It's Waldorf Wednesday and these gorgeous handmade picks (ha! picks! get it? apples? picks?!) would make perfect gifts for the teacher!
{And if you homeschool like we do... that means YOU!}
The fresh, crisp air and back-to-school time have me thinking about apples and fall and harvest time.
The fresh, crisp air and back-to-school time have me thinking about apples and fall and harvest time.
So, I went searching for some inspiring handmade lovelies that would really be an asset to getting in to the autumn mood or decorating the fall nature table.
Each one is handmade by an Etsy artisan, inspired by the Waldorf
tradition, which lifts up the natural world and reflects it in natural
materials.
To the best of my knowledge, each of these toys has been crafted from natural materials by the artisan. You won't find any plastic, eco- or poly-felt (which are acrylic) or harmful finishes. Making these treasures safe for the kids, warm in their hands and biodegradable when their work is done.
Be sure to visit these shops (all chosen freely by me~ these are not advertisers~ that's how we roll around here!) AND to check out our years of Waldorf features here on the BTRT blog (see the list of labels on the right hand side column) to connect with talented and conscientious artisans of wonder-full things!
