koozies and key chain

A friend of mine gave me this idea a while back and I have been wanting to try it, she got it from another blog that when I find the link again I will post here, it was so easy and fun to make, I will have them for sale if anyone is interested in one of these, I think they make a very cute gift.

I used the starbucks cup sleeve, traced it and monogrammed my initial. I will try to make one soon to fit a can of soda as well.
And I finally made myself a key chain, I had made them for gifts but had not had the chance to make one for me, I really like it, its perfect to put on my wrist while Im loading the car, etc. and it;s so much easier to find my keys in the bag!

I will have a give away with this items soon!
I always enjoy decorating for parties! This time I hosted a baby shower and it was a jungle theme, I think the colors and patterns made it look so much fun :)

Purplicious Birthday party

cupcakes, heart shaped sugar cookies, etc

Purple icecream from "purple cow" a huge hit with the kids, they loved it!! well, and the adults too :)
I was sad I didnt get a good shot of the Happy Birthday banner I made, it's very simple, I made it out of construction paper, ribbon and twine.

My daughter has always loved the color purple so she requested to have a "Purplicious" birthday party! it turned out super cute, that table looked so much cuter in person. I even found a purple pinata at Walmart too, perfect!! I made most of everything else for the party to save some cash! I was so proud that I spent less than $150 on this party and it looked so cute, the most important thing is that my girl loved every bit of it!!

ruffle capris

A friend asked me to make this super cute ruffle capris for her little girl, I have never made them this way but I was excited about this challenge, I have seen many girls wearing them lately and I think they look just precious in them so I made them and here is the end result, I dont think they look as cute just hanging plain by themselves but now that I know I can make them I will make some for my own little girl and take some pics of her wearing them and I'll share!

crib bedding

I dont usually make crib bedding because they are alot of work but occasionally I do it for some friends.....a while back one of my close friends asked me to make the crib bedding for her little girl, I was so excited to put this together for her because I just fell in love with the fabrics!! so much fun and so different than the traditional baby colors and prints. It turned out very cute, I think!
