Hannie wanted to make some gifts for her friends and we needed some gifts for some tween and teen cousins, so we sat down one afternoon and made a couple of presents. Felt bow rings for Hannie's friends and a necklace and ring set for the cousins. I ordered all the supplies off etsy or ebay and they are super reasonable.....and if you don't want to put felt bows on them....you could do anything you want on the front of them. We got 20 ring backs for about $5 (they are even cheaper in larger ... View the Post
Thrifted Thursday: Peg Doll Canvas Tutorial
Ok, so everyone knows that I'm crazy about peg dolls so it should seem just about right that I figured out how to hang them on my walls. I promise one day I'll give up the Peggies. But that day is not today and today I'm sharing how to make peg doll canvases. What does this have to do with "Thrifted Thursday"? Well, I made this little lady out of thrifted fabric and am planning on making some more out of some other, more obviously thrifted (and 60's) fabric. Anyways, if you want to make ... View the Post
Suspenders Tutorial
This morning I realized that I never posted the suspenders tutorial I made for Project Run and Play on on our blog so.......since #1 suspenders are on my mind (due to the fact that I'm making some red ones for Grace this week) and #2 I've spent all my spare time talking to Elizabeth about our super exciting news (which we will be sharing VERY soon) instead of sewing I give you the suspenders tutorial. I love suspenders. I think it comes with being a product of the 80's and the fact that I had ... View the Post

Last week I made some of these for our girls. And I love them. Practical? Not really. But I say who cares! I only have my little girls for a short while and I plan on loving every minute, whether it's practical or not. So if your like me and your heart skips a beat when you see your daughter all dressed up then follow these instructions to make a perfectly impractical headpiece just like this one. Here's what you'll need: *A small kitchen trivet. (I bought mine at the dollar ... View the Post
Boy’s Pajama Shirt Tutorial
Here is the tutorial for the boys' pajamas that we used in Project Run and Play last week. I made another pair for this little cutie and took some pictures this time. Can I pause for a minute to tell you how much I love this kid? And how his adoption was such a miracle. Truly. I really need to tell you all the stories, but I have just been keeping them in my heart for a year now. They need to be shared, but I feel so protective of his birthmomma, who loves that little boy dearly and made ... View the Post
Make Your Own Crayons
This was a fun project that I saw for the first time over here and since I love activities like this we just had to try it out. It was easy, fun, and even educational. First I bought a rubber ice tray at the dollar store that we filled with the naked, broken crayons from the crayon bin. Next we took the ice tray and put it in our experiment pan (I know the pan looks rough but it gets a lot of serious non-cooking use). Then we put the pan out on the dashboard of the mini van, shut the door, ... View the Post
