The Attic - finished!

 

I finally finished  all the 60-odd contents of "Vern's Attic" on Sunday. Got them all packed up in daily packages for the Advent calendar for Jonah and Holly.

Got everything written up in the book, printed and bound.


It took about 12 hours to write and print the book and another 8 or so to pack everything up and number all the packages.

The bare-bones of the attic.

Sent everything off to my Dear DIL Julie, who will look after the distribution of this as an Advent Calendar.

I could have sworn I had taken a picture of the attic with the pieces in it beforehand but evidently I didn't. A small part of the delay in posting was trying to find at least one picture of the attic with something in it.

It will arrive in Peterborough tomorrow morning - just in time!

I already have ideas for half of new things for next year and I've asked Julie to listen for anything else that Sean might mention as they furnish it with what I've sent so far. (And I'll probably print out the book for DD Leanne so she can suggest additions since it was her idea in the first place.)
