At Wee Folk Art we delight in the change of seasons. We welcome the cool weather that autumns brings, enjoy mugs of spiced apple cider, and pots of steaming soup. Throughout the fall we find ourselves crafting more fervently and baking more frequently. Spend some time with us this fall crafting, baking, and enjoying the harvest. Knit our fall leaves scarf, bake some pumpkin muffins, craft a felt leaves garland with the kids, or sew a autumn tree banner. Enjoy our fall crafts collection!
