Although before starting i feel compelled to add a picture of my John Lennon style Santa 😆 I will have to change his eyes 😆 Do feel i should add extra pictures of the stained glass windows (with guest appearance of one done by visiting Uncle Rich, who insisted on Aussies style red soil instead […]
Felted Christingle Orange & More
Lots of easy crafts this week. #5We’ve done Shrinkies already but here are pictures of the finished articles. #6Then we moved on to colouring in Stained Glass windows, with some debate about where to hang them for best effect and what pens were going to work best and why. Some discussion on colour densities, light, […]
Christmas Wednesday Group.
Today, this poor deprived group of hidden and potentially uneducated children did the following:- Sang Christmas carols in Latin, making educated logical guesses on what different words were before each one. Who knew the Romans sang Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, eh?! Did group music theory while eating carrot sticks, shouting out the note values […]
Making Christmas Shrinkles & Felt Stockings
Each of the girls made, or mostly made, one of theses. Not as easy as it looks as the snowflake needed sewing on and there was some route planning involved in doing that (reminded me of some maths we used to do in school involving nodes and the crossing over of lines but it never […]
Today's Educational Topic & Felted Christmas Shapes
Decent photos of the finished articles can be added tomorrow as the light isn’t good enough to take them decently but here is my felted snowman and Fran’s felted present. Christmas Craft #3 was these cute little kits from Tesco, which would have been too expensive to do en masse, had i not caught them […]
Christmas Fimo Models & Needle Felting
On Monday we went to Zoe’s for the day; Zoe had got ready this lovely Christmas Pudding recipe for us to make and orchestrated 2 bowlfuls of pudding. Hopefully we can make cakes next week too 🙂 While she did that i got shifts of girls doing felting and everyone made something or started on […]
Club Penguin in Hama Beads
Or at least a Puffle on a surf board. Designed by Maddy, aged 9. Edited 2011 – these seem to be fairly popular. We’ve just got a copy of the Hama Designer CD again (thank you to my lovely friend Julie) and so I’ve drawn up the pictures. These are just for fun, no profit […]
Easter Egg Hama Bead Designs
Despite being slightly hampered by the fact that my CD Hama Designer has ceased to work (and my spare which is actually Sarah’s is with Jacqui who converts things for me!) and the CD is out of date anyway and doesn’t have the boards, i have produced this page on the brand new BeadMerrily which […]
Sometimes the roots are too big.
Glancing through that Birth Trauma site last night was a bit of a revelation. After Fran, i knew i was in a bad way, but i had very little access to information and very unsupportive health professionals. I knew i was in trouble but i didn’t know where to start. By this stage, i had […]
