As for the 'D' page. I am so thrilled with how this one turned out. First I cut out the door. Then I cut out a piece of blue felt that would be behind the door. Then I drew the outline of the opening and cut it out. Then I cut out a piece of clear vinyl the same size as the blue felt and and sewed it to the felt, but only laong the top. Then I attached it to the page along the other 3 sides. Then came the door (made with two pieces of felt for sturdiness). I think the kids will enjoy seeing their pictures behind the door. Another idea would be to sew on a little plastic mirror (like the ones you see in baby toys??).

I love this book! How did you attach the clothesline to the page? I'd love to do one like that.
BB- I used a yarn needle and pulled that sucker through as hard as a could:) Another option would be to just put the ends of the line under felt, just make the clothesline poles out of felt, you know what I mean? Hope that helps:)
I love this. You mention sewing in a little mirror. Do you have any idea where you can get one?
