pendant banner

I've been wanting to make one of these for a while. The co-worker's 1 year anniversary turned out to be the perfect occasion. I love how it turned out. Best part is that it's reversible.

snack bags

Living in sugarhouse made me want to be green so when Bonny suggested reusable snack bags for craft day, I was so excited. They turned out incredibly cute even if they are a wee bit small. I can't wait to make more. Go here for the tutorial.

gumdrop wreath

My friend Bonny posted this right before the holidays. I went out and immediately bought all the supplies. I LOVE the all white but it turns out you need to have Martha Stewart budget to pull it off. I finally finished my wreath last night. It's heavy as heck and I'm still not sure how I'm going to hang it.

Supplies:
toothpicks (lots)
Gumdrops (lots-can be purchased in bulk at winco)
Styrofoam wreath

How to:
Break toothpicks in half
Put toothpick in gumdrop
Push toothpicks with gumdrop in styrofoam in rows or more clamped together(mine turned out more uniform than I expected)

redo


Before...turtleneck

After...t shirt

I saw an outfit yesterday on the mormom bachelor that I HAD to have immediately! I already own most of it and just needed the shirt. I even left work to try to find it. I found kind of what I was looking for (except it was a turtleneck) and took my I can make that syndrome to a whole new level. Check here and here for some tutorials. I can't wait to make more with cute flowers or ruffles or something.
