Anyone need a paper sloyd stamp book? We are moving into our second year of paper sloyd creations from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich, and today we will be creating a stamp book. Now, I'm gong to be perfectly honest - we have no use for a stamp book. We don't use stamps very often, so we just tuck them away in my desk drawer until we need to use them. But they were apparently very popular in the early 1900s, when Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades was written! Stamp books...

Many people find the idea of paper sloyd crafting in their homeschool intimidating. Even as a "crafty" person, I initially found paper sloyd to be too complicated and overwhelming to navigate.

With a few simple supplies and some straightforward instructions, I am going to give you a practical guide to your first year of paper sloyd. It will show you how to easily incorporate paper sloyd into your homeschool curriculum....

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...

Years ago, when I decided to start homeschooling my children, I didn't have many friends or acquaintances who homeschooled. I couldn't pick the brains of other homeschooling moms, and I never had the opportunity to sit down with a cup of coffee to drill them with my endless list of questions. Despite this, we have somehow managed to navigate the elementary, and now pre-teen years of homeschooling with any massive regrets. Homeschooling has been an incredible blessing to our family. That being said, however, it hasn't always been easy. I've made many mistakes along the...

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...
