The Fairy Toadstool House Story

Hi crafty friends,
Welcome to Toadstool House!
This is the original fairy toadstool house we made for our biggest school craft project yet.
We are passionate about craft and we love sharing our ideas and inspirations with other crafty  women.We run a craft group for parents at our school in which we present a project each week to make for school and one to take home. The classes are free and people can buy materials for their own projects to finish at home.

This project had a fantastic response as you can see below.



t we have some very creative women! Check out their work.















  















There were so many beautiful designs and ideas .there wre over 30 houses made.far too many photos to be shown here.This was half of them at our school market.


 We made a last minute bid in our local country agricultural show and won first prize in the toy section winning a hansom sum of $6. But we were honoured to be chosen!

 They also made a great impression at  the Vital Years Early Childhood Conference 2009 in Brisbane where we helped set up and run the craft shop co-op.









We were then invited to contribute the craft project to be published in "Star Weavers" autumn/winter 2010 edition, in the craft project section. This is a beautiful publication with superb visual images, gorgeous songs, stories and facinating articles. Its definately worth a read! Vicki Kearney who publishes it from Brisbane encouraged us to get a kit together. And so the Fairy Toad Stool House Kit was born!!!!!!
