I agree Courtney!! It would pretty interesting to see what everyone comes up with...I like the idea of the list being composed of items that are certainly on hand and easy to obtain!  I personally like the caddy or organizer idea....cause I can use all the organization items I can get!!!!!!!  The more organized I am the more I can fit!!!!!  WOOO HOOO! ^hmsterdnc^

Courtney is a genius!  I like the theme idea! We have a February project, so maybe something for March/april...spring...or maybe some kind of spring/Easter basket?

Well, let's work out the specifics, like the materials list, decided how many things are the least amount of items we can incorporate, and so on.  Then the theme, and the deadline.  April seems a long way away, but things like that have a way of sneaking up on you no matter how far away, lol.
Whatever deadline you all want is great with me.  I think with the recycle theme I will try to buy nothing new (except maybe glue or anything else I might need for actual construction.)

We need to have something really weird in the supply list too - something we would normally throw away, just to make it more challenging. How about something like the ring from a gallon of milk - you know the plastic thing you have to pull off in order to open it.

I love to see how some of us use something like that!

That's looking like a good list of items. I'll be thinking on some other ideas.
