New Ideas, Anyone?

Hi all!  Here at Fiddle & Frog, we are constantly working on new products and updating old ones.  I've said it before, but we both better live to be well over 100 so that we can make all of the fun things we think up!  Here are a few of the new things we're working on these days.
 
 
Games
An update to our MEMORY GAMES makes them less sticky (I used ModPodge as a finish before, but the pieces turned into one huge piece if they got warm).  I'm using a spray-on finish now that works much better.
 
HOPSCOTCH BOARDS are so fun!  I got this idea from a custom order on Etsy, and have since been inspired to make more.  It works best on a carpeted floor (as tile or wood may be slippery).  So fun to be able to play hopscotch all year round!

 
 
Everyone has probably seen the plastic FISHING GAMES with the little pole and fish with a magnet in their mouths.  Our take on it includes felt fish and a little wooden pole and net.  Too cute!


For the Boys
We've had requests to make more items for little boys, so we've come up with a MINI TOOLBOX SET that includes three little tools and carrying box, all made of wood. 
 
 
For the Girls & Grown-ups
To be fair, we added a little something for the girls too.  QUILTY TOTES come in two sizes, small for the little gals and large for the grown-ups.  All of the totes feature a colorful handle and lining, and are embellished with a little quilt patch on the front.  Some have a little message ('G' is for Grandma, 'M' is for Mommy, etc.) or a cute little picture (sunglasses, bugs, etc.) and all are fun and functional! 

 
Home Parties & Craft Bees
In addition to the new products we've been working on, we're adding new events to our repertoire as well.  HOME PARTIES allow you to invite your friends and family to your own home to enjoy our crafts.  (Tupperware can do it, right?)  We bring everything to you, and even provide some snacks! 
 
CRAFT BEES are similar to a Home Party, but include activities for the kiddos to make and take home.  We held our first Bee in July, and had a blast!  Contact us for more info on Home Parties and Craft Bees, and how to host your own!
 
Have a crafty day!
Your friends at Fiddle & Frog
