I'm so excited that Amanda's second book is out, Handmade Home: Simple Ways to Repurpose Old Materials into New Family Treasures. It's packed full of great ideas, projects, and activities.
This sketchbook project is one of my favorites. This book is wonderful— all the ideas in it involve using stuff you already have lying around the house. It's awesome.
The girls can't put this down and are already marking the projects they want to try. I think this art tray (and the bird drawings) are next. It's so great to see kids in the act of making these projects—so many craft books don't show children actually making stuff (more just posing with the finished product) it really resonates with my kids and makes them so excited to try these activities. Congrats Amanda!
