This title is about connecting with your children, spending quality time and growing creatively together. It's about making a stimulating, simple environment in which their physical and mental development will be allowed to flourish at their own pace. Nature can be an endless source of fascination, creative materials and inspiration. You do not have to live in the countryside, be an experienced gardener or 'arty' to do any of the ideas presented in this title. All you need is the desire to spend meaningful time with your children and a wish that they grow up being in touch with nature.

Hippie Homesteaders - Arts, Crafts, Music and Living on the Land in West Virginia (Paperback): Carter Taylor Seaton Hippie Homesteaders - Arts, Crafts, Music and Living on the Land in West Virginia (Paperback)

It's the 1960s. The Vietnam War is raging and protests are erupting across the United States. In many quarters, young people are dropping out of society, leaving their urban homes behind in an attempt to find a safe place to live on their own terms, to grow their own food, and to avoid a war they passionately decry. During this time, West Virginia becomes a haven for thousands of these homesteaders - or back-to-the-landers, as they are termed by some. Others call them hippies. When the going got rough, many left. But a significant number remain to this day. Some were artisans when they arrived, while others adopted a craft that provided them with the cash necessary to survive. Hippie Homesteaders tells the story of this movement from the viewpoint of forty artisans and musicians who came to the state, lived on the land, and created successful careers with their craft. There's the couple that made baskets coveted by the Smithsonian Institution's Renwick Gallery. There's the draft-dodger that fled to Canada and then became a premier furniture maker. There's the Boston-born VISTA worker who started a quilting cooperative. And, there's the immigrant Chinese potter who lived on a commune. Along with these stories, Hippie Homesteaders examines the serendipitous timing of this influx and the community and economic support these crafters received from residents and state agencies in West Virginia. Without these young transplants, it's possible there would be no Tamarack: The Best of West Virginia, the first statewide collection of fine arts and handcrafts in the nation, and no Mountain Stage, the weekly live musical program broadcast worldwide on National Public Radio since 1983. Forget what you know about West Virginia. Hippie Homesteaders isn't about coal or hillbillies or moonshine or poverty. It is the story of why West Virginia was - and still is - a kind of heaven to so many.

Photographs have always evoked strong emotions - special memories caught on camera have their own special magic. But photos must be displayed for us to share their magic with others. Now there are many more display possibilities than placing them in an album or simply framing them.

This book shares more than 75 ideas for turning your photos into attractive and interesting displays. It is the result of much experimenting and trial and error. While some projects are both functional and decorative, others are delightfully quirky. They all have one thing in common: the creative use of photographs, and whatever you have at hand for embellishment. Bases used include canvas, glass, porcelain and ceramics, wood (MDF and soft wood), fabric, candles and skirting boards. In fact, there is hardly a surface that cannot be covered with a photograph in some way or another.

Various techniques are used, including several transfer methods, decoupage, photomontage and covering with resin. Use these ideas to turn your photos into valued gifts by personalising general-use items or simply create eye-catching decor for your home. Once you start, you may not want to stop! Illustrated with step by step photographs as well as magnificent photos of each finished project, the book will both teach and inspire.

So give your creativity free rein and fill your life with your special moments.
