We are back and mostly ready to roll up the old shirt sleeves and get to work. Give us a few days to reacclimate, as it were, and we’ll be good to go. In the meantime… here’s the Little Lady. (We just figured it out… she is 9 months old, I’ve seen her 7 times although …
It’s summer… time for camping under the moon and stars. Whether you throw a sleeping bag on the grass in the backyard or trek into the wilderness, there is nothing like lying on your back, on a clear night, and looking up at the wondrous night sky. Naturally, our gnomes also enjoy star gazing. Here are …
Wander back a few days and read the first couple of paragraphs of the post I had on reusing craft designs. Here, is yet another way to use our little gnome. Follow the basic directions there except use the pattern found HERE. The biggest difference, is you will be placing the pattern on a fold. When you fold the …
I was working on project (which I will share later in the week) and I needed a moon and stars applique. I was rather surprised I had never designed one for Wee Folk Art, but since I needed to design one now, I made one up as an applique block. Designed to fit our standard 6" x 6" …
Happy 235th birthday, USA! We hope everyone has a “blast” celebrating the day. To help, we’ve designed a Firecracker Applique Block! As always, it was designed to fit a 6″ x 6″ block but it can be enlarged or reduced to meet your needs. The pattern can be found HERE. Enjoy! https://www.weefolkart.com Copyright © Wee …
Anyone who knows me well, knows I NEVER make “just enough” food for dinner. When I make chicken soup, you would think I planned to feed the villagers… and, in fact, sometimes I do 🙂 But here is my philosophy… it really doesn’t take that much more time to make a pot of soup for …
EDIT: This giveaway is now closed. The winner can be found HERE. Several weeks ago, when I was wandering the aisles of Etsy, I stumbled upon a new shop that I feel in love with. It was Jupiter's Child. On Facebook, I shared a beautiful Waldorf Inspired Wooden tree. I thought it would look incredible on a nature table. …
With the 4th of July just days away, here in the USA, many streets and buildings proudly display our flag and many flag based decorations. Today we are sharing our version of the flag… an applique with lots of "heart" for our nation 🙂 My plan was to turn this into a wooden plaque to hang …
The other day I shared our latest gnomes… the Old World Wooden Gnomes. In the past we’ve made Peg Gnomes, Knit Gnomes, Sewn Baby Gnome Dolls, and Michelle even designed Gnome Pillow Panels that you can buy from Spoonflower to sew and stuff. So, it only seems natural that we would eventually have gotten around to making wooden gnomes 🙂 NOTE: For general instructions on how to …

Marie's work is so soft and peaceful, that it would be a joy to own anything she makes 🙂 So, of course, we would like to thank Marie for her talents and generosity. And now… the winner is… Submitted by This Cosy Life (Julie) …
EDIT: This contest is now closed. Thanks to everyone that entered 🙂 Several weeks ago, the very dear Marie, from Soft Earth's World Blog, was a guest blogger on Wee Folk Art. She shared the tutorial on making the Blue Bird of Happiness. It was a wonderful project and Michelle and I were so grateful …
“When I was a kid”… boy, that sounds like something your dad would start out a conversation with when he was trying to make a point of “how easy you kids got it today”, right? Let’s try this again… “back when I was a child” (sounds better, right?) all we needed was a piece of chalk, a ball, and a jump …
