Anna-Wili Highfield shares some inspired kids craft on the Guest Blog this week!

After seeing her stunning work in detail last Friday, Jenny and I are super excited to have Sydney artist Anna-Wili Highfield on the Guest Blog all week!  Anna-Wili has formulated a very special week of posts, inspired by her 4 year old daughter Matilda.  Each day this week Anna-Wili will share a collection of truly unique crafty projects, made at home with or for her little one.   Amongst many inspired creations, we'll see a unique  take on the traditional hobby horse, Matilda's cherished 'wedding hat', and a pair of beautiful handpainted Butterfly wings to rival any store-bought tulle alternative!

SO resourceful, yet truly so simple, Anna-Wili's creative ideas are sure to inspire some crafty antics in your own household, as A.W says, 'with a small friend of your own'!

HUGE thanks to Anna-Wili and her little Matilda for sharing their crafty world with us!  Don't forget to pop over to the Guest Blog each day this week to see what they're up to!
