the shoemakers




I bought a new book last week 'Green Crafts for Children' by Emma Hardy. The projects are not only appealing to children, but are irresistible to the creatively inclined adult. The book is filled with things like the shoes above, walnut babies, salt dough tea sets and felt sushi roll necklaces.
Now, did I take this particular craft session with Hugo a little too seriously? Maybe. Hugo and I were surfing a wave of creativity and we followed it to the end (which incidentally, was a nap). Feeling pretty fancy we now get to walk around the house just looking at our feet.
