Crafting Friday

 

I made this skirt and the tie appliques for St. Patty's, I'm glad I added the tulle.  Applique pattern found here.

I whipped out this tutu so I could show Mac (friend) how to do one...super easy, this is the tutorial I originally used when I first started making these last year.

A new Room

I finished the room/bedding for now. Poor Kreg always having to sleep in a girly room. I really had a different vision when I started this room, I first was using dark brown little buttons on the bed but, didnt like the stark contrast so my Mom suggested pearls, I am a SUCKER for pearls! It immediately turned fancy. So it went from little girly to more mature girly. I love it! I told Kreg when we get a house this can be the guest bed and he can chose our bedding and make it more manly. or maybe I will just make him a man cave all for himself where he can watch sports. But for now he can enjoy the "palace" (as he calls it)


The sheets are kind of a light aqua color, so I made this quick toss pillow to bring out some more of the blue. I told Kreg at least the sheets are blue, I could have done Pink.
Pretty lamp I got at the DI in utah, So glad I didnt let Mom buy it from me.
I used napkin rings we got at tai pan for the curtain holders
Upclose on the kissing pleats
I made the brown pillow in hopes to balance out the fancyness but Kreg said I ruined it when I put the flower on.

Sorry the pictures are horrible, I really should take some photography classes.

The beginning

Of a whole new look to my bed. I made a quick ruffle pillow(finally figured out how to do a ruffle on my machine!!) this morning to get me motivated to do the duvet. My cute Model HAD to be in a picture.

Book Page Wreath

My cute sister in-law Kim showed me this wreath at Christmas time and I am FINALLY getting around to making it. So easy. Although I may or may not be icing a few fingertips at the moment due to some hot glue mishaps. I didn't roll my pages instead did a little folding diddy. I wanted a messier/less perfectly placed look and I did mine less full. I don't like the way the pictures turned out ( the wreath is NOT that bright) I do however like the way the wreath turned out.

Found the Idea at Living With Lindsay

I've seen wreaths similar to this all around blog-land. I couldn't help myself! I chose to do a round wreath because then I could leave it up longer than v-day.

Got these cute buttons from Joann's for $1.12 I cut off the loop in back for the button and glued them to bobby pins. now I have cute hair pretties! I got another package of the buttons today to make a necklace.
