Some pictures for your pleasure...

So remember when I said I didn't have enough time for my projects? Well, today I got a little sidetracked and took Miss Hayden's 4 month portraits up on our terrace. I figured since I didn't have any pictures to post of anything yesterday, I'd give you a sweet face to look at today :)

Many New Projects to Come

I feel like I have so much to do with so little time! My friend is hosting a local boutique next month, so I'm trying to get ready for it, only I have orders for people that I need to finish first, so I have a lot of fun projects on the back burner. I'm not complaining because I love new orders and I love creating things to sell at the boutique, I just wish I could lock myself in a room all day and actually have that time to myself ;-) But-- you and I know that life with kiddos is hectic and my only time to work on things is when they're sleeping. I did, however, make it over to Party City today for some cute containers to wrap things in-I'll post it all when I finish :) I also bought some Easter activities I can do with Mia in the upcoming weeks. Will post again soon with projects and pictures to share...

Our Jewels for St. Patrick's Day


I just finished these necklaces for Mia and I to wear on St. Patrick's Day. Aren't they cute? Unfortunately the colors don't look as pretty in the pictures, but at least you get the idea. It's fun to have Mommy Daughter necklaces :)

How Cute Are These?

Ok, it's official-I'm addicted to making these cute felt food goodies! I was so happy when I came across this tutorial on how to make these oh so yummy chocolate covered strawberries. They're so gourmet and perfect for tea parties! Thanks to Honey Girl Studio I was able to make my own :) If you'd like to make your own calorie free treat, click on the tutorial link to visit her blog. I definitely plan on making more!

Shamrock Baby Legs

Love these! Such a quick easy project :) I love that I can throw these on Miss Hayden with a plain onesie and it adds so much. Last night I actually put them on her to wear to bed because it was too hot for a regular sleeper, but I didn't want her to get chilled at all with just a onesie. It also made it a lot easier to change her diaper in the middle of the night since I didn't have pants to pull down in the dark :)

Felt Thin Mint Clover Cookies


I've been thinking about these cute cookies since last month and finally got around to making them last night and finished today. I'm really happy with the way they turned out. I didn't have a clover stencil so I had to draw my own which took a few tries before I liked the way it looked. I used chocolate brown and dark green felt from WalMart. The brown felt looks almost black in the picture I know ;-) I haven't seen any thin mint clover cookies anywhere else, and hopefully you haven't either. There are so many creative minds out there, so I'm not the only one that has come up with the idea of St. Patrick's Day cookies, but like I said, I haven't seen any chocolate ones with clovers :) I'll be posting more green projects soon!

New Project In the Works

So sorry I haven't posted anything new since Sunday! These last few days have been filled with things I don't want to do, LOL, so I haven't been able to get around to the things I do want to do...I've started a new cute St. Patrick's Day project that hopefully I'll be able to finish and post tomorrow. I've actually made some clover baby legs too that I still need to post. I've fallen a bit behind, but don't worry, I'll get my act together and will post some fun St. Patrick's Day goodies soon! Be patient with me ;-) Thanks to everyone who leaves comments! It just absolutely makes my day when I hear from you!
