanceXToo Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Excuse me, but, can you please tell me how to place my order and how much they will cost? Do you have a pen? I've got my shipping address ready for you! hehe. I'd buy those things! (seriously!) They look fantastic, almost professional! How adorable! I'd never be able to be THAT creative.

Novafan Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Love love love that you did Schultüte for your kids! We just moved back to Germany and I plan to do this for my 1st grader when we start in a week and a half. My now 5th grader started the 1st grade in a German public school a few years ago and we made him a Schultüte and participated in the big to-do that they do for new 1st graders. It was so much fun!! My middle child (now 3rd grade) never had the experience so I'm going to make him and my daughter one for the start of this school year.
