The theme for this weeks (and sadly, the last week) Project Run and Play challenge is your signature look. Yes this week was hard, especially since I am still figuring out what my signature look is. I like a lot of different styles and fabrics. I guess you could say my signiture look is a casual, comfy, easy wearing look with a little twist of sweet… Keep Reading
How to make toddler bracelets.
My little girls have been obsessed with bracelets since I made them a few weeks ago to match these dresses. I love the larger beads for them, but the larger beads are kinda pricey. So I was so excited when I found two adult necklaces at the thrift store the other day for some insanely cheap amount. Here are the necklaces I… Keep Reading
Our new baby chicks.
We got our 30 baby broiler chicks this week. Or maybe you already knew from all the squeals, screeches and aww’s that were heard. We have spent a lot of time holding, feeding and patting them. A lot of time! We even “tuck them into bed” at night. As you can imagine there are a lot of “good-nights” heard. I can’t blame them. I… Keep Reading
Project Run & Play sew along {week 5: At the movies}

Still in the works.
Apparently my Momma’s new blog is still in the works…much like my clothes for this weeks Project Run and Play challenge. I’m pretty sure she will work on her blog once my pants are finished. Sorry that some of her tutorials are not working and that she has no idea how to fix them. She is having the same problem with… Keep Reading
Dyeing Fabric

Now just remember I have only done this twice now. Once with the boxed powdered dye and once with the liquid dye. So I don’t know everything there is to know… Keep Reading
Trips up the road.
This weekend we headed out in search of some fiddle heads. But quickly ended our search when we saw these two geese swimming in Paul’s pond. It’s amazing how quiet three little ones can be when you tell them that they have to be quiet or else the geese will fly away. I’m gonna try that this weekend in church, think it will… Keep Reading
2T/3T Hooded Vest Tutorial
I’m posting my hooded vest tutorial here today just in case you missed my guest post over at Project Run and Play a few months ago. So I knew right away that I was going to share a tutorial for a hooded vest. A few months back I purchased a Gymboree hooded vest at the thrift store and my two little… Keep Reading
Fat Quarter Friday {guest post from Syzygy of Me}
I’m so excited about today’s Fat Quarter Friday and not because the post I wrote last night was never saved so I lost everything, but because Karen’s idea is brilliant and way better then what I had planned anyways. It is one of those “Now why did I think of that?!” projects. Trust me, this is brilliant! So let’s all welcome… Keep Reading
Project Run & Play sew along {week 4: color challenge}
This weeks theme over at Project Run & Play was a color challenge. I knew right away I was going to make something with orange. (I’m pretty sure you could have guess that as well.) I searched a few stores but I couldn’t find the right color orange, so I decided to dye some fabric orange. I planned on making… Keep Reading
