Our project today is a decorative paper sloyd whisk-broom holder. It is intended to hang on the wall, holding your whisk-broom. It is the 7th model from the 3rd year from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. The project is divided into two parts, the back of the holder and the pocket. Make sure you have enough paper for both! We found that a thick piece of 12" x 12" scrapbook paper was the perfect size. If you don't have a 12" x 12" piece, you could always use...

Each of our paper sloyd projects present us with a new challenge. This is wonderful because when we are challenged, we know that we are learning something new. It's not to make us frustrated or aggravated, it's an opportunity to become better than we were before, which is a lesson onto itself! As you will see, this paper sloyd pin cube was an exercise in accuracy and precision. This is the 6th model from the 3rd year from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades. Once again, it probably doesn't have great use for us...

This week’s paper sloyd hexagonal tray project presented a bit of a challenge. It is the 5th model from the 3rd year from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Edna Anne Rich. The 3rd year started easily enough but has quickly escalated, introducing us to some new tools and skills. Learning these new skills is exciting and rewarding, but it does take some time and occasionally some frustration to work through. The third year of paper sloyd has introduced the use of a compass. We have found that a compass can possibly be challenging for...

If you were waiting for the third year of paper sloyd to get a little more difficult, it just did! Our next paper sloyd project is the 4th model in the 3rd year from the book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. This model, a paper sloyd postal-card holder, gave us a struggle! We found the directions unclear and confusing. The good new is, we figured it out and we are sharing it with you, so you can enjoy the process without undue struggle. Materials Needed The book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades...

Today's project is a paper sloyd conical flower holder. I imagine that this little project would be lovely in the spring when wild flowers are abundant here in Texas. Unfortunately, we are currently in the middle of winter, which features brown grass and dormant bushes. However, this is a quick and simple craft that is perfect for those cold, rainy days when it's not so pleasant to be outside. This is Project #3 from the 3rd year of paper sloyd, from the book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. It is a similar...

I am always excited to learn a new skill. Today, as we create our next paper sloyd creation, a pyramidal catch-all, our main tool is going to be a compass, instead of the ruler. This project (#2 from Year 3) introduces to us a new way to create a shape. In our video, you are going to see our first time, learning to manage and manipulate a compass. It's a little awkward for a child, it's another skill that we will need to practice. Materials Needed The book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich A compass An Exacto...
