Christmas Apron

I had a friend contact me about making a Christmas Apron for her Mother-in-law. I had a lot of fun with this one!

She wanted it really elegant and classy! When I saw these fabrics, I knew they were perfect! I love the Damask with the Stripes! It also has some gold accents in there! I love it!

I added a little ribbon up top, just to give it a little Sass! My friend had an apron that she wanted it patterned after and it had ric rac, but I thought the velvety ribbon made a better statement!

Every apron needs a little pocket!
What a fun project...once I got started last night I couldn't stop, it didn't take too long though! ;)

Simplistic Nativity Set


I just recently finished this nativity set. My friends and I decided it was time to start our Christmas craft projects and this was our first one! I still didn't have a nativity and saw this post and decided I needed to make a set!

After we finished this set of Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus....I wanted an entire set! We decided to make 3 WiseMen,

One Angel,

and 2 Shepherds with a Sheep,

We decided to incorporate twine into each item, so there was a common thread throughout the Nativity! I absolutely LOVE how this set turned out!
If you are interested in purchasing a set you can get it here at my etsy shop! Let me know if you are interested for a special discount! ;) Also, if you want to paint a set, I am selling the raw sets, so if you are interested in that, let me know as well! :)

Trick or Treat Burlap Banner

So....its taken me a while to post this one...its been done for a really long time! ;) My sister and a couple friends decided a while back that instead of just pinning on pinterest we wanted to actually start making the things we saw! We saw this and decided we need to make one...of course we changed it up a bit.

I was thinking I should have done a tutorial for this one, but then when I just added the link and it was on etsy.com I decided, I'm glad that I didn't! We had a lot of fun making these though and they were pretty simple and cheap...what we usually go for! ;) Happy Halloween!

Paper Bag Skirt

Here is a picture of her in it...its not the best, but she just wasn't cooperating all that well to get a great shot of her in it! :)

I saw this post a long time ago and really want to make one for my daughter! I had this creamy white corduroy skirt, but I got some road splashed all up the back of it on a rainy day and could never get it out.....SO....I decided to change it into an adorable skirt for Nik!

I haven't got any great pictures of her in it yet, but I hope to soon! :) If you want to make one too....Christie from Lemon Squeezy Home did a Wonderful Tutorial on the link above!

Lined Paper Tee

So my sister enlisted me in making this T shirt for my nephew Deagan, since he is going to Kindergarten this year! We decided to make this Lined Paper Tee...I got the idea originally from here.
We decided to add a little extra touch and put his name on there....just like he writes it! :)

Halloween Wreath

We have decided to start early on Halloween Decorations, because I don't have any...at all....I know SAD!  So I started off with this wreath! 
 It was SUPER Easy!  I just took black tulle and tied it around my wreath all around!  Then I got some wooden beads and painted them white and added the eye balls and attached them with pipe cleaners.  It was perfect, because then the eyeballs didn't turn at all!  Then I painted my EEK green and sprayed it with a little bit of glitter! 
Have you started any Halloween Decorations yet!?
