Teagan’s Room Makeover – PART ONE

My youngest daughter’s room has basically been a toy and clothing repository for the past several years.  Before that, since we believe in a family bed, she never had a room of her own.  Now that she’s 8, she’s ready for a full super cool room of her own.  So…  here are a few before [...]

Vegan Taffy

Think vegans can’t have an old fashioned taffy pull?  Think again!  My daughters have been asking to make taffy for quite some time.  Since their grandparents were due for a visit, we planned our taffy making desires around their stay.  While not completely successful, we had a lot of fun making the taffy. We used [...]

How to: Make a Photo Collage Clock

My kids love making letters and numbers with their bodies.  To use their number photographs in an extra fun way, we decided to make collage clocks using 12″ blank clock faces from ClockParts.com.  The parts are great and the directions are fantastic — full of lots of neat ideas! Here is how we made ours: [...]

123 People Photographs

After taking photographs of my daughters as the letters of the alphabet, they wanted to try making numbers, too.  We recently got around to doing this and here are the awesome results (they were taken in Rancho Sahuarita in December 2008).  We’ve made something really exciting with these numbers that I’ll be posting about very [...]

Then and Now: Photographs of My Daughters in 2003 and 2008

From the moment each of my daughters were born, you’ve seldom been able to find me without a camera close by.  A favorite thing for me to do is to take photographs of my second daughter in the same environment and clothing as her sister wore at the same size.  Here are a few photographs [...]

How to: Double Tie-Dye with Super Cool Results

We recently hosted a tie-dyeing party for our local Unschooling group.  Since we’ve tie-dyed a lot over the years, my older daughter wanted to do something a bit different.  We decided to “double dye” a few items. First we dyed the items as usual using Procion dye and directions from the Dharma Trading Company (both [...]

Blinds, Shades, and Curtains, OH MY!

Our current house was brand new when we purchased it nearly three years ago.  With the house came cheap metal blinds and valances (which I actually really love the colors of, so we’ve left them on almost all the windows).  Since the windows were technically covered, we haven’t spent a lot of time talking about [...]
