Today we will continue our paper sloyd series, by creating a paper sloyd key tag. Creating paper sloyd models is something that I started with my children several months ago, and it has turned into something that we really, really enjoy. For YEARS I put it off, thinking it was so complicated, and really didn't seem to have a great purpose. We are now starting our second year of paper sloyd, and I have a very different opinion of it! The second year of paper sloyd contains more complex models, and instead of using paper and...

Last week, in our paper sloyd video series, we made a paper sloyd book cover. Today, we are making Project 13 from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades. This project is the second half of the paper sloyd book cover - we will be making paper sloyd book sheets, otherwise known as pages. After all, you can't have a book without book sheets! Creating paper sloyd book sheets, and putting them into our book cover has probably been our favorite paper sloyd project so far! Once you are able to make one of these book, you...

Several years ago, my children and I had the pleasure of participating in a local Charlotte Mason Co-op. One of the group's handicrafts for a term was to create a leather journal, doing the book binding ourselves. While this would normally seem unbelievably overwhelming to me, the women in this co-op somehow made it so simple and enjoyable. It was this project that convinced me to tackle handicrafts of all kinds with confidence that with a little work and research, we can do anything! I was seriously so amazed at these young kids, able to create...

Our next paper sloyd project is just in time for the upcoming Halloween season! It is Project #11 from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich.

I hope that you've been following our paper sloyd series. My children and I have been working through the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. We are making videos of each project and posting them here and on YouTube under the name Happy Handicrafts. This week, for Project #10, we learned how to create a paper sloyd fan. We initially thought that this project would be quite simple, but it proved to be the most challenging yet. Although the instructions and diagram were not difficult, we found that accuracy and attention to detail...

We are excited to share our latest Happy Handicrafts video with you! Our most recent project from our Paper Sloyd series is a pencil box. This series is perfect for any homeschool mom who wants to give her children the broad feast of education, but feels that she cannot teach arts and crafts. My children and I created this video series for those homeschool moms who don't feel like they are crafty, are short on time, or could just use a little downtime while teaching another student. All you need is Happy Handicrafts - we are...
