Poinsettia images for homeschooling – free use for you. Created on Canva

Ideas for these images:

These images are meant to be poetry backgrounds which you can use to add any type of text to such as you can create greeting cards, images, your own social media posts, add quotes to, or use in any of those ways for homeschooling.

If you are a homeschooling parent who can use these graphics, then download all of the ones that you like and present one to your child, ask them to get inspired and see if they create something with it.

My daughter Lilli is not writing poetry into these right now but she is using them to create greeting cards, poetry backgrounds, they can be used for memes, jokes, anything.

In homeschool, they can be added as pops of color to any Christmas materials.

  1. Download the background
  2. Add your text on top
  3. If possible, share your creation back on X @evelovestar

If you or your child create something creative, consider sharing with us.

Athena paper doll and Greek historical fashion

Dear reader,

I didn’t want to share my Athena paper doll because the fashion illustration was historically inaccurate.  It was silly, so here it is in its imperfect glory.

Athena paper doll by Eve

Minerva was Athena in Rome

Atenea is Spanish

Atena in Italian

Since Athena’s name is extremely ancient, the sound of the letter Eta (uppercase Η, lowercase η) has changed in the thousands of years of Athena’s reach. This is why she has been Athena, Athene. I have to look more into this because I also saw her name spelled with an Alpha at the end, which corresponds to our modern Athena.

This dress turned out wrong, attempted a tied look on the waist, but the skirt should be pleated and fall at her sides.

Now that I have shown you my defective work, I will have to finish it. I have a second page where I stopped. It has a shield and another dress that also made me feel I had done a poor job.

Ancient Greek fashion

The ancient Greeks didn’t have sewing machines. They used fabrics and tied them into dresses.

Even in Rome, dresses called Stolas in Latin (the equivalent of togas for males) were very large tied fabrics.

The reason why my design is wrong is that it doesn’t look tied, which should give a very pleated look that fell very close to the body.

I tried, but I created a modern look, which is alright, but I will try my hand at this again.

This image of Athena was AI created. Lilli put this together on Canva.

I will perfect this design, and we will talk more about ancient Greek clothing. The next paper doll will be better, I promise.

Of course, you can print this one and use it in your homeschooling practice.

With Love,

Eve

Songwriting: Give me my guitar

Dear reader,

This is a cool song I wrote many years ago.

I have a very old video singing it. I will not show you because it was too awful.

But, I created the lyrics for the song in a better way today.

I am looking for singers or musicians to sing this or any of my other songs. Just ask and I will allow you to.

Lilli is creating a Pandacorn (my newest song) animation right now which is simply adorable.

With love,

Eve
