Today we decided to make a Colonial Mob Cap although Goosey decided that she didn't like how it fit :oP I thought it looked cute for our end of unit celebration which is coming up here real quick! I cut out the circle for her and then cut the slits with a rotary cutter. Then she threaded a ribbon all around and pulled to make the cap. It was really easy to make! Goosey also made wax seals. We did a simplified version by using a candle and carefully dripped the wax onto paper and then created a stamp by using a block of clay. For part of Speedy's end of unit project, he has been researching how wax seals are made and why they were used. We ordered a wax sealing kit so that should be interesting to see the difference when using a real set rather than just a regular candle (I think there is a whole science behind that)!
