It’s amazing what you can find on the internet.  First let me say, this wasn’t my idea.  Second, let me say, it turned out quite good.

For those of you who don’t know me, I’m not artistically or creatively inclined in the least.  I had to drop the art class I decided to take in high school because I was flunking it.  No, not getting a C flunking, but actually getting an F flunking.

So rather than have the kids bring in a box, my boss decides we should use the giganitc box we have in our storeroom.  After work on that Tuesday, I stayed late to paint the entire box white along with random other pieces of cardboard for the wings and tail.

On Wednesday I dragged the box upstairs (yay for elevators!) and got all sorts of questions from the kids.  It’s a good thing we had library time right after arts & crafts because we certainly needed the time.

I’ll leave the blow by blow description of how to make this thing to the folk at the Family Fun website.  I’ll leave you with the pictures, including a bonus one with my face in it.
