Some reflections

I was thinking for a while about some reflections on classes we already had.

I have a feeling of love and gratitude for the material that cooperates so beautifully with us, for our hands – bigger and tinier that works so nimbly with that material, and for our creations – in some way alive and breathing the air of fall and imagination.

Our first class pine cone and felt gnomes with thistle beards, wool and corn fairies, burdock hedgehogs, rose hips ants and all the different creatures without names living silently in our nature corners and shelves. Our second class cattails baskets, ducks, mats, ninjas, horses and ropes finding place in our toys, jewelry and maybe Halloween costume corners. This is our way to invite nature to our homes and hearts and to keep that warmth during long winter months.
