Top Ten Things Likely
to Happen During Arts and Crafts Time with Andrew
10. As Andrew
merrily worked on a scrapbook about his assignments, he
would at some point look up and notice that the entire
table of Dyeland women are all working on scrapbooks about
him...
9. Andrew would promptly be taught to
either knit or crochet... solely because then his
absolutely beautiful hands would be on display.
8. Our beloved angel of death would
possibly be a touch creeped out if a teddy bear and doll
making session yielded an army of dirt blonde creations
all wearing jeans and flannel shirts or, alternatively,
lovely white suits...
7. All sewing activities would quickly
devolve into making Andrew clothes and rendering him into
an angelic version of a paper doll. Fun for the
ladies... maybe not so much for Andrew!
6. Andrew would hog the glue gun just for
the novel experience of spending time around a gun he
doesn't actually hate. Poor love...
5. During a jewelry making session, Andrew would be
pestered to explain exactly what happened to that earring
of his... Some day the Dyelanders will know the
truth! (Seriously, they will. Promise.)
4. Dyelander ladies would deliberately get
sloppy while using glitter with the purpose of then having
reason to brush the glitter out of Andrew's hair and off
his face. Sigh...
3. A pottery class would yield a bunch of "World's
Best Angel of Death" mugs that would be equally
distributed among the four angels of death befriended by
the Dyelanders. Andrew, Adam, Henry, and Eli would
be left to imagine just what the reaction would be if they
had one of those beauties sitting on their desks during
assignments. Nothing says "Hey, what's the deal with
the crazy new guy???" like a hand-crafted "World's Best
Angel of Death" mug!
2. Andrew would discover that the labels on
all crayons have been replaced with ones bearing names
like "Andrew's Eyes" and "Andrew's Hair" and "The Color
Andrew Turns When He Blushes" and "The Shirt Andrew Wore
When We First Met Blue." The print would be very
tiny...
1. Andrew teaching Woodworking
101... I don't have a joke. I just really love
that visual. And it seems like a good note to end
this on. Enjoy!
