Autumn/ Winter Blocks

These are reversible Autumn/ Winter blocks that were designed by two of my favorite crafters, Candace and Cami. (These are Cami's lovely pictures as well). I just love these! I made a set for myself, my mom, and my mother in law. These go nicely with the Spring/ Summer blocks I made earlier.

Finger Puppet Animals

I found these finger puppets at http://theidearoom.blogspot.com. I ordered the templates and made the animals very affordably out of felt and google eyes. My daughter has had hours of fun with these cute puppets!

Stroller Remake

These are every toddler's favorite toy, boys usually included. How come they are made so cheaply? After the seat fabric ripping after three days of use, I made this new seat by removing the bias tape from the old seat and making a pattern from it. I used sturdy (and cheap) duck cloth, the original bias tape and buckle, and ribbon. Play to your hearts delight, children.

Dumpster Remakes

I love dumpster finds. I cleaned, painted, and prettied this kitchen cart up a bit. I also took this TV table, removed the lower shelf, added a top shelf, repainted it (after this picture), and voila! A place for the cat stuff. Free is best.

Tree and Flag Door Hangers

These were designed by Candace for a craft group, put together by me. The tree has changed to all black buttons and has been weathered.


Fence and Hangers

Designed by Cami for craft group. I love this fence! I have since made hangers for every month of the year, plus some. The fence was simple to put together so I remade one for each of my sisters and recreated some of the hangers for them as well. I love that I always have something to put on my door, no matter the month.
