By the time you read this Elizabeth and I will be knee deep in the mother of all craft fairs. Hopefully I'll have the rest of these skirts (in the picture above) finished...I still have lots of elastic to thread. Right now it's, well it's late late late Thursday night...and I need to get back to work. Only a few hours left until go time. Wish us luck. liZ PS---I think these skirts are my favorite thing we made for this weekend...I went a little crazy and made piles of iron on ... View the Post
$5 Friday—Well, Hello Doily
A little while ago I found a pile of random stuff in a bin in the craft room. Among other things I found this skirt. I made it a long time ago (like in January of 2011). It was during my season of putting doilies on everything (place mats, bulletin boards, bags, whatever held still...) Last night I went back and found the original post. The pictures are funny and not so awesome...especially the plugs hanging out of the wall in the background. (You can go check it out HERE ...but I ... View the Post

$5 Friday– Bowtie Flip Flops
We are a flip flop family in the summer. My kids have been counting down the days until they can wear flip flops (their school dress code doesn't allow them...and even though I have heard for weeks about how everyone else is doing it....we are trying to follow the rules.)But, summer is almost here!!!! YIPEEE!!! And that means it is flip flop time! I found flip flops recently for 98 cents (now that is a deal) and so I bought three pairs of pink for Hannah. And since I have a pink girl, I am in ...

Fringed and Slashed T-Shirts for $5 Friday
Ok I promise that these will be the last crazy T-shirt projects I post for awhile. Not forever, of course, but for a few weeks I'll put away my shirt stack and scissors and move on to some other projects. But for today.....today I've got two 80's inspired T-shirt projects in one post! So let's party like it's 1999 making: and Each of these T-shirts were purchased at the Dollar store making them only a $1 each. Then I brought them home and: Ok, I worded that weird---I didn't cut ... View the Post
