E.'s Care Package

When my sister sent the Spring Care Package for me several weeks ago, E. was almost as tickled with the idea as I was. When I shared this with my sister, she decided to begin putting together a care package for him.


Knowing his love of creatures, she went with an animal theme - with an emphasis on goats, of course - and a bit of art thrown in for good measure.


* A Goat Calendar
* The Dairy Goat Journal (a publication for goat herdsmen)
* A small Silver Tin with a Horse on it which contained a decorative piece of Rope with Feathers and Beads
* The Artful Storybook - a really cool book about making storybook collages
* An Envelope with Goodies to make Collages - Printed Papers, Stickers, Interesting Bits of Labels & Papers
* Two small, old encyclopedias for inspiration and using to make into collages
* World's Weirdest Bats
* Raising Goats for Dummies


Needless to say, he loved it. And got started immediately on a collage, working on it inbetween chapters of Raising Goats for Dummies.
