Some are boring – I need to mend our futon cover and [...] Share I adore fall, the colors, the textures and the change of season is so fun and educational for kids. I think it’s a wonderful opportunity to craft with your kids, so here are 10 wonderful ideas: 1. I ran across this fantastic tutorial for fleece scarves for kids.

Not sure why, I woke up in a feisty mood this morning! I’m pondering something tho. As I posted the other day I had a good surf around the net, being in complete awe of some of the art/craft that people do. Amazing. However, in running Helping [...] Share I’m in the middle of a little blog reconstruction – most notably because I’m launching a new site.
