I spent a few days at the cottage with my girl while my husband cleaned up smoke damage at home. If you want to read more about that, you can see our blog for Atlantic Grace . So, we spent some time getting crafty.
First on the agenda was a little leprachaun. We made a game out of it. C held the little puppet and I had to chase her and try to catch the four leaf clover from the puppets hat. If I caught it, I got to ask for a wish. Then we switched and she chased me. It was a lot of fun.
Another day found us making caterpillars out of egg cartons. I think she did remarkably well. She even bent the legs so they could walk better.
Finally, I found myself throwing together a little worry doll using flannel and polar fleece. It was quick and easy and a lot of fun to make. I think I will make more of them. Soon I'll be talked about in crafty magazines as the crazy lady who had to buy a bigger home just to have a room for her worry dolls. Nah, ain't gonna happen. I hate cleaning dust more than anything so I certainly don't need a room for dust collectors. If I can't give it away, I probably won't make it. But I think I can think of a few people who could use a worry doll.
