Today we will be creating a paper sloyd handkerchief box, such as would have been used in the early 1900s. This is project #7 from the second year, in the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. This is a cute little box with an attached lid that would probably hold 1-2 handkerchiefs. In this century, since we now consider handkerchiefs unsanitary, we would probably use this box for Kleenex or a small collection of some sort. We found this model to be a little more difficult because the instructions were not as clear...

It's a great day to do some sloyd! I hope you are enjoying our paper sloyd series as much as myself and my kids! Today we will be making a triangular catch-all. It is the third model, from the second year, in the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. This was a fun project to do because it was a little different than our usual four-sided projects. Cardboard Sloyd Since our last project, I've been doing more research on cardboard sloyd. Cardboard sloyd is a natural progression in skill and materials from...

For the past several months, in our homeschool, we've been working on paper sloyd. Sloyd is an important part of a Charlotte Mason education, yet we had neglected it in our early years of learning. However, once we dug deeper and learned more about it, we began to take it more seriously, and it became a subject that we thoroughly enjoyed. As we gained skill and expertise in paper sloyd, I began to think of the next step. Sloyd is a progressive subject, and paper sloyd is only the beginning. So what comes after 2-3...

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...

In our last blog post, How to Create a Paper Sloyd Bookmark, we showed our most recent Happy Handicraft video in our paper sloyd series. It was a very simple way to create a paper sloyd bookmark. I don't know about you, but in our homeschool, we read a lot of books, and we are always in need of bookmarks. These paper sloyd bookmarks are a lot nicer than the scrap paper I normally grab to save my place in a book! Or the piece of random plastic that I found my daughter using as a bookmark! We really enjoyed making these...

Have you been following along on our adventures? We've been working through the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. We've even created a YouTube channel, Happy Handicrafts, to record our progress, and we hope you can come and create with us! This week, we are working Project Number 7, which is how to create a paper sloyd bookmark or book corner. It's a fairly simple project, and one even the younger kids can enjoy. Paper sloyd isn't just simple origami. It has a much deeper purpose, which we delve into in...
