At the teachers birthday celebration the kids gave their teachers a jar of home made jam. I made some cute deks and… labels on it with my handcarved stamps!!! They loved the gift. The fruit is coming from our own garden…so really made and let grow by me( and my heavenly Father that makes my fruit grow!!!)

I also made a grab dress for the fancy fair of the new school where the kids are going to after this summer. they go to the first evangelical basicschool of the North of the Netherlands! EBS De fontein starts in september. We had a fancy fair to raise money for some play ground climbing stuff on the square of the school.

I had a table with all kind of handmade stuff to sell. some cute elastics for girls hair, dolls, handbags, totes etc..
I still sell these things for this good purpose so if you are interested, just let me know or head over to my webshop!

This is made for the vossenjacht of june… I made a picknick messangerbag that is lined with insulation so it willl keep stuff cool! I think it turned out great! Gonna make myself one for this summer!!!
