Another Halloween project--sewing a simple applique on a t-shirt. It's been fun this year that my little guy is excited for Halloween, and this was a quick 15 min project that made his little day and served as a potty training prize. Luckily, things are clicking and I hope we'll be done potty training here in a few days! Anyway, here's our scary shirt to show...

Acrylic painting 12x12 on canvas I recently watched Nightmare Before Christmas and I just love that movie. Since I've been in Halloween mode lately, it was on the brain. My little guy wanted to paint, so I grabbed a 12x12 canvas I'd bought at Big Lots a while ago to make a quick simple painting for Halloween decor I guess. I know it's...
I know it's a little early, but my son has been really into Halloween lately, kind of his first awareness since he's only 2 1/2. I don't think he knows what the holiday will actually be, but whenever he sees any Halloween stuff in stores he yells and points. So I pulled out my few Halloween decorations early. I had made this birdcage...
I recently made a little trip home to my parent's house.While we were there, one afternoon I had to run a zipper over to Lynette at her shop in Provo, UT.She showed me around, I tried on her latest designs, and I learned quite a lot. For example, vintage dresses were designed to be altered?She had one she'd just finished and showed me...
Remember a while ago, I had a guest post on Ucreate? Well here it is on my blog too in case you missed it. Many different ideas combined to inspire this pillow. Here are a few: The pillows you can purchase here for $124 to $135. The fabric is from fabric.com HERE for $14.00 per yard. So I combined my fabric scraps and designed my...
This post is featuring a quilt made my mom. My son loves airplanes, and this is his new bedspread she made him. Amazing right? I had been collecting fabrics to make him a little quilt, and she said she'd been planning an airplane quilt too and wanted in on it. So I just mailed her the fabric I had and we talked about...
I've really enjoyed Leap Frog's educational DVDs, mainly the Letter Factory that teach sounds each letter makes . I've been looking online for flashcards that coordinate with the alphabet characters in the DVD for a while, and couldn't find any, so made some myself. So far they've been great, and I was actually surprised how many sounds my son knew from watching the DVDs. ...
