7th slippers and blacksmithing .
I sure haven't been keeping up on this blog! Oh well, that means I have been very busy with students and handwork and a lot of fun in my personal life!
Anyhoo...here are some pictures of first, a few finished boiled wool sewn slippers from 7th grade. They took to this project with such enthusiasm this year! I would love to do wet felted slippers, but with 30 students it just doesn't work. This is my second choice, and they really had some fun with it this year.
The next two pictures of the knife is actually my son's knife he made in his senior year at Sacramento Waldorf School in his Blacksmithing class. He loved it, and he loves his handwork teacher. The shape of the top is for a bottle opener...hmmm. They had to go to the river to get the mud to make the forges, sew the bellows...chop the wood for the coals...I wish I had this class!
