For many of us, our home is the center of our life. It is the place where our families meet and mingle, where we share our meals and share our dreams. So much more than just a space to live, our homes offer us a place of comfort, nourishment, and love for us and for our children. In Handmade Home, Amanda Blake Soule, author of The Creative Family and the blog SouleMama.com, offers simple sewing and craft projects for the home that reflect the needs, activities, and personalities of today’s families. As Amanda writes in the introduction, "As a crafter, I’m always looking for the next thing I want to make. As a mama, I’m always looking for the next thing we need—to do, to have, to use—as a family. The coming together of these parts is where the heart of Handmade Home lies." Filled with thirty-three projects made by reusing and repurposing materials, all of the items here offer a practical use in the home. From picnic blankets made out of repurposed bed sheets to curtains made out of vintage handkerchiefs, these projects express the sense of making something new out of something old as a way to live a more financially pared-down and simple life; lessen our impact on the earth; connect to the past and preserve a more traditional way of life; and place value on the work of the hands. Also included are projects that children can help with, allowing them to make their own special contribution to the family home. More than just a collection of projects for handmade items, this book offers the tools to create a life—and home—full of beauty, integrity, and joy. Projects include: • Papa’s Healing Cozy: This hot water bottle cover becomes a simple way to offer comfort to a sick child • Baby Sling: A simple pattern for an object that offers so much to a small child—refuge from the world and a place to lay their head next to a parent’s heart • Beach Blanket To-Go: Repurpose old sheets to create the perfect picnic blanket for special outdoor meals • Cozy Wall Pockets: A creative solution for storing a child’s small treasures Pattern templates for Handmade Home

Provides advice on quick and easy cooking from scratch, including setting up a pantry and preparing basic ingredients, and presents recipes, many of them vegetarian or free of eggs, dairy, or gluten.

Our Love Is from Clever Publishing is the perfect way to celebrate the love between parent and child. This sweet rhyme explores the love of family members throughout the year as they engage in activities together during winter, spring, summer, and fall. Children will learn about the four seasons and the various activities that can be enjoyed in each. Young readers will also explore poetry through rhyme and meter as they listen to the verses being read, or read the story themselves. In winter, families spend time playing in the snow, enjoying holiday lights, sledding down hills, and warming up by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate after time outside. Spring brings new flowers and days of flyingkites and looking for shapes in the clouds. In summer, families take walks to the park to watch the animals in the pond, and children play hide-and-seek, swim with friends, and enjoy ice-cream cones to stay cool. Families gaze at the fireflies when it's dark. And the season of fall brings with it cooler weather spent wandering in corn mazes, jumping in leaves, enjoying homemade stew, and decorating the house with pumpkins. And through every season and change that the year brings, the love of family remains as strong as ever!
