@shilohfarm: Did you know we used to make dolls out of flowers? 🌸 Hollyhock dolls are super easy to make and only take 30 seconds. Pick a nice fully bloomed flower for the bottom dress and 1 unopened bud for the head. You can use a toothpick to connect the two or sometimes the stem alone works! Once you have the body assembled slowly peel back the petals on the head to reveal 2 beautiful eyes underneath. These simple, yet elegant dolls are such a fun way to engage your kids’ imaginations, encourage outdoor play, and bring an old-fashioned tradition back to life. #outdoorplay #garden #flower #hollyhocks #shilohfarm

Hello, I’m Portuguese. My grandmother is from the Alentejo region; during her childhood, it was customary to make dolls out of corn cobs and husks. She even made a few dolls for me, but I don’t have them with me.

I like using snapdragons as puppets! If you squeeze the sides, you can open them up like a mouth
