Miss Mousie's House

My Bestie and I were introduced to this story this past Autumn. ( I believe we first heard of it through Moments with Mother Culture, and Blueberry Cottage both found in my blog list)
What a delightful tale. After reading and re-reading our imaginations began to turn!

In this delightful story a little mouse gets lost, and as she's looking for home she comes across a curious nest in the tall grasses of the meadow. She climbs up and peeks in to see other mice living here. She's invited to tea and has a lovely time. She does learn a very important lesson about obeying her parents as she spends some time hiding in the dark until her parents find her.

So we began to imagine how could we re-create a Harvest Mouse house. I started with a large Christmas ball from Christmas Tree Store. With a little muscle I used an exacto knife to cut open the front and give her some windows. A view from the back Miss Mousie's living room, and loft bedroom with a view of the stars from her little bedroom window Looks like tea is ready in the kitchen nook, yum who wouldn't want some strawberry cake! Miss Mousie used a hymnal of unusual songs to paper the inside of her home, I wonder if she sings while she does her dishes? I hope you have enjoyed visiting Miss Mousie's House as much as I enjoyed creating it.                                    Blessings,                                    The Keeper
