Craft as a tool of Manifestation

If you are wondering what we are doing in Kids Craft Club... we are creating our Reality.

It is so important to learn the stages of manifestation. First comes the idea which can be inspired by something you read, seen or dreamt about. Then you put it down on paper as a sketch using words and drawing. You are following with organizing all the materials you need (keep in mind it’s ok to change some of it during the process) and Only then you put it all together.
This is why we always start with pencil, piece of paper and a bowl for resources.
This is why I’m teaching the kids to work with patterns throught sewing plushies and design their own bags.
Art and Craft teaches us much more than just gluing papers together.
Just Do Craft and Be Happy

Be Youself

When someone asks me “How long have you been a crafter and artist?” My answer is “I’ve never stopped.” Craft is another sense we experience our world through as children. During school years some of us busy learning with our minds and some still need to get their hands dirty and crafty.
I love to use different material in my crafts. It took me several years as a teenager to finally Be myself in my crafts and stop listening to all those one-discipline teachers:”You are not suppose to combine acrylic with watercolors!” “Don’t mix this with that”, “Jewelry is not woodworking!”etc. 
Well, I say mix it all! Create and Be Happy!

I can’t wait for tomorrow when five girls will design their shirt in the way they like, as part of our Kids Craft Club on Tuesdays. Maybe they will use colours, maybe ribbons, maybe fabrics and maybe beads or maybe all of it and some more. I know it’s just an hour and a half but I’m happy to share that magical hour where they can Be Themselves  in the craft. 

Be Yourself,
Natalie

Tea box

I have lots of tea. Those little boxes of 10 tea satchet. And everyday I'm bisy in opening them again and again deciding which one will I make today. Half of the boxes were empty so I've started to reorganize all my tea closet.

Empty box here, empty box there, scissors lying around and my creative mind started to create...my new Tea Box! 

One Box to keep them all
One Box to bring them
One Box to show them all 
And in the cup to steep them!


 Have a nice cup of tea

Samhain Blessings

A year passed by and it's Samhain time again. Although I live in Southern hemisphere now, I still feel connected to the otherside. Now is a time of reconnecting to our roots and honouring the ancestors. Today I welcome Cerridwen and thanking Rhiannon. And I welcome you to go down into the Labyrinth, connect to your subconscious and work with your shadow. 

            *Ink on tea stained paper*



May the Owl guide you on your way toward your goals,

May the Salmon give you wisdom in your choices,

May the Horse help you overcome your obstacles,

And May the Hare fill your life with Abundance.

Samhain blessing to all.

My new "Out of the Deep" trilogy: Nautilus, Octopus and Jelly Fish.
After many dreams of ocean deep creatures I've desided to draw some of them.
