Bit of a drive-by posting. (Sorry. Life is being… difficult, but I’m getting there.) The versatility of cardboard comes though for me again. A Birthday Cake box for Harry Potter’s Birthday Party (which will contain wee, ickle fairy cakes on the day) #LibraryLife Just finished it yesterday.

A trompe l’oeil Birthday Cake box. The bottom, inner, portion is crudely painted to look like a Victoria sponge, dribbled bits of jam included. The top part (which slides down over the bottom/inner) is covered in lots of layers pink, wrinkled and PVA glued tissue paper.
The top/outside of the pink Birthday Cake box has green ‘icing’ (string liberally coated in green tinted PVA glue) that reads - HAPPEE BIRTHDAE HARRY.

Visiting an old haunt today. Very surprised (& pleased) to see this tiny addition I made to the notice board yonks ago still there ☺️😇🤭 #publibs#LibraryHumour#ForThoseOfACertainAge

A teeny tiny bit of paper doodled up to look old and featuring a few fake bullet holes at the bottom right. 
(Read in the style of The A Team into)

"In 1972, a crack North Lanarkshire Library unit was sent to prison by a Dewey Decimal Court for a shelving crime they didn't commit.
These bibliophiles promptly escaped from a maximum security repository to the literary underground.
Today, still wanted by the Head of Libraries they survive as shelvers of fortune.
If you have a problem bookshelf, if no one else can help, and if you can find them.... maybe you can hire THE A TO Z TEAM."

🎶 Nah na nah. Duh duh duuh. Da dada da d’ daa. Nah nanana nah! 🎶

You can do all of these things online, but If anyone needs forms downloaded and printed or help filling them in pop in to your nearest library for assistance. I’ve had all the various forms printed and ready to go for folk since the start of the year so don’t be shy, we’re there to help you ☺️

When I was 4 years old I had a very lovely, & very well loved, pair of these in blue. First go of having my feet sized in the big machine you had to stand on (that DIDN’T squash your tootsies even though it certain seemed like it would) to get them. I was convinced these shoes made me run faster.
