Prompt: Research Project Team: Don’t Stop Be-Leafing Project Name: Reader’s Haven book nook Project Link:Reader’s Haven booknook (pic-heavy) Brief Description: I made this for my DIL for Christmas. I know I previously posted up a few parts of this project but the parts I didn’t post, and just even the assembly meet the requirements for RP. This will also be my BLUE RIBBON ENTRY for mixed media. It is my own design, from the ground up, and features wood, paper, paint, fabric, etc. I am also applying this to the Duck Pond game under the County Fair challenge. It definitely required a careful selection of parts. Project Photo(s):

Prompt: Zap Team: Don’t Stop Beleafing Project Name: WiP/Carfty To-do’s Tracker Pg Project Link: N/A Brief Description: After making my Nerd Games tracker pages, I’m a teeny bit addicted to making fun tracker pages in Canva.

Prompt: October Sporty Team: Don’t Stop Beleafing Project Name: Felted Mole Project Link: - Brief Description:
Are moles sporty? Probably not? I wouldn’t know as I don’t watch sports or know sports teams. My house prefers competition reality tv. So I’m going to call this in honor of The Mole tv show, which I enjoy. He’s needle felted and about 3" long.
Event: Experience the Fair - Barns
Moles are insectivores, eating 70-100% of their body weight in worms, grubs and insects every day
Moles can dig up to 15 feet (about 4.5 meters) per hour
Moles are some of the only animals that can smell in stereo, meaning they can determine the direction from which smells are traveling
I’m also submitting this for the Experience the Fair event — Games - Ring Toss because these are small and require precision (and reading glasses ) to paint.
Brief Description: although the birds themselves are an important part of the ecosystem, these painted stone representations are just purely for looks.

These guys are a blast to make. They are adorable and adaptable and I might have to make 50…
Bad news. I did the math and I have beads for 80.
Good news. I think they’d be a nice addition to my magic item gifting stash for Renn Faire next summer.
