This week our focus was on wooly things. We of course love them wooly things! Pelle’s New Suit is one of our favorite books. I think the kids know it by heart. For a little field trip for the kids (ahmm… yeah, it was for the kids not me 😉 ) we visited a not …
Just a reminder… if you are not a fan of Wee Folk Art on Facebook, ya should be! This is the place where Michelle and I get to share some of our favorite crafting from all around the web world. Which brings up the point… have you or the wee ones just made a super project you’d like us to take …
This article was first published at One Generation to Another February 5, 2008. Read through it and on the other side are directions for turning used potpourri tarts and candle stubs into beautiful, new candles. Close your eyes…think of the smell of your elementary school cafeteria…the ocean…a baby’s neck. What about your grandmother’s house, …
Use the Peg People Ghost Pattern to make your own ghostie for your pretend play. The gnome’s lives are rich with stories and folklore, and there has never been a story teller in The Thicket that could weave a tale as well as Axel. As a master storyteller, over the years the job has fallen on him to share …

This week’s theme was The Little Red Hen. Although we did read the book and completed the project we will actually be revisiting this theme again in a few weeks when we get to go on a Flour Mill tour. Instead this week we were able to take a fun field trip to a candy …
Part 1 – Knitted in the Round Doll can be found HERE. Hair, like the face itself, is how you personalize the doll. I chose to use a thick, natural organic yarn, but pick yarns and colors that suit your fancy. Also, I chose a very simple face, with little crescents suggesting eyes and mouth, …
When Pixie opened her gift that held her new baby doll, pure joy filled her face. (And THAT is why I stay up to 1:00 a.m. every night!) The second photo is when the gown went up and she noticed the belly button. No words… but a look for me that said, “Of course my …
I first shared this post on my original blog, One Generation to Another back on October 30, 2007. Sometimes after I’ve wiped down the “stickies” in the kitchen after the grandbabies have been helping me, I like to reread this post. I always smile. I hope it speaks to you, too. One of the greatest gifts my …
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PIXIE! Today is Pixie’s birthday and I just finished her Rainbow Doll… with 3 hours to spare! Actually, I didn’t get a chance to make the bag to hold her beanbags, but I’ll get it finished up for her tomorrow. Here is a sneak peek at all the rainbow goodies in her Rainbow …
