PAPER OWLS!

I made owls for my classroom next year!

Another Wreath!

I made this wreath for my principal who is retiring at the end of the month.  I tried to make it in the school colors (navy & yellow), but I ran out of yellow ribbon/fabric!

A Wreath!

My good friend, Sue, is moving to Portland :( Sad face.  I made her a wreath to take with her though!

Ribbon Flowers!

Okay these are the easiest to make, BUT the hot glue gun hates my guts!

More Fabric Flowers

I found some templates to make more flowers.  I think I like these more, but I keep burning myself with the hot glue gun!

Fabric Flowers!

So I've been reading up and studying how to make fabric flowers for my mother-in-law because I wanted to make her a wreath for Mother's Day. After scouring the interwebs, I finally came up with something. I followed the easy tutorial, and an hour later (not her fault but my inability to be crafty), I had pretty button flowers.  I sort of threw together the tulle one.  I kind of mushed it together and hot glued the thing.  PS - Hot glue burns like you would not believe..especially under your nail!  My lovely husband wrapped the wreath with turquoise yarn, then I wrapped it with some white ribbon.  Here is the finished product!  Not gonna lie, I'm really proud of myself!

Valentine's Day!

I saw this on Pinterest and knew I had to try it out!  I got a tissue box, painted it, and added egg carton pieces to the top.  I found some googly eyes to stick on it, cut some teeth from white construction paper, and voila, a Valentine Monster Box!

Seed Stitch Scarf Part 2

I made a scarf for my good friend, Sue! It only took about 10 hours of NCIS :) Check it out!

I'm working on a scarf for a friend of mine!  Look how far I've gotten!

Seed Stitch!

I finally learned how to seed stitch! I took me over 3 hours and 4 YouTube videos to figure it out, but I finally got it!!!
