LAURA INGALLS WILDER / Little House on the Prairie / Upcycled / Scrabble Jewelry

Watching the show Little House on the Prairie was a regular event for many kids and households as I was growing up.  The show ran from 1974 - 1983!  Nine years...of Pa, Ma, Laura (Half Pint), Mary, Mr. Edwards, Nelly and all the rest.

The woman who wrote all the stories (including Little House on the Prairie) that transfixed so many girls through the years is, of course, Laura Ingalls Wilder.  The Little House on the Prairie show was based upon the family's time in Kansas, but the Ingalls actually moved many, many times.  Pa had a bit of wanderlust.

It's interesting that words that kept my attention when I was young still hold such sentiment.  As an adult, I have been fortunate to visit several of her home sites and they still hold an emotional connection.  To stand and see where Laura would watch Almanzo coming around the corner in the sleigh out of the town of De Smet is pretty amazing.

And when you look on the net, I'm not the only one interested in the life of this prolific author.  There are people writing about getting their children interested in Laura Ingalls Wilder, information pages and blogs -like this :-) .  An official Laura Ingalls Wilder website can be found here. 

She still captures the imagination of young and old.  She will forever, I think, be at the heart of American writing and pioneer living, as well as in the heart of Americans and the world.

It is to her and my love of her books that I have created this new bracelet.
