Happy days....

It's a day to celebrate.......today is our
BLOG-iversary!
One year and still going strong
(well with bumps and bruises along the way)

Thanks for reading all the fun things we create and discover.

Fabric flowers

Remember this cute shirt?

Here's how I made the flowers.

These are strips of old shirts.

wrapped the pink strip around and around to create the rose. I glued little spots as I went around to hold the fabric together.

On the back I added a small circle piece of jean (again jeans that had holes) to hold the flower together better.

Here is my design to add to the shirt. I sewed the green strips to the shirt and then sewed on the flowers. My girls love there new shirt (thank goodness they share clothes and I didn't have to make two)

changes will happen

This is a pile of old shirts.

For a while I have been collecting old shirts that have no more use. Spots, holes, stains you name it they have at least one if not more of those things. Well I decided to use them as material.

Here is one of my projects...Stained area on shirt


I used an old green shirt and light pink shirt so come up with this.

I absolutely love this idea! So clever.

St Patricks Day wreath

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Here is a little something I came up with one afternoon.

Used my Cricut to cut out the circles and the scalloped edge circles. Made the back paper all the same size and adjusted the others for each lettered area to get the different effect I wanted.

I used things I had on hand so ....NO COST! =)

I used eyelets on the edges then used ribbon to hold each letters together to create "lucky"




But my favorite thing is that it fits in a quart size ziploc and I can keep all my door wreaths together in one spot. ( I have a clear tote for all my wreaths)










Hope your feeling LUCKY........have a great day!

St Patrick's Day simple treat

This sweet little treat was delivered to my house last week. So simple and so sweet, my children loved getting something in the mail first of all and second of all having something to eat....they loved it!

St Patrick's Day idea

She used a piece of paper stamped with a shamrock wrapped around candy. What a sweet idea that doesn't cost very much. (well if you hand deliver it) Perfect idea for your little ones or someone who you should do something a little special for.

Thank you Carrie my children LOVED IT!!!

Some of my favorite bathroom re dues.....

Hill Country Homebody:

Going from bedroom & bath room before to afters

You have to check them out at Jessica's blog. They are so simple changes that anyone could do. The nice thing is that it is not a huge bathroom remodel.
There are more pictures at her blog but this picture over the bath tub is my favorite. I would love to know how much that simple change cost?

Just a Girl

This was a little more of a remodel but so worth it. I have always loved ocean themed bathrooms. They remind me of clean look and the peace of being at the beach.

You'll have to check out the blog there are amazing before and after pictures.
