Felt Pillows

 

We just made these woven felt pillows at the studio this afternoon.

Felt is a great material to work with, easily cut into narrow strips for weaving.

 The weaving can be tricky for the children, 

but once mastered is something they can always do.

I love these colorful treasures.

 It's delicate, beautiful and brilliant.

Sealed with a Kiss

Yesterday we glued, sprinkled,

                   colored, scissored,

                   folded and painted 

               V A L E N T I N E S

                  to our heart's content.

          I was sad to see my friends go,

        yet after the glitter had settled,

I noticed a twinkling trail of sparkle out the studio door.

It's a beautiful

clear icy blue

This is the best project for a 

stretch of really cold weather.. 

which we haven't had YET.

But  boy, if we do.. we'll be trying this one out. 

 

These 4 year old's had a great time with it,

Call Your Girlfriend

I don't know about you,
but every single time 
I watch these girls
I really wish
I was standing in that kitchen.

Perfecto.

Beehive window

Sam lined these gems up in our front window after Thursday's class.
She knew that I would love love love it.
Rows of foil hearts with tissue and gobs of glitter, 
small painted wooden hearts, 
and wood bases for clay faces.
