One of my favorite things to do when I was a little girl was to lie on my back and look up at the sky. When I laid very still and looked up, I thought I could actually feel the world twirling. It really didn’t matter if it was day or night, I loved the …
THE APPLE TREE by Kimara Wise My garden’s full of many plants, I have a favorite, I can’t recant. The apple tree, above the rest, Brings greatest pleasure, I must attest. As a child I’d hide away, Among its branches I would sway. With book in hand my thoughts could soar, From castle walls to …
We started Wee Folk Art back in July of 2008, so we are celebrating 7 years of sharing our passions here on the blog. Every once in a while I love to flip around through our early blogs. In the beginning we were trying so hard to find our footing. Over the first couple of …
Oh, to sing the praises of the apple. Not only are they yummy to eat and a healthy choice for a snack, they are down right cute! My very first research paper back in third grade was on The Apple. What can I say… apples and I go way back! Although not traditionally considered …
I can remember as a young girl spending hours in the summer creating outfits for a family of trolls I had. I would loved to have been given the supplies to make a family of fairies! After I created these winged creatures, I was excited to have the grandbabies over and pull out the supplies and …
Being raised with three brothers and no sisters there wasn’t much room in my life for fussy dresses. I needed to run, jump, hang upside down from monkey bars and generally do things that dresses tended to balk at.

There is an expression “easy as pie”. I don’t get that. To me pie making is NOT easy. Trying to get a nice crumbly crust, rolling out a dough just right, then baking the pie so the fruit and crust is done without over baking the outer edge. “Easy as pie”? I think not! On …
After the past chaotic and life changing few weeks, I think I am finally ready to roll up my sleeves and get back to work! I have a lot of catching up to do. For example… we completed this drawing lesson on May 29 and I am finally posting it! Life happens, right? Anyway… as …

Happy July! Oh, when I think of summer I can’t help but think of strawberries, blueberries, peaches, raspberries, watermelons and an assortment of other tasty fruits. Yum! We eat them right off the bushes, sugared on shortcakes, or swirling in smoothies. It’s not surprising that for our summer appliques, fruits receive a starring role. So, …
ODE TO SPINNING SPIDERS by Kimara Wise There are those that fear the spider, Filling them with dread, But I must sing their praises, For their skills at spinning thread. I could sit for hours With my wheel in front of me, And never spin a silken strand, As fine as theirs will be. …
Sources for all the photos shared can be found HERE. Putting together these composites has become a new passion of mine. Why share just 1 thing when I can share several… or in this case 20! I didn’t plan on sharing 20 hair accessories. For some reason I usually like to share 11. What can I …
