Art Day – Perspective
Today we were focusing on perspective which… um… helped us all keep perspective. Just about 😆 As days go, it was one of the ones which we all found a bit tough, due to tiredness, but as it happened, some really good artwork appeared, which goes to show it is worth persevering 🙂 We started […]
Two Art Days, a Latin Day & a Dog
Help! I’m all behind on home ed blogging again. We’ve been busy and active and out and about but with one thing and another, I’ve not caught up. By the end of this week there will have been more busy-ness, so I better try and whisk through. We’ve done two full art days to catch […]
How to make a Felted Kindle Bag
This was my first go at felting a knitted item and it has turned out so amazingly well that I thought I had better write down what I did or I’ll forget how I did it. I love the finished item so much that I am pretty sure I’ll be making more of them (stand […]
Fran & Merry on Etsy

What old ones have you let go of, and why? For the Sleep is for the Weak Writing Workshop. I’m 7 and reciting Old Testament, New Testament […]
5 things I would like my children to know about me
Written for the Friday Club Carnival. Whist. There is a thing. What 5 things would I like my children to know about me? I can think of lots of things I would prefer them NOT to know about me, though I can see there will be a time when I’ll have to tell them those […]
Books for Kids (2)
One of the best things about the ‘random post’ widget at the bottom of each blog post is that I’m getting to revisit old blog posts that I never read any more. I’ve forgotten so many of them; there was a time, when the blog was only a few years old, when I still pretty […]
Polymer Clay Book Suggestions
As you know, I love to make Fimo Models. I’m busy resurrecting my lovely Fimo-Ideas blog and while I’m at it, I’ve done a set of book suggestions for using Fimo & Sculpey. There is an aStore and a list, in rough order of simplicity to use, of my favourite polymer clay books. I expect […]
