sock puppet book giveaway

I thought I’d celebrate this back to school season by putting together a big Back to School Book Giveaway filled with a whole bunch of fun crafting and drawing books (we all know that schools struggle to keep arts and crafts in their programs so we have to enrich our lives and our kid’s lives by other means. Leave a comment in today’s post by September 12, 2014 (Open to U.S. Residents only please.) to get yourself in the running for copies of:

The Ultimate Sock Puppet Book (see a flip through video of the inside pages of the book here)

Origami Master Class Flowers,

Draw 500 Fabulous Flowers,

Draw 500 Awesome Animals,

and Just Us Girls.

  22. I’m an elementary school art/quilt/fairy tale teacher and would LOVE these for my kids! Thanks for the chance to win!

  24. So happy I found your site! My 4 year old is suddenly very interested in “organized” craft projects and sock puppets have been running through my mind as something fun for her and her 2 year old! Thanks for the chance- all the books look so fun!

  27. Oh gosh, what a divine selection of book for my family. My daughter can make us all sock puppets (I want the rabbit), Grandson can draw the animals he loves, granddaughter can draw the flowers she loves, I can do the origami and we all could enjoy Just Us Girls! Wouldn’t we look great in those grass skirts! Spoon patterns look fantastic. Wonderful giveaway!

  31. Those sock puppets are awesome, mine are just a sock with black marker eyes. Now I wonder, are my kids laughing because of the story or of my puppet.

  40. So many fabulous titles to add to our crafts collection at the library. Mahalo for the opportunity to win!

  42. It is sad but so many schools have discontinued the arts programs and many music programs are also in jeopardy. These books look great! Thanks for the chance to win.

  48. Winning this giveaway would be perfect timing! My 4 year old has been checking books out from the library on drawing and with the Midwest fall/winter coming I have been trying to brainstorm ideas for long days inside for my 3 kids. This package would be perfect for our family!!

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

Art can speak volumes, but it doesn’t have to cost the earth—literally. This recycled artwork, framed and ready to hang, is a perfect example of how beauty can emerge from the unexpected. It’s made from upcycled materials, bringing new life to discarded objects in the most artistic way possible.

This piece has that effortlessly cool, modern feel that I just adore. It reminds me of the kind of art I used to make as a kid—finding bits and bobs around the house and combining them into something that just worked. Only now, this work is polished, framed, and ready to elevate your home decor. It’s sustainable art with a story to tell.

What’s really great about this kind of art is that it adds character, depth, and meaning to a space. It’s not just a pretty picture; it’s a reminder that beauty can come from reuse and recycling, and it’s a nod to those of us who want to surround ourselves with eco-friendly treasures.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled materials

  • Each piece is completely unique and crafted with care

  • A conversation starter for your sustainable home decor or eco-conscious gallery wall

If you’ve been looking to add a touch of meaningful, eco-friendly style to your walls, this recycled artwork is definitely the way to go.
