I love the addition of the bunny ears to your sweet dolls.
Right now I'm thinking about flowers. I want to make felt flowers, fabric flowers, embroidered flowers, ALL the flowers.
Crafty
Sometimes I wish I could just ignore everything and spend the entire day sewing. No cooking, no laundry, no dishes. Just cutting, sewing, and creating. Because after a day like that? I'm a better person. More centered, more patient, more present. A solid day devoted to creating doe...
I'd love to have copy of this book.
Book Giveaway: Making Peg Dolls and More
If you've been around here for long you know we're a bit peg dog obsessed over here. As in: I dare you to type "peg people" in the search bar to the right and see just how many posts come up. On second thought, don't. It a little embarrassing how many posts on the subjects I've...
I pinned to Pinterst!

I think we really need some natural face paint. It has endless possibilities.

... tell me a story: around the year giveaway!
This time of year, when seasonal changes are in full swing, always brings me back to an old favorite. Drifting between black and white hand-drawn sketches, and vivid full color illustrations, all the elements that bring a year together are sweetly displayed in one beautiful, heirloom book....
What a sweet memory. Thanks for sharing. That put a big smile on my face.
Giveaway! Lupine's perfume (plus free LuSa shipping)
Lupine and I spent yesterday at LuSa Organics making two dozen essential oil perfumes. It was where playing met unschooling met family business met her passion for all things floral. It's life, our way. And it might have been the sweetest part of my whole week. The recipe ...

I just signed my daughter up for four weeks of farm camp this Summer so she can spend time with the goats she loves. :)
Goat love
We spent the weekend in Minneapolis peddling soap and meeting a few of you lovely people at No Coast Craft. Good times were had and we've only just rolled into town to snuggle our pets, unpack our bags, and shovel some snow. (Snow!) It was cold and snowy in the Cities, too. While in Minneapolis ...
I know a certain little girl who would love the Wooden Treasure Chest. :)

I too find it hard to forgive myself. Thanks for the reminder that is necessary self-care and that I'm not alone in the struggle.
Reaching for forgivness.
Like you I am human. Like you I am flawed. Like you I have ideals. Of who I am and how I live. And sometimes I achieve those ideals. And other times I don't. As a mother I strive for peace. I listen. I hear. I reach for compassion. Understanding. Love. I empower. I allow. And today I...
We love your products. LOVE them.
LüSa Organics Giveaway!
It's been a while since I've hosted a LüSa Organics giveaway, so I thought today would be a great day to share one with you. I'm celebrating the milestone of 3000 Clean Facebook fans. Because for me - way out here on this quiet country road - that sure feels like a lot of peop...
Looks like it was a wonderful day. I love watching Larry Dalton play bass. It makes me giddy.

Very cool.
Blueberry picking with my favorite sister.
My very favorite sister came to visit this weekend. (Okay, okay. You're right. She's also my only sister. No need to nitpick.) She drove up from Milwaukee and soon after she arrived we were on the road again, headed an hour and a half a...

Good for you taking it easy. I know there are chores to be done and businesses to be run but sometimes you just have to drop everything and play.
{This moment}
I had every intention of posting today (or yesterday, or... well, you get the idea) but life and Lyme got in the way. So instead I'm taking my kids on a field trip to this amazing place (where I used to work) and calling the weekend out early. Sending blessings to each of you today. Love, Rac...
Delightful. We've already read The BFG and love it.
... tell me a story: midsummer reading
Stormy summer afternoons, and nights spent tucked inside a sleeping bag with a flashlight are a perfect recipe for a good book. Whether you befriend the friendliest giant of them all... ... or go on witty journeys of the imagination... ... or end up in a wild tesseract... ... t...
I used to call my Rachel "Moon Face" when she was an infant. We had a little blue night light that made her sweet, round face glow. *sigh*
Every choice.
I was laying in bed with my kids at dusk, settling them in for night. The rain was softly falling on the roof above us, the birds still chattering in the trees below. My mind was wandering as it always does at bedtime. And through the darkness and I was marveling and wondering at the path ...
Oh, and what a sweet moment it is.
{This Moment}
Joining Amanda today with {this moment}. (Oh, my. Those ears!) Have a wonderful weekend, friends. Love, Rachel
Oh, those sheep are too cute!

My kiddos ate dinner outside last night. I just couldn't get them in. We're loving the warmer WI temperatures...finally.
Spring means...
The primitive call of the cranes, the cackle of the pheasant, the trill of the red-winged blackbirds. We stop in our tracks, hold our breath, and listen. Every time. My morning tea made with maple sap instead of water. Heck, yeah. Mud. Everywhere. Enjoying meals outside because it...
This is beautiful. I love seeing kids express themselves creatively.

Lovely give-away.
... tell me a story: the runaway bunny
Every child goes through it, that time when Mom and Dad, and home are anywhere, but where they want to be. To my recollection this usually ends up with some elaborate plan to run away. I know I thought of many escape routes as a kid whenever my Mom and Papa, said no to the chocolate bar, or ...
My sister just moved back to town after having been out of state four years. I'm giddy that she's home. :)
Giveaway : : A crazy, fun, heap of goodness from me to you.
Because why not? It's my blog and I can give you random stuff if I want to. I noticed earlier this week that I hit 2000 Facebook fans for Clean and almost 3000 for LuSa Organics. And frankly I was kind of jazzed. That's a decent number of folks who either show up to read to what I write each ...
