Spring Fun!



I love making flowers for the hair. I am in love with this satin petal flower.
It looks really good on who ever wears it.
I am really excited to make more colors and varieties!

My Inspiration


When I first became interested in Crafting I found an awesome book at the library that made me want to create everything under the sun.

I probably should have bought the book. Maybe I will ask for it for Easter or Christmas.

Seriously, I love her Mexican inspired art. She is so talented. I am not sure how Kathy comes up with her stuff. I want to send her a shout out and thanks for her inspiring me to do what I do.

Snow White Tutu

Don't you want to be 5 again?

I do!!!

When I saw this Tutu I gasped and then turned green with envy.

I ran out and spent my craft money on materials.

I was so excited to start on it when I got home,
BUT
(Oh and this is a BIG BUT)
I realized I don't have any matching thread!!!!!

My project will have to wait....
I even got my husband to watch the kids while I went to the store by
MYSELF!!!

I was so sad, but there is always tomorrow or the next day or the next day to start.

I got this wonderful idea from Ucreate

Baby girl announcement

My friend announced her baby by giving each of her family members a Valentine's candy box with a onesie that said, "Uncle Dave" with a heart. I thought what a cute way to announce their baby. I thought this would be a fun way to announce our little bundle of joy to our families.

Once again my craft funds were out!

I had to think fast so I could have my creation done before we Skyped with family later that evening. (This was a few weeks ago).

I found some white onesies, some tulle I had used on a tutu (that I never sold, so I took it apart), and some fabric paint. The only one I could find was glitter.

I used my Silhouette, that my wonderful mother-in-law and father-in-law gave me for Christmas, to cut the letters out on Freezer paper.

30 minutes later with quick sewing and painting I had these two beauties done.

My family (In my hurry no "A's" were done right)

My husband's family


We are only having one girl, but we showed the onesie as our way to tell the gender of the baby.
We had fun telling them and then posting on FB that it is a girl.

I love fun frugal crafts like this!
