Spool dolls

I love love love The Nanny Goat blog! Melissa did a tutorial on how to make these darling spool dolls, and I just had to make them! So go check out her tutorial here!



Meet Mr. and Mrs. Danny!!!


I just had to make some little Elders. Aren't they darling?

Necklaces

So these are like those scrabble tile necklaces that are all the rage right now. I made some that were round with cool people on them. I have always adored Audrey Hepburn!


I have little thing for Vincent Price...but who doesn't? Ha ha.


Here is my, "Chopin" one. I know I know I am weird...



I made these out of washers and used a steel stamping set to stamp the letters. As you see it is the initials of everyone in my family as well as our birthstones.
I made these all for my sisters for Christmas with different sayings on them. I was most excited to give my one sister, Heidi hers because it said,"adoption" on it and her kids are all adopted!

Earring holder thingy dingys

I made these out of old frames from thrift stores. I wish I would have taken a before picture, but trust me they look much better now!

Painted shirts!

I made this really cute necklace shirt for my niece for her birthday! I liked this big pearl style. These were so easy to make, just t-shirt paint (like the puffy kind) and grab whatever round items you got and just play with it!


Here is another one I made for my other niece. I used the same technique with this one except I used freezer paper and paper punches to make the butterfly!


Here is a fun shirt I made for me! I used the same t-shirt paint, and then freezer paper. I drew the rose and traced the letters on the freezer paper. Then I used an exact o knife to cut them out, making a stencil. I then used an iron to iron on the freezer paper to the t-shirt. After that is the fun part! I painted everything black, let it dry, then put lace over it and lightly brushed silver paint over it. This is what gives it that cool look!
Next time I will do a tutorial.

Wooden Bowl!

I got this wooden bowl at a thrift store for $1 and I had a vision...and here is the vision come to life!
I spray painted it, mod podged different fabrics to it and then put another coat of mod podge all over it and there you have it!
It is now our candy/fruit bowl, more so candy bowl.

Ribbons and Buttons!

I Love love love, ribbon and BUTTONS... OH Buttons!!! That being said, I have TONS!!!! So I needed a cute way to display them in all there glorious beauty! I picked up both these beauties at a local thrift store (DI). I got the gumball machine for $3 bucks, and the cookie jar (is that what that is) for $5!

I thought these were a darling way to display my ribbons and buttons and they are also right there whenever I need them!

1st Post!

I have decided that I wanted to create a craft blog! This way I can log all my fun projects as well as keep up with all the other super cute craft blogs out there! I recently just opened an etsy shop, as a fun hobby! This will also keep you in the loop with that. I hope you all enjoy!
