Peek - A - Boo

Did someone say that spring starts tomorrow - March 20th?


One More Pinterest Project

So I found yet another interesting piece of artwork on the Pinterest website and had to give it a try.  Mine is a tad different, because I actually made most of my petals the same size and used a lot less than the one I used as my example.  All in all I am very happy with the results.

Flip Flop Hangers.....NAILED IT

These little practical hangers were another idea I found on Pinterest.  Not the easiest in the world to make (my hangers were not of the flimsy variety) so it took quite a lot of strength to bend them into shape.  All in all, just LOVE them and they do keep my flip flops organized..

Burp Cloth Idea from Pinterest

So our first granddaughter will be arriving in just about 14 days and I came across this neat idea to perk up burp cloths.  It was a tedious task and I had a little problem with the cloths themselves stretching so things are just a tad less than perfect.  All in all I am happy with how they turned out.





The sample I saw on Pinterest used ribbon for adding the color, I just bought some fabric and made my own colored stripes.  Took a little longer, but less expensive than buying ribbon.

Lock and Key Swap

These are the ATCs I made for the Lock and Key Swap.  They are being sent to Veronica in Maryland.  AND.............................

These are the Lock and Key ATCs I received from Veronica.  Not sure where the lock or the key is on the heart card, but that is the luck of the draw.

Pinterest Repost from "the 3 R's blog"

This is a little paint chip art project I tried and am very happy with.  Instead of trying to glue those little strips down, i completely covered my base with double sided tape and went from there.  Pretty easy.  The thing I had a hard time with was cutting all of those skinny strips.  All of them did not turn out perfect, but good enough for my first try.
