Did anyone guess which project was mine on SYTYC?  It was the Painted Flour Sack Towel Skirt, and I got second place in that round!  This week’s theme is Upcycle, so go check out the great projects and vote for your favorite.  I really wanted to title this project “Girl’s Ombre Chevron Painted Flour Sack […]

DIY Library Bags

June 4, 2013

It’s officially Summer break at our house, so it’s time to think of things to keep the kids busy.  We will probably be taking a few trips to the library so, of course, we need some DIY library bags for all of our books. We like to make up stories that are frequented by knights, […]

“All About Me” Books

May 4, 2013

One of the mom’s from our preschool group had a great idea for mother’s day gifts… “All About Me” books.  For the days that we taught preschool, we made things that the kids could put into the books.  I don’t have Audrey’s final book yet, but I wanted to show you the pages that we […]

Dry Erase Treasure Map

May 1, 2013

My kids love to go on treasure hunts!  Usually our hunts consist of scrap pieces of paper with pictures or maps drawn on them.  I thought it would be fun to make something a little more permanent that still had an erasable line to follow.  It also needed to roll up like any good treasure […]

Butterfly Craft Idea – Shrinky Dink Suncatchers

April 5, 2013

It’s been a couple of weeks, and our nasty little caterpillars have turned into beautiful butterflies!  The kids had so much fun watching them grow, and I even learned some new things about them.  Did you know the caterpillar actually sheds the outside of it’s body to make the chrysalis?  SICK!  Go watch a YouTube […]

Googly Eye Earrings

April 3, 2013

I love googly eyes!  I secretly want to carry googly eyes around with me so that when the opportunity presents itself, I can eyebomb things.  This is one of my favorites from eyebombing.com. Hahaha!  Can you imagine walking down the diaper aisle to see this?! ANYWAY… when my friend’s daughter showed up to Kindergarten wearing […]

Caterpillar into Butterfly Craft for Kids

March 15, 2013

I do a lot of crafting FOR my kids.  In an effort to spend more time crafting WITH my kids, I’m starting a little segment that I’ll call Kiddie Crafts.  Today we’re gonna get started with a butterfly craft for the kids.  I love this craft so much!  When you are done, the kids are […]

Appliqued Superhero Capes

March 6, 2013

A friend of mine has three little superhero fans in her house.  I made them some of my superhero masks, and they, of course, needed some capes to go with them.  I used a higher quality felt this time around for the masks.  You can read my post about felt here.  For the capes, I […]

Leah’s Heart Party

February 18, 2013

Hard to believe my little Leah is already one!  To keep things easy, I chose a heart theme since her birthday is so close to Valentine’s day.  These ideas would also work for a Valentine’s party or baby shower.  We needed some heart garland, of course, so I cut some out of paper with my […]

Fixing Clothes

February 12, 2013

I was busy all last week getting ready for Leah’s first birthday party which was supposed to have been on Saturday.  Unfortunately my son was up sick the night before, so we had to postpone.  I had a little extra time on my hands to fix some of my kid’s clothes that had been ruined. […]

Muslin Tooth Fairy Bags with Fairy Embroidery Pattern

January 19, 2013

Evan is about to lose his third tooth, so it’s time to start thinking about the tooth fairy again.  You might remember, I already made him this bag last year.  I shouldn’t have used acrylic felt (see my post about felt here) so it didn’t hold up very well.  This time around, I decided to […]

Boy Birthday Crown and a Giveaway!

November 10, 2012

The boy version of my birthday crown is done! Just like my girl birthday crown, there are five interchangeable numbers, and it’s adjustable so your little boy can wear the same crown every year! It fits heads from 18 inches up to 21.5 inches around.  I’m fresh out of baby boy models around here, so […]

Baby Owl Hat

November 3, 2012

As promised, here are some photos of the fleece hat that I made for Leah’s baby owl costume. You needed to see the whole picture, so I got her dressed back up in her owl costume this morning.  (The Halloween night photos were all ugly with the bright flash.)  I found a free pattern here […]

DIY Baby Owl Costume Tutorial

After much deliberation, I finally decided that Leah was going to be an owl for Halloween this year.  I threw around lots of different ideas until I finally came up with this baby owl costume.  Follow this tutorial to make your own!

DIY Toto Dog

October 27, 2012

For Halloween this year, Audrey is going to be Dorothy.  She’s actually wearing the same costume that my mom made for me when I was a little girl!  Precious right?!  As I was searching the Halloween store for some ruby slippers to go with her costume, I came across this little Toto in a basket.  […]

Cute as a Button Baby Shower

October 22, 2012

My friend Lesley is due in about a month with her third baby.  My friend Tara and I threw her a baby shower this weekend since it’s going to be her first girl.  Girls are so much fun!!!  I saw these pictures from a pin on pinterest and had to do a button theme!  Check […]

Felt Birthday Crown with Interchangeable Numbers

October 7, 2012

I made a few adjustments to this birthday crown that I made for my niece, and now I am ready to show you how to make one yourself.  All you need is felt, velcro, and thread and/or embroidery floss.  Can you tell that I like felt a lot? The crown has interchangeable numbers and is […]

Superhero and Princess Cake Pops

July 30, 2012

The kid’s birthday party has come and gone.  I can’t believe I have a five year old who will be starting kindergarten in a couple of weeks!  While browsing around Pinterest for party ideas, I came across these superhero valentine lollipops with masks and capes. Then I just happened to come across this AWESOME video […]

Felt Superhero Mask Templates

July 16, 2012

Evan and Audrey’s birthdays are coming up, and since they are only a week apart, we just have combined parties for now. This year’s chosen theme is Superheroes and Princesses! I decided that the boys are going to get superhero masks, and the girls are going to get princess crowns that you can see here.  […]

Car Seat Canopy

July 8, 2012

My sister is due any day now with her second baby girl.  I decided that she needed a car seat canopy.  So much better than just draping a blanket over the seat!  I found this great little tutorial on creatively christy.  FYI, you will need about a yard and 1/4 of the top fabric.  I […]

DIY Baby Sling

February 20, 2012

I won’t have much time for crafting since my little baby girl, Leah, finally decided to make an appearance last week, but I wanted to show off what I made for her.  I used a combination of the tutorial found here on Babymoon Boutique along with instructions found here on the Maya Wrap website to make […]

Puppet Theater

December 24, 2011

Every time my niece comes over to play, she makes us drape a blanket between the couches so the kids can put on a puppet show.  I knew for Christmas that I needed to make her a puppet theater.  I was originally going to make her one of those theaters that hang in a doorway, […]

Hexagon Baby Quilt

June 15, 2011

What better reason to craft than for a baby shower?!  Here is my first attempt ever at making a baby quilt. I was feeling very purple the day I picked out the fabric.  Hope the mother to be likes purple too.  To make my hexagon baby quilt, I bought the following: 1/3 yard or one quilting […]

Easy Superhero Capes

June 9, 2011

Hello craft world!  I am back.  Finally feeling a bit inspired again.  Here is a little something that got me in the mood to sew.  Easy Superhero Capes! One of my kid’s favorite things to do is “fly” around the house.  Blankets tied around their necks wasn’t cutting it anymore, so I took the leftover fabric […]

Free Quiet Book Patterns

December 8, 2010

I made this quiet book for my son, Evan, on his third birthday.  I wanted something different from the average quiet book with zippers and buttons.  I had a ton of felt left over from another project, so I made my book from that.  I suggest making it out of something else if you plan on washing it.  At […]
