Two posts in one week!!!

Wow! I am not usually a prolific poster. However, you can see that I am posting for the second time this week and I am amazed. Tomorrow I am going to post pics of a COOL project I am finishing tonight. I am posting the link to the project for you to enjoy now and I will post some pics of my finished project when it is done. I will be going to the store for elastic and then I can finish it.

This project is re-purposing a men's dress shirt into a girl's dress. I am making a 2XL men's dress shirt into a 4T dress for my youngest girl. I am also planning to make a 2XL into a nice summer tunic for my oldest girl. Here is the link to the original post that inspired me to go to the thrift store today and buy some men's dress shirts.

Shannon is not here right now so I can also raid his closet for those UGLY shirts that keep ending up on MY side of the closet. Watch out!!!

Love ya honey!

Loving Fall Decor!

I do not celebrate Halloween but Fall is my favorite season. It can be hard to decorate for Fall without getting jack-o-lanterns and other spooky stuff in the mix. This craft idea was SOOOO cute, it literally took me 10 minutes from start to finish and most of that was collecting the stuff I have laying around.

If anyone wants to do this and does not have branches, I'll be happy to share from my abundance.

The Sinamay Ribbon is my touch to the project, please go to Kaysi's Blog to see the tutorial on how to make them and see them with raffia ribbon!

Thanks for checking in with me. Enjoy!!
