I have a video on Flourishes blog and my blog that show's this in its full view and moving and closer detail. Here is the basics on this carousel. This was so much fun to make and the boys teacher absolutely LOVED it. She cried and was just amazed. I couldn't add a lot of fufu stuff since it needed to be functional for years to come. However I added the right amount of everything she said. The boys were just beaming when they brought it in. The kids were so excited but mad that they weren't going to be the first class to use it. hee hee
Flourishes Power Hour Release party last night was fun. Stop on over at the Flourishes Blog for you chance to win this set today called Enjoy the Ride. I stamped out all the horses and then glued them with the magnet in the center and put different designer papers from Memory box and Basic grey for the back of each horse. That way when you look through you will see some fancy paper and not a white back of the horse. This turns as you see in the video. Each child will pick the color of horse they want and have their name written on the oval. I used clear card stock and with a washable marker she can re-use the ovals for years.The teacher will write her 12 jobs on the spellbinders label at the top, she always has 12 jobs each year in the class.
