craft hope
For the most part, I’ve tried to keep Frog Creek its own little world… free of too much “me,” and too much stuff. In a brief departure, I want to just mention Craft Hope.
Founder Jade Sims says, “Craft Hope is a faith-based, love inspired project designed to share handmade crafts with those less fortunate. It is our hope to combine our love for crafting and desire to help others into a project to make a difference around the world.”
For their current project, Craft Hope is collecting handmade dolls to be distributed this summer to the children at Casa Bernabe Orphanage in Nicaragua. There are free tutorials all over the internet, including a couple of my favorites–the Black Apple Doll and the softie doll from 60 piggies. The deadline to get the dolls to Craft Hope is June 13th.
My daughter and I will be working together on a doll or two. If you have any suggestions for more great doll tutorials out there, please leave a comment with the link.
