Here's a fun little picnic centerpiece idea that's just so simple and sweet. Take some recycled tin cans and tie strips of torn sheets or woven rags of any kind. Got it? These would be great little party favors, or centerpieces for any casual outdoor gathering. Plus you could use some on the buffet to…

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! Last week’s party was just a bit smaller than usual, but still very much an international gathering, with contributors from Portugal, The Netherlands, Romania, Hungary, Turkey, Slovenia, Italy, Sweden, The United States, The UK, Australia, Jakarta (yippee, a new one!) Singapore, India and maybe more! And thanks to the talent…

Last week I made a merry-g0-round birthday cake for my seven year old with just a few simple supplies, and now you can make one too!  Now of course one could get really fancy with this theme, but quite honestly sometimes simplicity takes the cake!

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! As you read this, I am NOT on the computer, this post was scheduled to appear automatically at this time, while I on the other hand am celebrating the wonderful Jewish holiday of Shavous with family and friends. Two whole days of celebrations, rest, relaxation, a little bit of cheesecake…

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday!

Gotta run, the crafting bug has finally caught up with me and well, there’s some serious crafting…

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! I think I’ll just type out the list of countries that contributed, because I’m in need of just a little armchair traveling at the moment.

Last week we had contributors from Spain, Portugal, The United States, Macedonia, Singapore, Guatemala, South Africa, The United Kingdom, Hungary, Australia, The Netherlands, Israel, Romania and maybe more! As always it is such a pleasure to connect with you all! I still haven’t quite gotten back into the crafting mode…

Soldiers pray at the Western Wall, source here. Today is Yom HaZikaron, Israeli Memorial Day for our fallen soldiers. At every cemetary in the country families and friends and communities at large gather to mourn and to remember their children who gave their lives in the protection of our tiny country. A tiny country surrounded…

This spring due possibly to the large amount of rain we had this winter, the blooming trees have been particularly spectacular, and one in particular kept catching my eye during our week of outings during the Passover holiday. And since it was so particularly beautiful, I was very curious to know what kind of tree…
