The Twinery is allowing each participating designer on the hop to give away a fabulous Striped Twine Sampler! That means there are EIGHT of these beauties being given away:

To enter, just leave a comment on each post along the hop. (And since each designer is giving away a Striped Twine Sampler, each post is another chance to win!)

Comments will close at midnight (EST) on Tuesday, November 3rd.
Winners will be posted on The Twinery blog on Thursday, November 5th.

The Storage:
My craft supplies are stored in every crafter's best friend (an Expedit bookcase from IKEA - no longer available, but the new version is called Kallax). Within that, I store my twine in two wire baskets. (Mine came from a company that is now out of business, but you can find cute wire baskets in a variety of places. My baskets are approximately 11" x 13" x 4 1/2". Here is something similar I found online, but slightly smaller dimensions and slightly taller sides - approximately 10" x 11 1/8" x 5 1/4". Still, it looks like a great size for twine storage.) 

I love pulling my twine out and seeing all those beautiful rolls to choose from when I am creating! I also love how it looks on the shelf - cute and contained.
Because I don't have a dedicated craft room (or even craft table), all of my craft supplies need to be easy to get out and easy to put back - so storing them in easily accessible (& portable) containers on my bookcase works well for me. 

Because my craft bookcase is in easy view (and not in a dedicated craft room), I wanted to make it both functional and pretty. I have a variety of baskets, boxes, bins, tins, totes, jars...you get the idea...along with a few small decorative items placed throughout the cubbies of my bookshelf.

I have my twine baskets separated into twine types. One basket holds solid and shimmer twines:
 And the other basket holds striped and tri-color twines:
I stack them in one cubby in my bookcase. Nothing fancy, but it works for me!

How do you store your twine? I'd love to see!

Book Review :: NKJV Faithgirlz Bible

The Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV is the newest in the line of Faithgirlz Bibles and books from Zondervan. (If you have checked out the Faithgirlz Bible, NIV that I have reviewed previously, these Bibles are very similar.) The Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV has a (full color) printed hard cover which you see in the cover image. (There is a version of the Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV that has an imitation/leather-look cover, but the one I am reviewing has a hardcover.)
The Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV has all purple text (including the words of Christ) with various dark pink (almost red) accents (headings, chapter numbers, etc.), and is laid out in two columns. This is the NKJV version of the Bible (© 1982). The text is standard size - not large, but not extra small. It does contain some basic footnotes. There is not a presentation page like you might find in many Bibles, but there is a page at the front with plenty of room to add a note or a name if you choose to do so.

There is a brief, single-page introduction for each book of the Bible. Each introduction covers a few basic things about the book (some thoughts about the book, "Who wrote it", "When it was written", "Where it takes place", "Cool characters you'll meet", "Bad guys to watch for", "The point", and "How it connects"). There are also introductions/overviews of the Old Testament and the New Testament.

The Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV has several specific features spread throughout the text. 
They are:
- "Dream Girl" (helping you to imagine yourself in the events of the Scriptures)
- "Bring It On!" (a quiz-style feature leading you to verses to encourage you)
- "Oh, I Get It!" (a bit of commentary on some things that you might have questions about)
- "Treasure This!" (highlighted verses that would be great for memorization)
- "Is There a Little _____ in You?" (a look at some character traits that you might have in common with people in the Bible)
- "In Your Own Words" (a recap of events and a space to write a summary of events in your own words)

In addition to all the features throughout the text, there are some other features at the back of the Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV
They are:
- "How to Begin a Relationship with Jesus"
- "Through the Bible in a Year" (a checklist and reading plan for reading the entire Bible in 365 days)
- "Promises from the Bible" (some verses to look at that might be helpful in your current situation)
- "Perspectives from the Bible" (some verses to look at regarding specific topics)
- "My Notes" (journaling pages)

I'd say the Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV is probably best for young girls - starting as early as age 6 (if they are reading) and up to the early teens. The only reason I might not suggest it for older teens is the styling may look a bit young, but the content is still great. 

All in all, I think the Faithgirlz Bible, NKJV is a fantastic choice for a Bible for a young girl in your life.

Book Reviews :: Adventure Bible - I Can Read!: Ruth & Naomi and The Good Samaritan, illustrated by David Miles

There are several books in the I Can Read! / Adventure Bible series, and Ruth and Naomi and The Good Samaritan are two of the newest releases. Our family does not own the Adventure Bible, NIV or the Adventure Bible for Early Readers, so I cannot compare these books to those (to see if the content is duplicated). We do, however, own both the Adventure Bible for Toddlers and the Adventure Bible Storybook, and I can tell you that the wording and illustrations are not duplicated across these three editions. The books in the I Can Read! / Adventure Bible series are worded with simpler phrasing and shorter sentences than you will find in the Adventure Bible Storybook.

Ruth and Naomi is a re-telling of the story of Naomi's family which can be found in the Bible in the book of Ruth. The story continues all the way through to the birth of Jesus, which I appreciate. I did find a couple inconsistencies/literary freedoms in this book, but overall I think it is well done and is easy to understand. The story is accompanied by big, colorful illustrations.

At the end of Ruth and Naomi is a page containing "People in Bible Times" (which has an illustration of Ruth and Naomi accompanied by short descriptions of each and quotes Ruth 2:12) and "Words to Treasure" (Ruth 1:16).


The Good Samaritan is a re-telling of the parable of the good Samaritan/neighbor which can be found in the Bible in Luke 10:25-37. I did find a couple inconsistencies/literary freedoms in this book, but overall I think it is well done and is easy to understand. The story is accompanied by big, colorful illustrations.
At the end of The Good Samaritan is a page containing "People in Bible Times" (which has an illustration and description of a Samaritan and quotes Luke 10:27) and "Words to Treasure" (Luke 10:36-37).


The I Can Read! / Adventure Bible series are categorized as reading level 2 ("Reading with Help") and the stories do not feel "choppy" like you might find in some learn-to-read books. With a retail price under $4 per book, I find these books to be a great value.

Owl Watercolor Card Set {The Twinery}

Hello!

Today I wanted to share with you a quick and easy watercolored card set:
I love to create card sets because adding in a few extra cards doesn't take much more time to create (if you are working assembly line style), but then can be given as a simple gift (card sets are great hostess gifts)...or you can just stash them away for the times when you need to grab a quick card for a special occasion.
For this card set, I started by stamping that cute little owl and the sentiment on some 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" watercolor paper panels. After the panels were all stamped, I added the watercolors. When the paint was dry, I added a few dots around the images and sentiments, then adhered the panels to the front of some card bases. 

I finished it all off by adding some of The Twinery's solid twines. I love the pop that the twine gives - an extra burst of color and a little bit of grounding for the image and sentiment. A simple addition, but it makes a big difference. For this set, I used The Twinery's Solid Mandarin, Solid Peapod, Solid Denim, and Solid Lilac twines.
It took only a few supplies and a little bit of time to create these. Now, the hardest part - to decide if I should give these away as a set or set them aside to use individually as a suitable occasion arrives...

Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies: 
Cardstock: Discount Cardstock (Brilliant White 110#);
Other Paper: Canson (Watercolor Paper - Cold Press 140#);
Stamps: Unity Stamp Company (Hoot Hoot Hooray, Blossoming Thoughts & Wishes);
Ink: Ranger (Archival - Jet Black);
Twine: The Twinery (Solid MandarinSolid PeapodSolid Denim, Solid Lilac);

Book Review :: My Christmas Stocking (Filled With God's Love) by Crystal Bowman

My Christmas Stocking by Crystal Bowman is a children's board book, written in rhyme.  The board book is shaped (cut out around the stocking and gifts on the cover). 
The story is about Saint Nicholas and the origins of the Christmas stockings. The author emphasizes our Gift from God (our Savior, Jesus). The illustrations are cute and colorful and each image covers a two-page spread.

All in all, I think My Christmas Stocking is a cute book with an overall good message and is one that I will enjoy reading with little ones.

Book Review :: Goodnight, Manger by Lauri Sassi, illustrated by Jane Chapman

EDITED TO ADD: The Goodnight, Manger board book is now available and has the same content (pictures & text) as the hardcover book, just with board book pages.

Goodnight, Manger is a children's picture book, written in rhyme. This book by Laura Sassi is a fun, fictional story about the events surrounding Jesus' birth. (Laura Sassi has also written another cute book about the animals on board Noah's ark called Goodnight, Ark.)
Goodnight, Manger is both fun and funny, and I can see this becoming one of our favorites. A few pages are written with the anticipation on one page and the completed rhyme on the next page, giving a good chance for your young ones to join in with their guesses.

Although the title may lead you to believe otherwise, Goodnight, Manger is not a Goodnight Moon-style book (where you are saying "goodnight" to something on each page). Rather, Goodnight, Manger is a story about the animals and events surrounding Jesus' birth. (Just incase it needs to be stated explicitly - this is a fictional story, not to be mistaken with a biblical account.)

The illustrations in Goodnight, Manger are fabulous. Illustrator Jane Chapman has done a wonderful job of creating images that are attractive and fun, giving the reader a lot to look at. The colors are a touch more muted than you might find in many other children's books, which I appreciate. Each illustration covers a full two-page spread.

Overall, I recommend Goodnight, Manger and think it would be a great addition to any family's bookshelf.

Book Review :: Thank You, Lord, For Everything by PJ Lyons, illustrated by Tim Warnes

Thank You, Lord, For Everything is a children's board book, written in rhyme.
Thank You, Lord, For Everything is a great little book that is centered on thankfulness - I think it is really a great book to read with your little ones.

The illustrations in Thank You, Lord, For Everything are really cute. They feature the little bear on the cover and follow him through the day.

All in all, Thank You, Lord, For Everything is a great book and a wonderful choice for your family's bookshelf.

Book Review :: My Give Thanks Bible

The My Give Thanks Bible is a cute choice for a first Bible book for your little one. The My Give Thanks Bible is a padded hardcover board book, with cute illustrations in a bright color palette. There are 20 page openings (for a total of 40 pages) that each have a title, Scripture reference, a short story, and a short prayer of thankfulness.
The My Give Thanks Bible contains 16 Bible stories:

Old Testament stories:
- "How the World Began" (creation)
- "Adam & Eve" (Adam & Eve)
- "Noah's Ark" (Noah's ark)
- "A Baby in a Basket" (baby Moses)
- "Moses and the Red Sea" (Moses)
- "David and the Giant" (David & Goliath)
- "Wise King Solomon" (Solomon)
- "In a Den of Lions" (Daniel)

New Testament stories:
- "Mary and the Angel" (Jesus' birth)
- "A Star Lights the Way" (wise men)
- "Jesus Is Baptized" (Jesus' baptism)
- "Jesus and the Disciples" (Jesus' disciples)
- "Food for Five Thousand" (Jesus feeds many)
- "Jesus and the Children" (Jesus & children)
- "Jesus' Sacrifice" (Jesus' arrest & crucifixion)
- "Jesus Goes to Heaven" (resurrection & ascension)

The stories and short prayers in the My Give Thanks Bible are the perfect size for babies and small toddlers. I love that the My Give Thanks Bible includes some stories that are not typically found in Bible story board books and has a focus on thankfulness. Focusing on being thankful can never happen too early in life. Overall, I think this is a must have for your little one's bookshelf.

Book Review :: Frost Bible, ICB by Thomas Nelson/Tommy Nelson Publishers

The Frost Bible is the International Children's Bible (ICB) edition of the Bible. The Frost Bible is bound in a hardcover decorated with glitter and teal and silver foil accents. The Frost Bible is an obvious choice for any girl who loves the hit movie, Frozen. (This is NOT an official Frozen item, though. You won't find Anna, Elsa, or Olaf hiding inside the pages.)
The decoration (foil/glitter) is only on the front cover and spine of the Frost Bible. The back cover is just printed in the base blue. The glitter seems to be well adhered - you aren't going to be finding glitter all over your house.

As a bonus, the Frost Bible comes with a free tote bag. The tote bag is made primarily of light blue material (like the material you would see used in the cheap, reuseable bags at the grocery store), but features a front panel of light blue, transparent, glittered plastic so you can easily see the contents. The bag is roomy enough to easily fit the Frost Bible, a small notebook, and some writing instruments.

Inside, there is a pretty presentation page backed with a page for the girl to fill in her family history. This is immediately followed by a "Why Should I Read the Bible?" page and a 4 page Bible time line. These items at the front of the Frost Bible are all in a section of coated, full color pages. Besides two inserts and one section at the back of coated, full color pages, the rest of the Frost Bible is the plain, 2 column, black text (including the words of Christ) ICB version of the Bible. There are a few lightly "highlighted" (gray background) verses throughout the text and some words in bold (defined in the Dictionary at the back of the Bible), but otherwise there are no special study notes and/or decorative accents. The first "insert" of 4 coated, full color pages contains the pages: "How Do I Know Jesus Loves Me?", "Bible Verses to Know", "My Favorite Bible Verses" (a lined page, for the Bible owner to fill in), and "Knowing Jesus Better". The second "insert" of 4 coated, full color pages contains the pages: "How Do I Pray?", "How Do I Forgive?", "How Can I Let God's Love Shine Through Me?", and "How Do I Study the Bible?". After the Dictionary at the back of the Frost Bible, there is another section of coated, full color pages containing the pages: "The Names of God", "The Miracles of Jesus", "The Disciples", "Kids in the Bible", and 4 maps ("Abraham's Journey", "The Desert Wanderings", "Jesus' Last Week in Jerusalem", and "Palestine in Jesus' Life").

Because of the simple and easy to read text of the International Children's Bible (ICB) version and the "frosty" cover and interior accent pages, I think the Frost Bible should definitely be considered for a little glitter (and snowflake) loving girl in your life.

Book Review :: Submarines, Secrets, and a Daring Rescue by Robert J. Skead with Robert A. Skead

Submarines, Secrets, and a Daring Rescue is a juvenile fiction novel written by father/son team Robert J. Skead and Robert A. Skead. This is the second book written in the American Revolutionary War Adventures series by the father/son duo. (The first book was Patriots, Redcoats, & Spies.) The Skeads have family ties to the Revolutionary War, so this series seems to be particularly special for them.
Submarines, Secrets, and a Daring Rescue is a 22-chapter, 206-page novel (the actual text of the story covers from page 9 through page 180). There is also some additional bonus material:
  • Acknowledgements
  • Note from the Storytellers
  • Oath of Allegiance
  • Discussion Questions
  • Historical Characters
  • Glossary
  • Historical Letters
There are a few black and white/line art illustrations included, as well. (There are 9 total illustrations spread throughout the story.)

As for the story itself, the year is 1778 and teenage twin boys (John & Ambrose Clark) are tasked with getting gunpowder to the patriots during the Revolutionary War. Eventually, John & Ambrose find themselves piloting an early submarine (The Turtle). Their older brother, Berty, gets involved, too.

Submarines, Secrets, and a Daring Rescue keeps a good pace right from the start. The book is interesting, start-to-finish.   

I enjoyed reading Submarines, Secrets, and a Daring Rescue and have passed it on to my 9-year old son to read. Although there was no official mention of another book in the series, the ending certainly leaves it open for more. We will be keeping our eyes open for the possibility of another book, just incase.

Book Reviews :: Andi Unexpected, Andi Under Pressure, and Andi Unstoppable by Amanda Flower

Andi Unexpected is the first in the series of Andi Boggs novels. (Hardcover, 215 pages.)

In Andi Unexpected, we meet Andi (Andora) Boggs who is now living with her aunt after the death of her parents. Andi discovers a trunk in her attic that leads her and her friend, Colin Carter, to begin investigating a town and family secret. I won't spoil anything here in my review, but things get interesting. 
My daughter (age 11) enjoyed reading Andi Unexpected. She has already re-read it multiple times. When I asked her what she liked about the book, she said, "the mystery". She did say that it may be difficult to follow at times, but in general she would recommend it to both boys and girls in the 8-12 age range. 


Andi Under Pressure is the second in the series of Andi Boggs novels. (Hardcover, 174 pages.)

In Andi Under Pressure, we meet up again with Andi and her friend, Colin Carter, as they go to Discovery Camp...where things start going missing. Andi and Colin are back to investigating again. (So I don't spoil anything, I'll just stop there.)
My daughter (age 11) really enjoyed reading Andi Under Pressure (even more than she liked Andi Unexpected). She has already re-read it multiple times. When I asked her what she liked about the book, she said, "the adventure". She said she would recommend it to both boys and girls in the 8-12 age range. 


Andi Unstoppable is the third in the series of Andi Boggs novels. (Hardcover, 171 pages.)

In Andi Unstoppable, again Andi and her friend, Colin Carter, find themselves in the middle of a local mystery. It's another investigation for Andi and Colin. (I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just stop there.)
Unlike Andi Unexpected and Andi Under Pressure, my daughter (age 11) did not care for Andi Unstoppable. She felt that unlike the previous two books, the clues weren't scattered throughout the story but rather everything was revealed at the very end, which she didn't care for.

Book Review :: Adventure Bible For Little Ones

The Adventure Bible for Little Ones (formerly titled Adventure Bible for Toddlers) is a padded hardcover book with boardbook pages. Yes, if you have the Adventure Bible for Toddlers - it is identical to the Adventure Bible for Little Ones -all that has changed is the wording on the front cover. 

The Adventure Bible for Little Ones/Adventure Bible for Toddlers is another addition to the popular Adventure Bible line from Zondervan/Zonderkidz. As with the rest of the Adventure Bible line, the Adventure Bible for Little Ones contains many references to "adventure". (It leans toward overkill of the word, in my opinion.)

The Adventure Bible for Little Ones contains 40 boardbook pages (counting front and back side as two pages), featuring 6 stories from the Old Testament and 4 stories from the New Testament. Each story is 4 pages (2 page openings) long.

Old Testament stories:
- "The Adventure Begins" (Creation)
- "Noah's Ark"
- "Moses' Many Adventures" (Moses)
- "Boy Versus Giant" (David & Goliath)
- "Drooling Lions" (Daniel & the lions)
- "Fish Food" (Jonah)

New Testament stories:
- "Jesus Is Born" 
- "Jesus Is Baptized"
- "Jesus and the Children"
- "The Adventure Continues..." (the Gospels)
The art in the Adventure Bible for Little Ones is not like the very cartoon-like drawings you will find in most toddler books, but are rather more on the realistic side. (The illustrations are done by Jim Madsen who also illustrated the NIV Adventure Bible, the NIrV Adventure Bible for Early Readers, and the Adventure Bible Storybook.) Although in general I appreciated the illustrations in the Adventure Bible for Little Ones, I did find one of the illustrations in the story about Jonah to be a bit graphic for my taste. (The illustration shows an angry looking fish spewing a green liquid, along with Jonah, from his mouth. This is accompanied by the story, which says, "Jonah got up and wiped himself off.")

The text is by Catherine DeVries who also wrote the Adventure Bible Storybook. The stories in the Adventure Bible for Little Ones are just that - stories. (They are not quotes from the Bible.)

The title (Adventure Bible for Little Ones) references this being a book for toddlers, but the back cover says "Ages 4-8". In my experience, kids generally tend to get over board books around age 4, so I would go with the "Toddler" on this, not the age recommendation. The boardbook pages are sturdy and the cover is hardback with a slight padding. 

All in all, I think the Adventure Bible for Little Ones is a good book to have to share with your toddlers. With the limitations of a boardbook (not very many pages), you will also want to have other toddler Bible storybooks on hand to share with your little ones to give a more comprehensive overview of the Bible's stories.

Owl Bottle Cap Necklace


Today I have a fun, quick project to share...something wearable using The Twinery's Solid Denim twine.
I love creating jewelry and other wearable items with The Twinery's twine because it is so soft! (It is 100% cotton.)

I started by using a bottle cap to create my necklace base. I then added some split rings to hold that cute little owl charm, which was created using shrink plastic.
First I stamped my image on shrink plastic, colored it in, and then I used my heat gun to shrink it. In the photo above you can see how the image shrinks in size - the first piece is unheated, the second piece is partially heated, and the third piece is completely heated. (And don't worry about all the curling that happens as you are heating it - it doesn't seem like it, but it will flatten out.)

When I had the bottle cap and owl charm all completed, I used three strands of Solid Denim twine to create the actual necklace portion. I tied a few knots in the twine to give it a little added interest, but that is not necessary. (Pun intended.)
Unfortunately for me, my neck model (my daughter) has confiscated the necklace. Good thing they are so simple to create!

Thanks for stopping by!
