Gardening Enrichment

So we had a Gardening Class last night for a simple enrichment activity. It was wonderful:) We got little marigold flowers donated from a local nursery and I made these cute dirt cups for the refreshment!! How fun:)

Man's Shirt to Toddler Shirt!

I took one of my husband's old polo shirts and turned it into a shirt for my 18 month old son. I took pictures along the way so I will be making a tutorial (once I am done with my stake enrichment:). But I wanted to share my before and after photos!! Its a great way to recycle an old shirt!!

Before.... Man's polo shirt (next to 18 month t-shirt, which I used to make a pattern)

After....(This is how it turned out, adorable little boys striped tee, my little guy looks so cute in it)

Tissue Flower Centerpieces!

I am busy at work with our upcoming stake enrichment/ women's conference. We are doing a day of service projects and classes. The only thing we need centerpieces for are the food tables. Here are the 2 I have completed so far, I got this idea HERE...so cute


* I used the bigger peat pots, so I didn't stack them. Just used a little paint and some ribbon:)

Girls Summer Shorts - Outfit

Crafting with my sister!! My goal was to make my little Sammy her summer wardrobe. Well I didn't get them all done but most are cut out. Cute little modest shorts and some matching tops. Once I finish the others I will get them posted. We made our own pattern for the shorts using a pair of shorts I already had for her that I liked. Modified them a little, added ruffles to some and this is what we got! Adorable. I just bought the shirts and embellish them to match, the cupcake was an iron-on I found at JoAnn's.

Easter Egg Wreath

So I saw this idea here... Easter Egg Wreath

and decided to make a little kid version. My sister and I made these with the kids. They turned out cute! We used the same instructions just cut the cardboard out of a cereal box.

Boy Shoes and a Tie Appliqued Onesie

Another Pair of Baby Boy Shoes!

Here is what you will need to do an applique. Fusible Web (JoAnn's has it in the pack-pictured below). Some cute fabric and a onesie. In the middle you will see the tie cut out of the fusible web. You attach it to the fabric and the onesie and then Iron (it fuses on both sides, its like double sided interfacing). Then stitch around the edge. Turned out so cute!! And it is so fast and easy.
