Stuffed Animal Sleeping Bags

My nieces love stuffed animals, so I made them each a stuffed animal sleeping bag. Not my neatest sewing because I took shortcuts on the edges, but I think 2 little girls will be happy with them!







Edit: Here's a photo of it in action!


Sewing Saturday

I hadn't pulled the sewing machine out in quite a while. I absolutely had to get Christmas presents done for my nieces and nephew... I feel like the white rabbit - I'm late! I'm late! One of my presents is a car holder like the one I made for E. The other projects are in the next 2 posts!

Wall Quilt

I've had this done forever, it just needed to get on the wall. I had a space in the kitchen and I just wanted a simple quilt square to hang there. I love the colors, they match the kitchen well!

Toy Workbench

My dad and Cam did the building on this project, I just gave them a little input about what I wanted. I painted it all and added the vinyl hammers and screwdrivers (thank you cricut!). I love how it turned out, and E hasn't stopped playing with it and all his tools!


Christmas decoration

At our church activity they had extras of these vinyl words, so I decided to make a quick little decoration. I painted the board, put scrapbook paper on, added the word, and then tied some ribbon on. Easy peasy!


Nativity Board

I saw the vinyl for this project on sale on a blog, and I ordered a few sets. She had used it for separate pieces for stocking holders, but I wanted to use it for one big board. I love how they turned out - if I had only ordered a few more!

It was a very quick project - stain the board, rub a candle on the edges, paint the board, sand to distress, put the vinyl on!

Winter Baby Shower

My co-worker and I threw a baby shower for another co-worker. She's having a girl, so we had a pink and silver winter themed shower. It turned out great, and we had a blast putting it together!

I made the invites with a pink snowflake background:


The food was delicious! So much yummy stuff! And aren't the little label cards cute?


A view of all the food.


Drink table with ornaments on the window. Love the silver tree too.

The best cake ever. Swiss chocolate cake.


Gift table and our clothesline

Last minute we realized that we didn't have anything for Nicole to wear, so I improvised and came up with this really cute snowflake pin.
