A Valentine Butterfly {Virtual Fridge}

This Week
Sir N and I enjoyed searching out a heart project to do on Pinterest.  Here is the result of our labour



Featured This Week
I've been reading all about the snow in the US while living through 44'C (110'F) days here so enjoyed the look of this tutorial:  Tissue Paper Snowflakes shared in last weeks linky


Over at Tot's and Me scroll down and take a look at the book shared on Hand Art along with the beautiful results.  Such a great idea with easy to do drawing projects for little people.



Your Turn

I invite you to take some photo's of your children's artistic pursuits put them in a post and link up with me I would love to come over and see the wonderful art your children have enjoyed doing.

I read this little gem many many years ago as a child and was thrilled when I found it in a library sale. I read it to Sir N yesterday and he loved every minute of this story.  Clyde wrote it one day when reflecting on what it felt like to be the new kid in town and not fitting in. He begged me today to read it again to him today.

I have found all the books I've read by him to be well written and treasures to have on the shelf.  We have also enjoyed the following written by him

There were some amazing books shared in last weeks link up don't forget to check them out.

 Welcome to Tuesdays Treasures.  I started these posts as a way of sharing great books in honour of my friend in New Zealand who would arrive with the treasures she had unearthed at her weekly trip to the library!

There are so many wonderful books out there hiding on shelves so I invite you to blog about a book on your shelf, one you're reading or one you found at the library. Grab the button for your post and add a link to your post below. I would love to read about your treasures.
