Beeswax fun, a little Lavender doll and felt purses


In our warm climate our colorful Stockmar beeswax is always soft and pliable for creative modeling. It is such a wonderful way for our children to communicate their thoughts. They love to create forms exposing memories about a story we've read during the week or a reflection of their day.



It's the best way to soothe energetic children...



My husband is very creative with his hands, he's better at modeling than I am, here he's making a bunny.



This week my little boy has enjoyed listening to Chicken Licken, so I made some little beeswax birds to bring the story alive.



Another little doll I made, a lavender baby.  For some reason I can't get the head and body in proportion.  I will keep practicing.  The boys love her, she's already packed, ready to go on our trip.



These little purses where made from felt. It was Sasha's first time doing blanket stitch and I think he did pretty well.  His purse is on the right.  Sania (my youngest) needle felted his flower on the left and I did the blanket stitch for him.  It holds all their little treasures...
