A little peek at what's inside!
Please see the
"About Playscapes"
page for general
information about
all of my Fantasy
Playscapes and my
thoughts about the
importance of
imaginative play!
HAPPY 2012!!!
Come create with us! New needle felting classes
scheduled for Winter starting on 2/4/12 - see classes
page for details!
I'm looking for people who would like to meet once or
twice monthly at my studio space as a non-structured
group - to work on projects, have coffee, share ideas,
etc.... a creative 'support group' of sorts for those of us
striving to preserve time for our creativity in this fast
paced world. Email me with availability and interest!

Dear Viewers;
My goal is to make wholesome,
nurturing, and creative toys
that support a child’s imagination
and the free expression of his/her
emotions, dreams, and fears.
I use only natural and/or child-safe materials, mostly
wool and other fibers, as they provide a grounding
connection to the earth and a rich texture for both
the eyes and the hands.
Most of my items are "Waldorf inspired", meaning
that they are simple in form, intended for "open-
ended play",and promote a connection with the
natural world.
The dolls do not have faces. The playscapes have
simple elements and provide significant "free" space
to give a child physical room to move their
characters about as they wish.
The idea is to provide a “jumping off point", a
canvas, ready for your own child's imagined details
and individual stories.
I believe each child’s world would be a wonder to see!
Welcome!
***I'll be teaching and have a
table at the Shepherds Harvest
Festival again in Lake Elmo
on 5/12 & 5/13 2012!
