Theme Thursday - Numbers


Do you remember picture day at school? You left home all scrubbed and primped and by the time it was your turn in front of the camera you were just a little bit frayed and had a smudge or two of dirt on your clothing. I love looking at vintage school photos. You can almost pick out the children who were shy and those who were mischievious. This lot doesn't look too happy! This is my entry for this week's Theme Thursday challenge.

One picture day especially comes to mind for our eldest son in kindergarten. He had Shirley Temple curly locks, they combed his hair and he had this big bouffant style that was nothing like his real hair, kinda funny. Love this piece Heather! The way you layer and put things together is just so special!

Heather we must stop meeting like this...lol.
a wonderful piece you captured so much...your numbers chart reminds me of a height chart and the 2girls look scared stiff...but look at their shoes... they are soooo dusty it was a hot dry day and they must have walked for miles before the start of their school day.
love chriss x
