Burlap Christmas Pillow

I realize it's pretty much Christmas, but I'm going to try to squeeze in a few Christmas posts about some decor and outfits I've made! First is a Christmas pillow. Burlap, gighgam and red goodness folks! Alex thinks this is a totally stupid pillow since it's not usable. He doesn't understand decorating! I also made a "Merry" one but once I saw how long this one was I decided it was enough. Maybe next year I'll stuff it and use them both. One on each couch in the living room maybe?






Funny story, I tired to paint these really fast while both kids were awake. Bad idea, in my hasty get it done state I misspelled Christmas. Yeah huge craft fail and total retard I know! Do any of you ever do stuff that you look at and think "wow what a retard"? Alex thought it was pretty funny!

I made Sydney her Christmas outfit today, now she has one for Christmas Eve and Day, I'll post them both this week. Random off topic note tomorrow she will be one! Really tonight while I'm sleeping she will officially be one. Wow! It's so bittersweet. Look out for a totally sappy momma post about my baby girl tomorrow!

Hand Prints

Don't you just love your kids tiny little hands!
They grow so fast, but those little fingers and toes are just so small and cute!
 I never want to forget the little things.

I love the idea of hand prints.
 We use them for cards, wrapping paper, I'm always painting those little fingers for hand prints!

Check out my latest decor addition!



It's a family of hand prints!
I love it!
Colorful, unique, us!


Sydneys is a little blurry, but oh well!


Nathans


I love looking at it!

Flower Head Band

There so many adorable flower head bands out there these days it's almost overwhelming!
 I made Sydney this simple sinlge felt flower head band in no time!
If you want a tutorial on it let me know!
 It was super easy and I think it turned out super cute!





She wasn't in a picture taking mood, can you tell!
She was much more interested in that ball!
Oh well!

Saint Patricks Day

So here is one of the projects I have been working on for Saint Patricks Day.

I made this wearth.
It is just a twine wearth wrapped in burlap,
 then I made the bunting and the flowers!
Little hot glue vota bing, vota bam!
Saint Patricks Day wearth!



I've got Sydneys outfit ready for photos
But Nathans isn't finished yet!
So the pictures of those are still to come!
Plus I'm not really in to much of a hurry to have him hold her for a photo opt!
Gotta make sure that cold is good and gone before any cuddle time for the baby!

The outfits are pretty funny and cute so be sure to check back for them!
