Felt acorns

Imani was very sick this past week, sick enough to spend 5 full days home with mama, 

during her convalescence we were able to roll little felt balls between our fingers and make acorns!

first we visited this beautiful acorn tree by the park:

carded dyed wool and soapy water, how's it done

They are decorating our dining room now.

Have a great Monday!

Fall wanderings

Although I don't care for winter in the slightest I do love seasons, and everything in between...

Stepping outside my front door on a chilly fall day, our aspen leaves scattered about after a light snow dusting,our pumpkins waiting to be carved,

fills me with fall wonder.

 

Wishing you a lovely weekend

Sometimes....

Sometimes there is no words in my vocabulary to describe the beauty I see in these children.

It makes me proud to be a human being.

Halloween past, and resting on my laurels

Last year I really outdid myself, like, really.

Its fun to take a look back at the neat idea's and creative inspiration that marked the Halloween season for me.

This year my kids will be lucky if they get to be anything at all...

(just kidding kids,  you know i'll think of something!)

Happy tuesday
