I Can Do It! Book




Book to teach children how to manage clothes

I was lucky to find a printed material with letters on and used these to make the cover.
I trawled the charity shops, and I found:

  • A linen tablecloth
  • several pretty clothes size 2 years.
Methos
I zig zagged the clothes onto the sheet and made pages for the book
For the cover I made a front and a back and inserted mount board to stiffen it.

Doll family for Doll's House

These little figures are made from pipe cleaners.

Use a bead for the head and paint on hair and face.  ( Use a pipe cleaner and some oasis to hold them in position as you paint.)

Fold a long pipe cleaner in half and put folded end into the bead head. Twist for body and use smaller beads for feet.
Insert a smaller piece of pipecleaner for arms.

Use smaller pipe cleaners for children.

Dress with odd scraps of fabric.
