Pirate Cake

This was a cake I made for my boy a while back.  It was fun adding all of the details.  Also, it is extra delicious being homemade.

Napkins

While visiting my daughter as she ate lunch at school, I discovered...she sets her food on the TABLE!?!  Eew!  We both decided it was time to make some napkins.  

Napkins are all over lately.  In Martha Stewart Living, the book Bend the Rules Sewing, and on the Purl Bee.  That is where I found this tutorial for napkin making that explains how to make beautiful napkins.  I would never have thought to do it this way!  The only difference for mine is that I made them 12x12 in.

P.S. This was so easy, we will be making more.  ;)

paper project finished

The paper topiary is finished!  The papers are KI Memories.  This project was made easy with the help of my Making Memories circle cutter tool.  I found the project here: http://www.heatherbailey.typepad.com/

Baby Showers

It may be a little early to say this, but spring is coming.  We are all looking forward to it, because it's been a cold winter!  Spring time makes me think of new life and baby showers.  Here is a picture of some favors I made once for a baby shower.

These are oreos dipped in white chocolate and then a little foot was painted on the cookie with pink chocolate.  Each cookie was placed in a mini cellophane bag and tied with ribbon.  This was when I had way too much time on my hands.

Wee projects

Here are some Wee projects you probably haven't seen.  They are from weewonderfuls.com  The first is a wee bunny.  She was made last easter.  The doll's name is Olive and she was made this summer.  I am such a fan Hillary's things.  She has a tutorial for pointy kitty that I think I'll make next.  Maybe for this easter. :)

wreath

Here is a wreath that hangs near my front door.  The idea is similar to one done by Making Memories.
