I hadn't uploaded some of my past displays to Flickr yet, I had a bulletin board I did for the Big Read and my Banned Books display from last fall still on my computer.
The Big Read title this year was "To Kill a Mockingbird", our book club didn't do it, but we got some great promotional stuff so I wanted to use it in our branch.
I drew, cut, and painted the tree. This turned out to be a huge amount of work. The projector I wanted to use to enlarge the tree from a picture had a burnt bulb, which I needed to drive to a photography store to replace. Of course I did this all last minute so I was running around trying to get it done.
I did this other display last fall during Banned Books Week, I like to do something every year, but this year was a pirate theme, which I was all over.
This treasure chest was so much fun to put together. I used craft paper and construction paper, which I painted and drew on to make it look like wood. I found some of the coins around the library, I think I bought the cloth (which is a nice velvety fabric), the jewels, and the necklace. I cut up some boxes that we never use to create a leveled effect inside the big box.
I think I've now uploaded all of them I took a picture of, I may have some on my old computer with my old camera though. I like taking pictures of the things I put together like this because it helps me remember what I've done in the past. Sometimes I look around online for ideas for displays from other libraries too, so I hope these help out other people looking too.
