After Holiday Project











So Christmas is over and I am trying to work on a few projects I wanted to get done, but the Christmas crafting took up too much time and space, so I am now finally getting some non-holiday projects completed. Here is my first-sooo excited!! It is a portable fabric high chair! Isn't the model adorable?? I first heard of these a year or so ago from my aunt Brenda and since I have wanted to find a pattern and make one. I love it!! I am hoping Jackers loves it too!! I am thinking (hoping) it will be great to keep in the car for times when I need him strapped in! Also wouldn't they be nice gifts?? or even for grandma's house so she doesn't have to keep the big bulky one she only gets out when your there! The possibilities are endless!!!!!

post your own DIY over at Kimbas!

Tea and Cookies, Anyone?



I love Felt! No raveling, not bias-such a friendly fabric!!! I know I have been MIA on this here craft blog, but that isn't because I haven't been crafting. On the contrary I have been crafting away and just haven't had time to post. Life has been crazy, busy, if you read our family blog you know why! But these latest felt foods were just too cute to not post. Also I have 4 kiddos between the ages of 18 months and 7 all asleep-shh I can hardly believe it!
I also have before and after hutch pictures to post-but not right now-I need to get crafting!!!! 3.5 days and counting! Head over to Kimbas and post your own DIY!

Thanks, Martha


Sorry I have been MIA this week-there has been a lot going on and little time to blog. I am happy to report that thanks to Martha I have this years Christmas ornaments done. I typically don't like her crafts-it's my personal belief that she throws a twist in there so you can't get them to look like hers! But now that she doesn't actually write or design most her craft they are definitely more "doable." In the latest issue there were these sweet little holly leaf pins, but since I don't have a girl I just kind of oohed and awed. However I kept going back to them. So I decided to make one for a pillow and then really liked them so I am making them into this year's ornaments. You can down load the pattern at her website.
