Blogging about the things that I love to do including learning and implementing homesteading, sustainability and permaculture practices into my daily life. I also use this blog as an online journal writing about the day in and day out happenings in my life which include balancing family, work and the needs of the homestead, all while keeping in mind that you have to stop and smell the roses and count your blessings along the way.

Hook Rug Kit Give Away at Hungry Hook Primitives
I love crafts that use recycled materials and have loved the primitive creative patterns seen on hook rugs forever but have never known anyone who actually makes them who I might learn from. Today one of the new bloggers I follow Farm Girl posted the following giveaway from another creative blogger at Hungry Hook Primitives.
This blog explains in detail how to gather the supplies to begin making hook rugs including finding wool garments from thrift stores that can be used to make rug strips. If the rest of her tutorials are as easy to understand and as thorough as her first one I can't wait to read them. Finally I have a much clearer understanding of how these rugs are put together.
Visit her site and read yesterday and today's posts for a chance to enter her give away of one of the two kits pictured above.
Looks like fun.

The homestead dreamer should really think long and hard before choosing between buying raw land and an established place with electricity...
I did several of these about 35 years ago. They were quite popular back then. They are easy and a lot of fun to do. I really like the squares you have shown. You'd probably love doing it!! Give it a try. If I can do it, anyone can do it!!lol ...debbie
