This one is for the pre-schoolers out there.
I know with this terrible heat, we have been playing low key indoors; and when its not hot; its usually rainy so we are back indoors. Now that Autumn is on its way, the cooler weather will mean we will be able to spend some more time outside.
There two DIY’s are the perfect homemade alternative to the bought stuff, and just as good.
Handmade Chalk – Oh My Handmade
Handmade Finger Paints – Easy Peasy

I was asked to write an article for a magazine a few weeks back, the story being on Bold and Bright colours. I was having some difficulty getting images to fit the brief and getting the article submitted on time, so I decided to change the direction a little. (That is another story…)
But since the images that I did receive were awesome, I just had to share them with you.

Jenni from Cloth and Thread seems to work magic with some textile cast offs. These little dolls have so much personality you won’t want to keep them for the kids.
