Waldorf inspired Dolls in progress

                           Dolls Dolls Dolls!

I have been working on my dolls. I plan on selling these on Etsy. I am so excited about them. My wonderful husband went grocery shopping with 4 of the 5 kids last night so I could work on them. I named the red head Autumn, because that's what she reminds me of, the Blond has no name as of yet, but she will. I just wanted to share my progress. They are that beautiful "Waldorf" style. I read somewhere that Waldorf just adopted from old German style doll making. I will have to look more into that. Making the head is defiantly part of the fun. But my favorite part is when I start adding hair, it brings the doll to life.
Anyway, tell me what you think. Just leave a comment. :)


Also I'd like to know if anyone would be interested in a tutorial or pattern for it? I would love to share

sigh

Wow, So I intended to post all sorts of stuff here and somehow combine these posts with my other two very small blogs, but...I got pregnant! Yep we are having our 5th baby in January. I have been asking my husband for a new camera since mine wasn't what I wanted. I am still waiting on that, with all our expenses lately, it may be a long time away yet. I really hope I can start working on this soon the way i had planned to. who knows maybe on the weekends when we arn't in school (homeschooling all 4, even the babies) or after they are in bed. Other great moms find the time to share their creations through their amazing blogs! I know I can too, just got to figure out how. lol sigh, time to get ready for the busy busy day ahead.

Boys belt

Boys belt...with a buckle.     Its really simple to make this belt. The part that makes it great for younger boys, like my three year old, is that it is easy for them to take on or off. I had made my boys D ring belts but they had a hard time getting them off when it was time to potty. Getting them on was a hassle for them too. So this time I thought about easy solutions. So first measure the length you want and opening size of your buckle. Then cut long strips of the fabric you want to use. My buckle opening was 1 inch. So I cut my fabric about 1 and a half inches wide and about 26 inches long. then I Serge the long sides. After that I used a safety pin to turn it right side out. Then I folded in the ends and stitched all the way around. Then you sew one end onto your buckle and lace the other end through the other buckle piece. Easy Peasy! I got the buckle pieces from Joann. But I am sure you can get them at any fabric craft store. Have a great day! Do...

Water Density Experiment

                 Water Density Experiment                                                            Homeschooling is such a fun way to learn. There is so much freedom in how far we can take  an experiment or how long we can work on it. The other day my husband started to explain to our kids why oil doesn't mix with water. So today we experimented with water density. There are different versions of this experiment and this is how we did ours.   Things needed : Oil, water, salt, sugar, food coloring, clear glasses or jars,measuring cup. Here's what we did: Step one: Fill three clear jars half way each with warm water. ( Helps the salt and sugar dissolve)  Pour 1/2 cup of salt in the first jar and stir it to mix. Pour 1/2 cup of sugar in the second jar and stir to...
