I have a lot of friends having babies right now, so I decided to make these easy burp clothes. Something to add a little excitement to a boring burp cloth. I know they get used a lot so it makes it a bit easier to keep up with. I simply used cloth diapers and fun fabric. Just cut out the dimensions you want and sew on!
I saw this next idea on Pinterest and had to make my own! Again, for friends that are having babies! It works great going over the door handle to quiet the door when you open it.
This was one of the first things I decided to sew. I had an old tank top that I never wore by itself, and I had seen this dress. It was super easy! I found my fabric at JoAnn's. I used about 1.5 yards of fabric for the skirt and cut the tank top to the length I needed it. It was a really comfortable dress over the summer and every time I wore it out, I got compliments and was asked where I bought it!! YAY, a success!
I made this wreath for Christmas and decided last Spring to transform it from Christmas to a winter wreath. Burlap is such an easy material to work with, you really can't go wrong with how you fold it or wrap it. The flowers are made with strips of burlap, twisted and wrapped in a circular fashion. The wreath is just a foam wreath so I used straight pins to created the crinkled look.
On Sunday night I decided to get crafty! I had a yard of this fun, fall fabric and have been wanting to make some throw pillows as well as a table runner. Well, I decided to go get another yard of the fabric and I made two pillows and this fun runner! They all turned out great! I even got brave by making the pillow covers with zippers so I can simply change the cases throughout the seasons!
I wear A LOT of dangly earrings and I was getting tired of trying to find them each morning when I'm getting ready for school. I saw this idea forever ago and had the burlap and time one weekend. I printed the R off of Word and cut and made a stencil and used black craft paint on the burlap. Awesome, fun little project!
And finally, for the 4th and in honor of the Olympics, this wreath was made! It was a foam wreath, red, white and blue yarn, and white felt for the starts! It took forever to wrap the yarn but other than the stars, no glue was needed!! Talk about cute, I loved having it up all summer!
Well, hope you've enjoyed a few of my projects. If I get a good project going, I'll try to take step by step pictures! Happy Friday!!
