Thanks for all the ideas!

Hi guys! Thanks for your ideas for Anna's 100th Day t-shirt! Anna and Danny went to Michael's yesterday to see what they could find for her shirt that was under $8. We didn't want to spend a lot of money on a shirt she may never wear again! So, they looked, and looked, and found lots of neat stuff, but nothing you could use 100 of and still stay within our price-range. They found lots of pretty stamps, but most were too big, so they settled on the idea of iron-on transfers. I went online today and found some cute pics of Hello Kitty and printed off 100 of these tiny little pictures, and ironed them onto a shirt that had been stained (luckily, Hello Kitty covered up all the stains!). The transfers weren't that bright, but it does the job. I'll post a picture as soon as I can!

The Big 100

Okay everyone, I need your help! Anna's Kindergarden celebrates their 100th day in school like it's Christmas! They do projects, write books, make up songs, and plan tons of activities around this 100th day. Well, that day is Jan. 30th, and Anna is required to wear a shirt with EXACTLY 100 things on it. They can be glued, sewed, or pinned on the shirt, and it needs to be creative. Now, I don't want her to have a cheesy shirt with 100 cotton balls glued on it, or 100 buttons sewn on; it needs to be something Anna would actually want to put on her body, and something we can work on together, or at least she can help me with. I am welcome to any and all ideas you throw at me! Thanks!
