    I am making a Reading Journey for the kids for their summer reading....as they get thru their books, along with the library's special whatnot (which may I say, is not so special this year!) and B&N's passport (also kinda lame but whatever) they will go along this "journey".

    Think timeline-but like a rocket traveling from the sun to Pluto (yes, I included pluto.) They each have a rocket....

    My connundrum is I was gonna put it on a long strip of paper like a wallpaper border-but not sure how to do that...so got the planets, and the rockets....originally was going to have little dots for each book, in between the planets-but if its straight on the wall, I don't know how to put the little dots (or even what to use as markers/dots between the planets)....and am worried about killing the paint in the process.

    Any creative thoughts on how I can do it? (and I totally spelled felt wrong on my last thread....how funny.)

    I think I understand what you are doing. You could use that 3M sticky tape stuff that comes off without leaving any residue and then for the "markers" just use a circle cut out. It would even be cool if you could find some space themed paper in the scrapbooking section of your store.

    Thanks!

    Was considering getting a roll of bulletin board cork and putting that up-then just using those tiny push pins....eh. Gonna be a "thing" I think.....

    Our paint is horrible-they just threw it up before we moved in, and all the walls have this weird texture....and I can't even clean it and it starts to flake off. Hmmmm....
