Free Digital Halloween Printable For Scrapbook, Card-making etc.


     Happy Hallowe'en everybody. Or Day of the Dead, whatever it is you celebrate today. (And if you don't, I don't mean to offend anybody, you can just ignore this freebie.)
     I'm sorry I haven't been on much, have been ill a great deal and have had tons of dr. appointments and tests. But I took the time to create a goodie for my kids who are away, plus a free Digital Download for you
       You can use it for scrapbooking, cardmaking, collage, multi-media, papercrafts etc. I made it in high quality dpi so you can print it out or use it in your digital albums. To make it I used a Vintage card I altered and added stuff to.
     You may print it out or use it digitally, for your own use or to use in your crafts you give as gifts or to sell, but please don't redistribute it digitally as a file or as a print out collage sheet  yourself. Send anybody who wants a copy, to my site so they day download it free for themselves.
     I'd love to see photos if you make anything using some or all of it! Just leave a comment with your link here!
     Happy Hallowe'en!

Free Hand Sewing Lessons Vintage Teaching and Learning to Sew 3 year course and some fond memories

     Although not extensively illustrated, this "Hand Sewing Lessons -- A Graded Course for Schools and for the Home" by Sarah Ewell Krolik should interest teachers, homeschoolers and anybody else (children through adult) who wishes to teach hand sewing, or to learn to sew.
     This might have come in handy years ago when I taught my oldest son extremely basic hand sewing. He made his own pillow out of one of his favorite Scooby Doo shirts that he had outgrown. He was so proud of it and LOVED using his own creation. The experience is a fond memory.
     It's also a huge bonus. Years later, he had a hole in his pants. Rather than rely on somebody else to fix it, he sewed it up all on his own in great, small stitches. Wow, was his grandmother surprised and impressed.
     The ebook is offered by Homeschool Freebie of the Day. Here's how Jim Erskine describes it:
     "This vintage instruction manual, originally published in 1905, is a great THREE YEAR course in hand sewing basics designed for home or school instruction. This is quite different than the sewing resource we offered months ago. Lots of helpful instructions for the teacher, with many projects and ideas for teaching. Check it out if you are interested in teaching this largely neglected but eminently practical skill."

Fun Free Arts And Crafts Paper and Scissors Book for kids, homeschool, classroom or adults


     If you're read this blog once in a while, chances are that as soon as you saw this post you knew I was excited about the freebie (arts and crafts nut and kid at heart that I am.) Paper crafts are especially cool because they can be cheap if you use the recycled kind!
     Well, today over at Homeschool Freebie of the Day Jim Erskine is offering the vintage book "PAPER AND SCISSORS (PDF ebook). Sure, kids (homeschoolers or brick and mortar students alike, I should think) will enjoy this. But so will parents and grandparents and great grandparents. Plus especially paper crafts artists, card-makers, etc.
     Here's how Erskine describes the book:
"A timeless classic guide to paper folding and construction, both for fun (think toys, doll furniture, etc.), eye-hand coordination, dexterity, and as an introduction to learning geometrical figures. This practical and systematic

     Here's how Amazon describes the book: "You Are a Writer" is a book about what it takes to be a writer in the 21st Century.
     Author Jeff Goins shares his own story of self-doubt and what it took for him to become a professional. He gives you practical tips for freelancing, how to get published in magazines, and what it takes to build a platform that brings the gatekeepers to you.
     This journey of becoming a writer begins with a simple but important belief: You are a writer; you just need to write. Readers will learn the importance of passion and discipline and how to show up every day to do the work. "
     To get your copy, please click the box below. Once at Amazon you can double check that it's still free (or if they changed it to a price you approve of, still) then click buy now.

I can't wait to read "THE SPARK OF LIFE by Margaret Warner Morley, and to have my kids read it too, of course. They love nature stuff!

As Jim Erskine puts it, this free ebook is "The story of how living things come into the world, told for boys and girls. This is another short, sweet and delightful nature book (only 60+ pages) from the author of Little Wanderers and Seed Babies.
