I want to make these next year........

Catching up

Catching up

Here are some new decorations that I have added to the house. I bought this cute wreath from Michael's. I have many friends who think I am crazy for decorating my stove. Well, this feathered wreath is a great addition to that little space. It's not like I cook a whole lot anyway.

I have been trying to update Mia's room. I love these frames from Kirkland's. I had HL cut some hot pink mats to go in them. Mo covered some old couch pillows with this pretty black and white fabric. I think the print is called Amsterdam.

This fairy wand is not a decorative item in the house, but Mia may tell you different. I made this cute little thing for Mia's birthday party. This was the trial. It was super easy and cheap! I'll be making 8 more for the other girls.

Inspiration

As Mother's Day comes to an end, I want to acknowledge the mother that inspires me-my momma. I hope that my girls want to be close with me as I am with my mom. I hope that I continue to have the patience and energy that my mom still has. My momma has given me an example to follow. I want to see her everyday. I want to talk to her everyday. I want to be like her everyday. Happy Mother's day.

Mia

Sweet, goofy girl!

Gifts

I thought that these water bottles would be great Teacher Appreciation gifts.

I also think that this baby wipes case and bottle would be a cute shower gift. These are for Luci, of course. She's is the hippest baby in town!

Additions

Here are some additions to the house. I added tassels to the sconces on the stairs. I guess I could have made them, but HL had them half off this week. I cut out the letters for my door on the Cricut. So much cheaper than ordering from somewhere. You can't tell on the picture, but the letters are a beautiful pink.

Fancy Nancy

This little sippy cup is great because the inside has an insert that you can take out and wash. I thought it would be perfect to glitter. Mia says that it is "fancy".

Vintage Barbie

These Barbie clothes were made by my Nonna before I was born. I decided to frame them and hang them in Mia's room. I love the style of the clothes back then.

Sisters

I look at this picture and hope that my girls will be so close. Luci thinks that Mia is so great. Mia thinks Luci is so stinky!

Easter cuties!

I'm going Green... I mean "bling"

Here is how I recycle! This old water bottle is now a sassy sipper.

Lamp disaster

It turned out pretty good considering. I really had no idea what I was doing. This old lamp was in my classroom. I had some left over fabric from my cushions in my kitchen. I cut out four sections of the fabric for each side, and hot glued them onto the lamp. Then I realized that the edges were too frayed. I bought some cheapy trim from HL and covered the edges with it. Finally, I glued the eyelash trim around the top and bottom. Low cost, high frustration!

Cups

Here are some of my new cups. The two with the M are for my friend, Michelle, and her mom. The black cup is for me. I glued on a felt flower to the bottom. It's a built in coaster!

Cute Coaster

My friend, Molly, bought me this adorable flip flop over Spring Break. It fits on the foot of a wine glass. Too CA-UTE!

Egg-cellent idea!

I saw this cute idea last week, so I had to try it. These wooden, white eggs are from HL. Rub on some transfers and add some bling. Egg-cellent!

Newbies

I saw this idea last week and decided to try it out. I took my old lamp shade, wrapped some fabric around it, and stuck a fleur in the middle. I think it turned out pretty cute! Here is another picture of the cupcake jars. I thought it would be cute for Easter.

LuLu

My sweet little Luci. She is sooooooo amazing!

Spring Pretties

I talked Mo into helping me paint stripes on my dining room wall. I am soooooooooo glad we did!! I L-O-V-E it! We started at 7:30pm and finished at 10:35pm. I think that's pretty good. It probably would have gone faster without all the mishaps. Let's see here.... started off with the wrong paint, poured a big tub of paint on top of myself, and ran out of painter's tape. We started painting all of the edges around the tape first, but then we figured out that rolling the paint on over the edges was MUCH faster. I think we are pros at painting stripes now.

Also, I had to add a picture of my cute moss covered rabbits. They are trapped under the cupcake jars.

Precious Pumpkins

I L-O-V-E these two precious pumpkins!!
