Norway's Husflidlag is an association
founded in 1910 to preserve and promote traditional crafts, and culture.
They offer courses for children, and both
my daughters have attended at some time the past couple years.
Last week Rosaline and I went to one of
their evening meetings where the topic was specifically directed toward the
children’s courses. The children and
teens got to display the items they made, and we had cake and coffee while a
lady demonstrated ideas, and techniques
geared specifically toward younger crafters.
In the room there was some very attractive
woven pictures, I haven’t done much weaving apart for school projects when I was
little and these looked so pretty that it is something I will just have to try
one day….
Check out their website: www.husflid.no
Beautiful woven picture |
A little peak at the technique |

This little bag has been used quite a bit. It's always nice when you send your child to a course, and they come back with something they can actually use..... |
