And the lastest project:

A miniature house

We used blocks and pieces of sponges, covered with scraps of cloth.

The book we got the idea from (The Kids' Book of Incredibly FUn Crafts): suggested corks, cardboards, shoulder pads for pillows, empty film containers, lids for tops of tables, small yogurt containers, matchboxes.

We used a small playdoh container for the sink. We have not really finished it precisely because, we had trouble finding things. I think our box was not big enough...

I am glad to know I am not the only one with a house like that.

Reformation Day Giveaway

We are approaching October 31, which is an important date for all protestants.
