Xuzi Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I'm so proud of myself! I came up with, and then DID, something crafty, all by myself! :lol: That is huge for me! I couldn't find a kid's chore chart that wasn't either made for weekly chores, or had the chores already printed on the chart, so I MADE one. I also made a small calender that my kids can add the days and months to during our Circle Time. Being "Calender Helper" was both of their favorite preschool "jobs", and I wanted a nice, small calender that they could continue that tradition on. So I made one. I'm a bit embarassed about how giddy and proud I am of them (and how deeply in love I am with my laminator :tongue_smilie:) Hopefully this pic shows up (and yes I realize the June is dated wrong. I just stuck the numbers on as I applied the velcro so they wouldn't get lost. They've since been moved to their proper places. ;) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HollyBee Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 That's so funny--I made a calendar almost exactly like that one (right down to the velcro dots) with my laminator! Nicely done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 It's a little disturbing how awesome and productive I feel with my laminator... Doing something? Meh. Laminating it? Like having super powers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYoungerMrsWarde Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm so jealous! Here "laminating" means clear packaging tape and a lot of time and bubbles :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarleneW Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Very cool! I LOVE my laminator- I think is was only like $15 on Amazon at Christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Yeah. Mine was about the same at Sam's club. And the pouches are, like, $5 for 50. Cheap. Cheaper than packing tape or contact paper, I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyR Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Yeah, I have a laminator and haven't used it yet. My sister gave it to me. I'm so used to using packing tape to laminate stuff that I haven't used it. Where is the best place to find the best price for laminating sheets? I laminate a lot of flash cards and would love to try it out. But don't feel like paying a million dollars for a few sheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems sort of high to me. I'd look at Sam's or Costco if you have a membership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYoungerMrsWarde Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Use contact paper! Where would I find that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
