Do you pin?

This is me

I'd love to follow you. Leave your link in the comments!

Anyway, you've probably seen this all over pinterest. Or on Meg's blog. I love Meg. :)



I grabbed a couple of cheapie canvas' and some crayola crayons and grabbed a hot glue gun and voila!



Of course I then had to do another for the other bedroom.



This time I had the hairdryer on low fan, high heat instead of high and high and I much prefer the results of this one.

Pepper's pink Party

My baby girl turned one in June this year and I planned a big PINK party for her. My first ever pink party, and let me tell you after 3 boys, I was looking forward to it!
I made her party dress using this tutorial and of course, the Sherbet Pips fabric. It's so girly and lovely!

The cake was a vanilla cake with vanilla icing. I really wanted to do a ruffle cake but it was too time consuming so this was the next best choice. :)

I also made mini cupcakes with 100s and 1000s in the mix and my first ever sugar cookies. And they were a hit so hopefully I will get better at them and they will look better at the next few parties!


I kept the decorations pretty simple and pink. lol Tissue paper flowers, lanterns, bunting made by the ever talented Leoni and balloons. For what is a party without balloons?

Blogtoberfest

Well, I am hoping this will help get my mojo back. I will post everyday of October.
I am having a giveaway..... of something..... I don't know what yet! lol
But it may be something handmade, it will almost certainly involve chocolate. To win, simply comment on a post sometime during the month. I will draw the winner on the 31st October.
Looking forward to get back into the blogging community!

February?

Gee that flew by. I am hoping to have more time to check in now that hubby is working, Hunter is at school and Levi is at kinder. Imagine how much time I will have when I find daycare for Raife and Pepper. For now, I will slip in when I can. I hope to be able to comment a bit more, I feel like I sneak in and out of blogs more than I'd like. Anyway, any interest in some Christmas crafting?

Wrapping paper painting

I've been making some fabric bags the past few years and decided to sew the kid's name tags as well. It was fun!


And some gorgeous yarn dyed by my lovely friend. Her shop is shut at the moment but hopefully will be open again soon. Ladybug loops
I already used the bottom right one for a friend's baby girl.

and so this is Christmas

Merry Christmas to you and yours from me and mine!
