Cardigan Update

I bought this chocolate cardigan in the clearance section at Gap! I have been wanting one for a long time. Well, something about it reminded me of my grandma and I was NOT excited to wear it. So, I took matters into my own hands and turned it into a delightful updated cardigan.

I made some flowers from satin, small pearl beads, and tulle.

I hot glued them to pins.

 Here is a view of it. I think it turned out perfect for my taste:)

It's a Girl

A friend of mine just gave birth to a little girl!

The baby has a big sister, so I made 2 pink flowers (one of them is bigger) so the girls could have matching clips! I also added a purple and blue one for the wee little lass and I made a pacifier clip.


I also made 2 burp cloths for her. One of them was thinner than I would have liked, but I was trying to use up some scrap material I had.

I think she will like it! Congratulations!

I'm Back!

Well, I am back and ready for business. I spent a total of, wait for it, 34 hours driving in a car. Ugh! Let's just say, I am sooooooooooo glad to be home.
Let me give you a tour of my car of spending so much time in it with 2 kids- by myself I might add. Hubby didn't come on this trip.

Here is my stash of food and toys to hand to the kids when ever they got restless. It worked like a charm. My kids do AMAZING on the ride.


Toys and food got tossed to the floor once the kiddos tired of them.


I gave all my presents to my preggy sister so I can now officially post the pictures. Let me show you what I have been up to.

I put silky blue material on the other side. My kiddos LOVE silky, so I felt my nephew HAD to have silky too! I put an owl applique on front using THIS pattern.



Here is the front. At the time I took the picture, I couldn't find the green ribbon I was going to use to make the straps. The orange and white polka-dots is where the straps are going to be attached. The ribbon had a button hole and a button which you wrapped around the handle so the baby stayed covered, but you could still grab the handle. I used THESE instructions.


I made a little baby cozy. I got the idea from HERE. I just used 1 yard and cut the fabric out to the shape in the picture. I had to sew a 8 inch strip in the middle to make it bigger, but I think it just added to the charm of the blanket.


You fold the bottom over the feet, and wrap the 2 sides around so the baby is in a little cocoon. Notice, the same owl applique. I was going for matching. I think this one was cuter.


Applique onesies. A tie, airplane, rocket, and argyle. I made the airplane and argyle up and the pattern for the tie, guitar (on bib) and rocket can be found HERE and HERE (note: you have to download the rocket pattern by clicking on the page on right side of screen).


A guitar bib. It has a plastic covering so it can just be wiped off. Plus, I put 3 snaps so it can be adjusted as the baby grows.


I covered this cute little diaper wipe case and made a diaper caring case, using THESE instructions from Make it and Love it.


This is the inside lining of the diaper case.


I made 2 bags. My preggy sister got to choose which one she liked best.
This is bag number 1. I embellished the outside with a ribbon that wrapped around the hole bag and ended with a big bow.


This is the inside. Both bags have the same inside.


This is bag number 2. I just used 2 place mats for the outside. The base is some thick brown fabric. I added a liner, handles, a snap closure, and the cute flower. The handles were super easy. I just used 4 D-rings and 8 eyelets. The eyelets were used to secure the D-rings. Plus, it adds some character to the bag.

Baby Gifts

I have so many family members and friends that are pregnant right now. So, I have been making baby things lately.

I made these pacifier clips. Too cute! The girly one matches a hair bow I made.


I made some more flowers and a hair bow.


These sweet little clips were made from rose buds that I took apart. I got a close up of them, because I have fallen in love with them. They are perfect for a newborn and for little girls hair that is still coming in.


Last but not least, I put appliques on these blankets. A car and an airplane.


I haven't decided who gets what. I will probably let the family pick what they want and then give what is left over. Plus, there is still more to come, but I haven't finished all of my projects yet!

Baby Gift

My sister in law had a little girl in Sept. They named her Daisy. I haven't seen her yet, but am planning a little trip this week to Tucson to visit. I made these sweet little onesies for her. Her name inspired the designs;)


I did 3 ruffles on the butt too! So cute!


I added some bling to the onesies. Every girl needs some bling!


I also got a HUGE box full of flowers for $5 at a garage sale. So, I made a few flower clips for the Daisy and her 4 1/2 year old sister as well!

Shoes, a Girls 2nd Best Friend

My friend taught me how to make over shoes. Last night I had a little girl night and we covered shoes. Warning: the fabric dries darker and I didn't realize that so I ended up with it looking more black than I planned.






All you need is a little mod podge and fabric. I am not finished yet. I am going to add a buckle on the top for embellishment, but I was really excited and wanted to share the fun!

An Array of Crafts

I took these photos and never posted them. I did some applique onesies for some friends having baby boys! They turned out really cute! I got the patterns for the guitar and tie from 'Trey and Lucy'. The rocket ship and octopus patterns are from 'Crap I've Made'


If you google bath bombs, there are a million cites that have a recipe for them. I decided to try my hand in making some for a 'Thank you' present. I just used cookie cutters and napkin rings for my molds. (Tip: make sure to take them out of the mold within a few minutes.) I waited and it was really hard to remove the mold and some wouldn't even come out.




I made these flowers for a friend. She wanted some cute hair barrettes for her 3 year old.


Medium: color pencils.
I did this for my nephews. I got some ideas off of Rosenberry Rooms. They turned out really cute.
