Busy Hands Jan 12-18, 2015
Not feeling well when I put together last weeks entry, I didn't put in the "Busy Hands" portion until days later. I have since corrected that post to include the Busy Hands, but thought I'd post this separately. I'm never sure how to do this blog--I have more than one goal! One part of me wants to give other homeschoolers some book reviews and suggestions for add-in's to their Sonlight cores, and the other part of me wants to share what fun things we are making as we go along. I don't know if the core material/book material should be listed separately from the Busy Hands?!

| This scarf/cowl/infinity scarf that I made for Dd was completed a few weeks ago, but I don't think I had posted it yet so I fit it in here. |
 |
| I've mailed Aunt Ruth her birthday bird! I was tardy, but good intentioned! |
 |
| Dd has since un-raveled this |
 |
| Dd made ME this hat!!! I LOVE it! |
 |
| I sewed the ridge around my forehead tighter so it would stay on better and not be loose...worked so well! |
 |
| I am making this knitted scarf to match with the hat she made me. |
 |
| Dd made a sheath for her new swords--the other sheath isn't decorated yet, just the case made. |
 |
| Dd wanted two T-shirts for Christmas; one purple shirt with "Camp Jupiter" on it, and an orange one that said "Camp Half-Blood"...well, she didn't get those new fancy shirts, so she made her own with old T-shirts she already owned. We just had to buy the fabric paint. |
 |
| She bought "Glow-In-The-Dark" paint and painted that on top of the fabric paint so the image would glow! She made her own stencils on card stock to do each shirt. |
|
|
 |
| Scarf that she is working on..or a "muffler?" |
 |
| She made a stuffed animal out of duct tape--she finished this two weeks ago. |
 |
| Dh- hubby was so impressed with the hat Dd made me, he asked for one to be made for HIM! |
 |
| This is the camo poncho Dd is making for herself |
 |
| This is a necklace she made |
 |
| This is the pencil box she covered with duct tape, and then wrote over the WHOLE thing with her favorite quotes from books she loves. |
