Wooden box

I found this 38 year old story book
In a thrift shop in poor condition
The images were still ok
So thought I would reclaim them into this
Sweet little wooden box
Perfect for treasures..

Just sold......

Wool Heart Tutorial

TUTORIAL.....
How to make a wool heart....
Find an old wool blanket
Thrift stores have lots of these
Cut out a heart shape pattern on the wool blanket
Blanket stitch around the outside with wool thread..
Add a wool loop to hang

They can hang on door knobs, be given to Aunts
A nice handmade addition to the birthday basket
Simple enough for a child to make

I made these ones this afternoon
