2Sprouts!

Some stuff I have been working on for the new consignment store, 2Sprouts opening up in Texarkana Nov. 20th

Wallet Project

friends of ours, Alyssa and Austin Adams got married a few weekends ago! Austin asked GreenNeedle to make wallets for all his groomsman and ushers, 13 of them! It was a big project but very fun especially since it was for a great friend. They were all customized special for each guy. here they are some of my favorites...

Drab to Fab

Here are some upcycled projects I have been working on to sell at Paper Dolls, a consignment shop for woman in Texarkana.

I'm prego and it's a boy!!

Our family is so excited that we are having a boy!

no one was able to be with me at the doctors apt. so I had the technician write the gender of the baby down on a piece of paper and seal it in an envelope. I gave the envelope to our sweet friends, Matt and Kate Reynolds. That night they had us over for dinner, had us close our eyes and surprised us with these awesome it's a boy cupcakes!! We were all screaming with excitement, a moment I will never forget.

My first home made mobile

I am making crib bedding, and some other little things for my friend Jill's baby room! Here is the Mobile I made, its a cute owl theme for baby Emmy Ray. the fabric is the spotted owl from the Alexander Henry collection. I'll post the bedding after i'm done with it.

Update!

My husband and I finally painted our 3 year olds room and added a few more thing, its still a work in progress, only a few more little touches. here is the room so far..

I found some old embroidery hoops at a thrift store and hooped them with cute colorful matching and contrasting fabrics. And embroidered letters on three of them to spell out my daughters name.

My husband made this cute little art shelf for me! I got the idea off another blogger! http://www.frugalhomedesigns.com/ and i found the tin buckets in the dollar section at target.

Amelia in Wonderland!

I haven't blogged in forever so This is my attempt at catching up.. My oldest daughter had a Birthday in March, the theme was Amelia in wonderland! When they arrived the all received an apron with their name on it that I made and embroidered then into the back yard they went to play some Crockett. ha ha they had never even seen Crockett before, I found a set at salvation Army for $14.

Then they went inside for pizza and a movie. They watched the old school Alice in Wonderland that I found at a flea market for $2. They also received the rest of their goodies... a tea pot ring, bunny ears, and an Alice in Wonderland wand!

Then on to the main event! They had a "tea Party" but instead of tea and biscuits The girls enjoyed cupcakes, sugar cookies, and Chocolate milk.

I searched every thrift store and flea market for all the table decoration with the exception of some of the candles and holders that I bought at Hobby Lobby, on clearance of course. I covered the table with cute fabric and covered the back of the chairs with pillow cases I found at Salvation Army. I also found a bunny, little mouse, a cat that I took the face off of and made it look like the Cheshire cat. I struck gold at all the flea markets, finding all the cute mixed matched cups and saucers and tea pots. The cute invitation you see displayed on the table if made by my good friend Heather Carr, who does all my invitations, the cutest invites you have ever seen!
