Crafty heaven

I got very excited about this gem I found this morning...

Kids Craft Weekly is a free newsletter full of inspiring craft ideas and fun activities for young kids.

Published by Sydney based mother & editor, Amber who has young children, the craft ideas are "Montessori-influenced".

I have dozens of DIY/crafty books but none as inspiring as this weekly newsletter and I think just that fact that it will appear in my inbox once a week for inspiration is wonderful.

You can sign up online at http://kidscraftweekly.com/.

This is the 1st project my daughter has picked to try .... from issue 23 - Jungle

Let's get Crafty

I have just came across two fabulous books that look like a "must have" for any organic mum who can knit, sew or felt.
Nature Babies: Natural Knits and Organic Crafts for Moms, Babies, and a Better World - from Amazon.com. These craft ideas incorporate the reduce, reuse, recycle principle. Love the sound of that.

Natural Knits for Babies and Moms: Beautiful Designs Using Organic Yarns - from Amazon.com. Yum!
