Partial to pears in a tree?
whimsy wands whipped and ready for magic
During this holiday season bringing light into our darkest days of winter, we remind ourselves that it is the giver who makes the gift precious. “Not what we give, but what we share, for the gift without the giver is bare.”
–James Russell Lowell, 1819–91

Thank you for showing us your work. The little mushroom village is adorable. This craft work of creating toys and other treats is a great way of teaching your children the value of things. Transforming bits of material into decorations and playthings is a magical process and an experience young kids will take with them the rest of their lives.
Thank you for your comments Booby and Amber, I'll post some more pics as the items become complete. My children do indeed watch carefully and with delight, as they try to guess what may appear next! They are the inspiration for many items as they share stories or think up great ideas from their rich imaginations!
