Water Beads

 So I was wandering around my local Dollar Tree and found this kit! It's a grow your own water bead kit.  Great for a mini science lesson and for sensory.  All for a buck.

 At first, they are teeny tiny, but, after a couple hours, they are marble size.  I couldn't resist taking pics of the stages - how colorful and happy they are.

 I also bought this mini fishbowl at the Dollar Tree.  It's the perfect size but glass.

 The above photo was taken after 20 mins...

 These photos were within 2 hours.

 They feel all wet and jelly like - super cool.

Yep, that's what I am doing on a Saturday morning!

Have a fun & play weekend

It's been a busy weekend.  I have made 14 new Fairy House Making Craft Kits in the shop (above).  These kits are individually, simply, beautifully packages in natural brown boxes and tied with baker's twine.  They would be perfect for that little Tinkerbell, for a fairy themed party, as a gift, or as a party favor.

Fairy House Kit Love

 I have these fairy house making kits in my etsy shop and received this sweet note about one of my sold kits.  Thank you sooo much!

Hi Melanie
I recently ordered a fairy house kit for my young niece and she absolutely loved it. She couldn't wait to get on the phone and tell me all about it. She just knows the fairies will love it! Magical!
Thank you
