One of Stephanie Sliwinski's favorite parts of her families homeschool journey was reading aloud to her boys. They read all sorts of literature together, and while they all sparked wonderful conversation, one that stood out was Aesop’s Fables. With lessons to be learned, her family would quickly know what role a fox, crow, hare, owl, and more might play in these short stories. They enjoyed how folklore and fables humanized animals to teach a lesson.

So, from times past (and with a modern bend), Folk & Lore takes a lighthearted approach to the art of traditions and stories passed down. You’ll find scandi- and folk-art inspired florals, a nod to block printing, and you’ll walk in a forest of animal friends. You’ll toss some leaves in the air while still enjoying some of the classics. Both the warm and cool palettes in this collection play off each other nicely, and I hope you love creating with Folk & Lore!
