Ruffle Skirt

I LOVE this fabric I think it is so bright and inviting. And I love this very easy pattern I found a long time ago on GRAND REVIVAL. First of all she make the cutest fabric and then has some free tutorials. This pattern was for a four or five year old so I just made everything a little smaller and it worked. I have made a few of these skirts and love everyone of them.

Baby Shower Ideas

My sister in law is having her first baby and it's a girl so we are doing a shower for her at the ind of the month and I have always wanted to make a diaper cake so i think we are going to test it out. Here is a good source for this cute cake.I am in charge of a game for the shower so this is what we will be playing which I think will be a hoot.
Put the candy bars in the center of the room and then have the questions in a basket or something else your choice and have each person pick a phrase and then let them match it to the candy bar. Everyone walks away happy with a candy bar.

Summer wreath


I have been on a wreath kick lately but, I do LOVE this wreath for the summer, it just might be a little expensive to make. Maybe if I make it in the fall when shells go on sell that would be more doable. But being a beach lover this caught my eye. Here is where you can find a tutorial. This wreath I also think is really fun and on that same blog. Here is a direct source though.
