Craft Fair

I am back...seriously this time...back in the game of crafting. I have busily been working on items for my first craft fair!!!! I am so excited and a lot scared too. I have wanted to get into some craft shows for some time now, but always worry about the inventory I have on hand as well as cost and really the fear that no one will buy anything. But I have decided I will never know what it is like unless I try it. This lady bought a baby gift from my etsy store about 1.5 years ago. She just happens to be the coordinator for her club's (International Interior Design Assoc.) Christmas Holiday Shop and asked me if I was interested. It sounds very comfortable with about 125 women shopping...not too overwhelming. If you are in the San Antonio area, then please come and check it out on December 9th at the ZAZA gardens (downtown) from 5pm-9pm. Admission is free and they will provide appetizers. :-) I will start posting some of the items I will be selling there very soon.

Check out this fundraiser to help this sweet girl.

The Month of the Bib Necklace

August is filled with special birthdays among my friends and family. I like to give a homemade something along with a store bought something. This year I decided to make bib necklaces.

They are so fun to make because the options are endless, plus I get to destash some of my fabric scraps.

Here are some good tutorials if you are interested in making one too:

lots of flower tuts (I took the concept of the #22 rosette)

Drab to Fab

I have been seeing cute flowered t's all over. I decided to try one. I took a maternity one from my closet because it is just a little bigger in the mid- section and I could use that all the time not just when I am with child. Then I took one of my husband's old undershirts (minus the pit stains of course) and just kind of started hacking it all to peices.

I played around and came up with this...

I think it is decent enough to wear, don't you?

Too Many Favs

I have talked about these girls before, but Dphotpgraphy gave me so many beautiful photos of my last baby. {sniff} I seriously love all of them. Here are only SOME of the favorites I have.

And if you are looking for someone to do custom invites/cards, etc. then look here. Kelly did a great job on these birth announcements (and my all time favorite pic):

Check out this Blog

Don't you love when you have a relative who is a close friend? Well, my cousin is just that. I would like her even if we weren't related. :-) I have tons of great memories with her and now our kids are making memories together...so cool. Anyway, here is her encouraging blog. You must check it out. Today she featured me. I am so thrilled!

New Baby Items

I have got some new baby items being added to the shop. If you need a gift for someone please remember me. :-) I am trying to get back into the swing of things, and I kind of feel like I am starting all over again since my maternity break. I plan on adding a few more items this week as well. Tell your friends...
