Attention: Now is the perfect time to go foraging for nature supplies. Leaves, acorns, pinecones – they are all in abundance.
And when you come home loaded with beautiful acorns, pop them in the oven RIGHT AWAY so you don’t end up with pet bugs in your stash of
treasures. It is the best nugget of advice
I can share. And I got it from Jean Van’t Hul’s new ebook, The Artful Year:: Autumn.
The Artful Year:: Autumn is jam-packed with seasonal crafts, recipes and book suggestions as well as covering Halloween and Thanksgiving. It is well written, great for kids of all ages, and includes beautiful pictures of all the crafts. And a steal for $9.99 as I think it will serve as a great reference for years to come.
My girls are planning on making the web and spider as part of our Halloween decorating this week.
I am happy to have played a very small role in this book – I was on the editorial team that pre-read the book and offered suggestions to Jean.
This book is the first in a series of books exploring The Artful Year. I look forward to winter, spring and summer.
You can buy The Artful Year:: Autumn right here.
Images: all images, except for the first acorn picture, are from the ebook, The Artful Parent:: Autumn.
