Linuwel School Fair.

Guess who went to the Linuwel School Fair? Yeah, this lucky duck. I so badly wish that we were richer/ lived closer so I could send Willow there. It's our local Steiner school, about 45 minutes away from where we live. (If you want more info in what a Steiner School is, you can read this.)

1. Driving up. It was packed. Loved the flags.
2. Linuwel is built over a lake, and dude, I totally want to cross a bridge to get to school every day.
3. Looking across the lake to the school.
4. For sale. My favorite thing for sale in this photo are the little trees. 
5. For sale. My favorite in this shot would be the dragons. Or the crowns. It's hard to go past a decent crown. 
6. The wands are totally my favorite in this one. I really ought to get around to making Willow one for Christmas.
7. The chairs. Oh em gee, the chairs. You can't see the fronts, but they were beautiful and sturdy, and the backs all had different carvings on them. Hearts, a person, trees, stars, flowers... Willow would love it. At childcare she always wants to put her bag in the locker with a flower sticker hidden on it's inside roof- every morning, she peers underneath all the lockers, to find to right one, which is "hers." (it's the one with the flower sticker.) ("I didn't know the lockers had stickers underneath them," says every parent who witnesses this ritual. I don't think a lot of kids know either, as Willow is the only one I notice doing this.)

    8. Art work in one of the class rooms. It's hard to tell in this photo, but it looks like they coloured in a piece of paper, cut it into a circle, then cut up the circle like a pizza with lots of slices, and the slices became petals. They were really quite pretty and striking.
    9. to 13. Student's art work.

    14. Curtains in the canteen/ cafeteria/ another class room that I full intend on replicating one day. The other window had reds, oranges and yellows.

    15. View of the high school part of the school.
    16. Looking the other way, across the lake.
    17. Stalls.
    18. Cafe.
    19. to 22. Willow with the beetle she named Willow. She was devastated to not bring it home. She asked if it has a pa pa and a poh poh.

Willow's opinion of the school:
"They had a LOT of sticks there! I like sticks."
