Note Birds



I made these little guys after I saw a similar thing in a couple different catalogs. The kids and I have been having some fun with them sending little notes back and forth to each other!

TuTu Cute!



I made this TuTu for my friends baby..she will be one. I hope Miss Sophia likes it!
This has monkey ribbons because her party is monkey themed.
The rhinestones are attached by heat..but probably should not be chewed on.

Snow Globes!!!



The kids and I decided that making snow globes would be fun!
I got a few little plastic treats on Etsy...They are really cupcake toppers but I just cut off the sticks if they had them. We used Martha Stewart Glitter and a bit of glycerin to make the sparkles float a little. The little jar is a spice jar from costplus and the large is a canning jar..I got those from my neighbor. In the future I will out something under the scene so that you can see it better.

Sweet Sisters


Meet Elise and Eva. They are secret keeping sisters made from wood game pieces.
Eva, the light blue sister, is the shy one but she has many fantastic stories to tell.
These beauties are a gift to a friend.

Spool People!

These are wooden game pieces I got at Michaels. I just painted them!!
I added the thread around their necks to make them unique and kind of bring back the spool-ishness of them.
These guys will be going to my mom and dad for their birthdays!
I saw these first on ETSY.
I also bought the clay version, also at ETSY.
I figured I could probably make them myself..granted they are not as fan-tabulous but a heck of a lot cheaper!!
I have also seen these using actual spools of thread with wooden balls on top for the head. I might try that version as well.

Bookmarks





Yeah! I completed a project!
I used a few of the bookmarks using the heart beads I made the other day.
I tried just to kind of throw them together with as little thought as possible so I did not get caught up with matching everything exactly.
I like the way they turned out. I glazed the beads with sculpty glaze before I strung them to make them look a little fancier:)
Now, I just have to figure out who to give them to!
