Spinning Tales Into Treasure

Join Lisa, Lily, Jemimah and Dorcas - or Grandma Dori as she is sometimes called - in a treasure filled discovery of how our family tales and stories become valuable jewels if we take the time to stop and listen.

Grandma Dori's stories are adapted from actual stories from the life of Lisa's Grandmother and Mother-in-law. You may find yourself remembering treasured tales from your family history.

This new program offered by Pockets Full of Fun is perfect for Women's Meetings and conferences. Call Lisa today to schedule 'Spinning Tales into Treasure' for your next women's event!

Lily Paper Doll!

Lily is proud to announce the availability of her new paper doll! This is available as a FREE download! There are two versions - a fancy backgound or a plain background which will use less ink on your printer! I suggest you print the doll on the thickest paper your printer can accommodate. My printer would allow me to use tag board which is a bit thicker than card stock. I used card stock for the clothes and that works well. You will notice that there are three outfits. The Dutch costume is already colored, but the other two outfits can be colored in however you like! (or like the example on the bottom of the page). You could even print out several and make Lily a wardrobe designed by you! You can tape magnets to the back side and then cut off the tabs on the clothes.

I will be filming a video tutorial on making the folding doll house which is just the right size for the Lily paper doll. (photos below) Have fun!!
