When I was a little girl, I LOVED strawberries. I loved the way they tasted, I love the way they looked, and I loved that inevitable trickle of juice that meandered down my chin when I took a bite, only to be cleared away with a swipe of my tongue. Strawberries were sun and summer …

Fairy House Kit
In preparation of this weekend’s give-away sponsored by Bella Luna Toys, we received a Fairy House Kit to try out and review. It is an all inclusive (you just provide a screw driver and your imagination) kit designed by Pied Piper Crafts that even includes a hot glue gun. Although Gammy (aka Kimara) has an …
Unfinished Projects
I am in the process of making my way through our entire blog. This summer we are celebrating our 6th Anniversary, and there are a LOT of old blog posts to go through. Because we are a crafting blog, with tutorials throughout, posts shared 6 years ago are just as relevant today. With Wee Folk …
Crazy Quilt Post Earring Storage Hoop
Organize your jewelry by making your own Crazy Quilt Post Earring Storage Hoop. It is both a beautiful and practical way to display and store your favorite earrings. Since the completion of our new master suite, I have something I’ve never had before.. a place for everything. With the addition of our walk-in-closet, I can now …
Flutter Sleeve Tops
It has been quite awhile since I’ve done much apparel sewing. When my kids were little they were quite happy in mom made skirts and shorts, but as they have gotten a bit older, they have also gotten a bit pickier. Although my girls both still love a twirly skirt, they now prefer knit bottoms …
Slacklining
Every summer, Tim and I like to add something new to the yard for the wee ones. One year it was a dragon swing, another year log balance beams. There have been pools and play structures, fairy gardens and water fountains. This year we bought a Slackline from Bella Luna Toys. What, you may ask, …
Needle Felted Dragonfly
I know I’ve shared many times my love and fascination with the dragonfly. They are my “fairy bugs” flitting about in my gardens, shy, yet not elusive. Sometimes, I catch them out of the corner of my eye, but when I turn, they are gone. Other times, they allow me to sit among them, almost …

Artterro Eco Art Kits :: Bubble Wands
I was thrilled when Michelle called me and told me Artterro Eco Art Kits wanted to be a Wee Folk Art sponsor. If you’ve never heard of them, you’re in for a real treat. Tomorrow, Artterro will be hosting a give-away here at Wee Folk Art. So, we thought it would be a colossally awesome idea, to introduce you to 1 …
Applique Block :: Bunny
So, it’s like this. I love bunnies. I love them when are all tiny and cute and I love them when they are all grown up. We even invite rabbits into our yard. In our greenbelts, we keep piles of brush mounded high. Makes a perfect place for rabbits to raise their young. At dawn …
Homemade Beeswax Seashell Candles
Follow our directions to make your own homemade beeswax seashell candles. They nicely complement a beach theme decor. While learning about the South Eastern Coastal states, we made these cute Seashell Beeswax Candles. Although the kids were able to some of the work, for safety reasons this project requires parental supervision and assistance. Homemade Beeswax …
Twig Stars
It’s the first day of summer vacation. What to do, what to do? Best answer… EVERYTHING. Michelle and the wee ones came over yesterday after lunch, and a couple of their friends soon joined. There was plenty of running around outside, a very quick dip in the freezing cold pool, followed by a very long dip …
