[aweber listid=5899377 formid=221915929 formtype=webform] I'm not sure that there is anything cuter on earth than a baby chick. So that's what we're going to make today. We promised an amigurumi pattern and this is it - the CUTEST baby chick in an eggshell. The pattern includes instructions for a baby chick, about 4" in height, as well as the top and bottom of an eggshell, which the baby chick will fit in to. It's a sweet little toy and would make the perfect addition to an Easter basket! As with each of our patterns, we will walk you...

We recently posted a blog post and video about How to Make Valentine's Day Pompom Hearts. Although it presents a simple way to make pompoms, I thought I would show another way to make a simple pompom heart. This time, all you're going to need is your hand, some yarn and a pair of scissors. Materials Needed: Medium weight yarn in any color you like (we chose the typical Valentine’s Day colors of red, pink, and white) Scissors A hot glue gun with glue sticks (optional) A stir stick (optional) Happy Handicrafts Video: Simple Valentine's Day POMPOM HEART Craft Idea I wound the yarn around my hand...

As school winds down around a holiday or celebration, my kids can always count on me to have a craft ready. It's one of my favorite ways to connect with the kids, while getting something useful done. This year, my son carried on this tradition by coming up with his own suggestion for a craft for Valentine's Day. He chose a simple crocheted heart bookmark. This bookmark whips up very quickly; I think it would be such a great option as a gift for students, friends, and loved ones, rather than the traditional candy or chocolate. Materials Needed: Crochet Hook Set  Any Medium...

When I was growing up, I remember Valentine's Day always being a big celebration in school. Every kid would bring in a box and put it on their desk, ready for all of the cards they would receive. When the teacher gave the cue, the students would go from table to table distributing their cards. Then we would share heart-shaped cookies and red and pink colored cupcakes. This break from the usual was always so exciting for everyone, but for me - big downer - it was awful. My parents were too poor to afford...

Christmas time holds many special traditions for all of us. A favorite of ours is taking the entire month of December off of our homeschool, so that we have ample time to enjoy each and every moment together. We have always done this - ever since starting to homeschool - and it is truly so precious to me. We pick out cookies to bake, pile up baking in the freezer, plan special meals and go shopping together, wrap gifts, and we've always decorated the tree and house with handmade crafts. This year, we decided to elevate our gift-wrapping and decor...

With Saint Patrick's Day approaching, I wanted to brighten up the house with some fun decorations. I realized, however, that I had absolutely no Saint Patrick's day themed decor at all! So, together with my daughter, we set out to create a simple Saint Patrick's day wreath. We have a set of small doors leading into our homeschool, and we thought it would be the perfect way to add a splash of color to this space - so we actually made two! One for each door. This project is super simple. Most of the materials we...
