Teenage Folk Art

August 12, 2011 / No Comments

I think the teenage fashion blogger Tavi is a folk art genius.

“I am a big advocate for decorating and writing in books and lending and giving them to people. This one had a nice letter from the person who gave it to me on the inside that I didn’t find for months until I started reading it, which was quite a nice surprise, and I support stickers of any kind on anything. The last time Ella and I did the Ouija board I needed somewhere to write the answers, and I like having them on the inside of the back cover.” –read the whole oogum boogum post here

Hi! I live in Vermont with my husband Joe and our four daughters: 11, 9, 6, and 3.

Writing on this blog is fluid. In an effort to just keep going I try to publish things before they feel ready or perfect, and I often come back and edit them again, later on. Its primary purpose is a way to engage with others on topics that otherwise swirl about in my mind in a lonely way. I spend most of my time homeschooling and learning alongside the girls. I grew up in Michigan and was homeschooled with my six siblings until I went to high school. I believe in God; our family attends a Mennonite church.
