Whenever there is a holiday or a big event, I love to make my kids matching clothes to wear. It usually just consists of ties for the boys and then a skirt for my daughter. Recently we blessed our new baby, so I wanted to make everyone something out of this super fabric that I…

Baby Blow Out Bag
My little boy is now at the horrible blow out stage. If you’ve had a baby, you know exactly what I am talking about. It’s horrible, especially happens when you are on the go. Or if it gets all over you, my baby’s first one got all over me…. it was lovely. I always have…
Framed Felt Circle Wreath
Do you ever do a project just leads to another project and then to another one? That is what happened to me with this project. I painted the shelf and bench in my mud room a dark brown and right after that I thought that it would be great to decorate the shelf. It just…
Treasure Map {Summer Activity}
This summer I am going to try to do more and more crafts with my kids. I love creating and I want them to love it too! Luckily there are so many great ideas out there that I really don’t have an excuse for not doing it. Jo-Ann’s has a spring catalog that has 72…
Freezer Pop Holders
It’s getting nice and warm and that means it’s time for Popsicles! I love Popsicles. Like, love love them! I could live off of them. Since we live so far away from a store, the only ones that we will be able to enjoy is the freezer pops. My kids always complain about it being…
CTR towel
My oldest son turned 8 this year and in our church, that is when they get baptized to become a member of the church. I wanted to make him something special with his name on it but I didn’t want it to be something that he wouldn’t use. So I decided that it would be…
Rag Car Seat Tent
I posted this earlier on the Ribbon Retreat blog. Most of you know that I just recently had my 4th little boy. With him being my fourth, I wanted to make sure that he got some new things because I really didn’t need anymore boy stuff. So I decided that I needed to make…
No Sew Pillow
When I got done with the four pillows on my bed I felt like I needed another pillow, one that was smaller and a different shape. I love the look of the “tootsie roll” pillows so I wanted to make one of those. But I had no clue how to do it and didn’t know…
Yellow Dyed Skirt
I love color. And I love bright colors. When I get dressed up, I love to wear color! I have been wanting a yellow skirt for awhile now, but haven’t found any great fabric. So I decided to take an old knit bed sheet and turn it into a yellow skirt. This is how I…
Piping in a pillow
I have always wanted to try to put piping on a pillow. I love the look of it. But I was scared and intimated by it. So I never did it. Sewing still scares me. But then I was sent some fun fabric and piping from Jo-Ann’s Craft Stores and I decided that I would…
Fabric Wrapped Décor Balls
While I was working on my master bedroom shelf, I was trying to figure out what would look on the shelf that wouldn’t break if (and when) my kids got to it. Décor balls are great for that. I had some brown ones already but I wanted to add some color to them, so I…

Fabric Covered Canvases
Five years ago I bought some 12×12 canvases for about $1.50 each. I knew that I could do something with them to make them look so much better. So I covered them with fabric for my last house. Since then I have changed the colors of my house, so I decided to change up the…
Easter Pillows
Last year I of course made some fun Easter Pillows. It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t :). Easter Pillow Spring Pillow I would love it if you followed along.
Spring Table Runner and Lily Centerpiece
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of iBulb for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I love the look of fresh flowers in my house! They really can brighten up a room! I was so excited to see some Easter lilies at our local grocery store (yes in the town with only 300…
Boy’s Velcro Tie {Perfect for Easter}
I have three boys (and one more on the way), so I’m always looking for good boy crafts. I have made several ties or bow ties for them. Some of then have been good and other ones just okay. My boys like to wear ties, but hate the clip on ones that come with their…
2×4 Spring Animals
This year I’m not doing much decorating for Spring. Mostly because I did a ton last year and because it just came too soon in the year. Oh and because I’m 7 1/2 months pregnant and being lazy. Anyway, here is one of my favorite things I made from last year: Check out the tutorial…
My Master Suite Reveal!
After I finished up my living room, I decided that I wanted to work on the master bedroom. I spend a lot of time in here, especially when I’m not feeling very well. So I wanted to like how it looked rather than hate it (like I did before). I loved the colors of my…
St. Patrick’s Day Shirts
I’m having a fun time being festive for all of the holidays this year, so I thought it would be fun to make some St. Patrick’s Day shirts for a couple of my kids. This is how I made it: Using my Expression 2, I cut out the heat transfer. Make sure to mirror the…
Train Birthday Shirt
Every birthday I make a birthday shirt for my kids. They usually have a big number on them and then some kind of saying or something. I wanted to do that for my son, but he thinks that he is turning 5 this year (he’s turning 4) and so I couldn’t put a big 4…
