Its that time of year again (Halloween! Thanksgiving! Christmas! WHEW!!!) and I'm dusting off the inch layer of dust on my craft table (metaphorically and literally)! After a year of celibacy, my fingers are itching to create my beautiful, quality, natural wooden toys, in other words... enchanting toys for charming children!
I've been busy enjoying my newest baby girl all summer...she is just cute as a button, and we're like THIS *twists fingers*. I've never had a baby be so much of a Momma's girl and I LOVE IT. She is >just< starting to crawl so I am anticipating a bit more "me" time (ie, crafting time!) in the near future, as she'll be busy pulling all the books off the bookcases, eating dust bunnies from under the couch, smearing my make-up into the carpet, terrorizing Gretel- our Miniature Schnauzer, and decorating the bathroom in toilet paper...
Not that my other children ever did any of that. Oh no, the other ones did much, MUCH worse. (Ever been greeted by a 2 year old covered head-to-toe in black paint during the wee hours of morning?? I HAVE. Or how about walking in on that same child during an early "breakfast" of butter, cold hot dogs and mayonnaise that he artfully displayed on the fridge? YUM.) Seriously, its a wonder that I ever had more kids after that one, my oldest boy. He was a stinker!!!! Hopefully this one will be more like her older sister.
Back to crafting. I'm bringing back some of the favorites from last season, the "Learn-to-Sew" Lacing Cards and the Cube Puzzles, but with different designs that have yet to be revealed! I'll also be adding some new items...Memory Games! Dominos! Yo-yos! Aaaaaand hopefully I'll get around to doing a set of ABC Blocks like I planned last year.
For those who have been pining over the Princess Magnetic Sets all year...I haven't decided whether or not to bring those back. They had a couple technical difficulties last season, and I'm not sure I can perfect them to my standards. The main concern is that printable magnetic paper is just not very strong when you cut it up into small pieces. I have been looking into super thin, teeny, tiny magnets...but it has yet to be determined if it will be cost effective.
I'm also going to be devoting more time to this blog, and am planning on a giveaway or two. So share the love...and keep Pinwheels & Posies in mind as you get out your holiday shopping lists! :D
