Chevron Tray

Chevron is so popular right now and I have to say that although I have none in my house right now, I do love it. So when I saw this I thought it would be the perfect little thing to add some chevron into our none chevron home. Go here to get the how to and I have to say that although Martha Stewart is really creative and does a good job with this kind of stuff, she is to much of a now it all and she really bugs me.

Playing Mother

Lucy is obessesed with her little baby doll, she does everything a Mom would do for her baby. So I decided that Lucy would think it was pretty cool if they had some matching clothes as well. And she loves it, best part is that lucy can put them on all by herself.

For these little dolls you use hardly any fabric, so it is a great project for all those scraps, that you dont now what to do with.

Shag

I saw this pillow at V and Co. and just knew I had to have one. I have some summer pillow covers that i put out in the spring but love the texture of this and thought it would be a great little addition. Go here for her tutorail.


And here is mine. The color is a little darker then the other blues in my front room so I may need to try again. But it was a very simple pillow to make and I think I will definaly make another one.

Rufle Skirt

This Ruffled skirt is probably one of my favorite skirts that I have ever made. I made myself one back in November, but thought it would look even cuter on the Little Lady. I was right she looks so cute in it, and get so many compliments every time she wears it. So this one her is for my niece Ella, I just need to make baby sister one now. I love this skirt because it is my daughters one clothing item that she can wear all year round and is never really out of season.











I am in the process of making 2 more to put in my Etsy shop.

The Royal Wedding

For some reason I am a little obsessed with this cute Royal Couple. Maybe it's because Kate's a "Commoner" and it seems like a real life Cinderella story. Maybe it's because growing up Prince William was one of those huge posters I had hung in my closets - compliments of a friend, I did not buy it for myself. Or it could be because my husband and I live in London for a Semester. Who knows why really.




But just look at them, how could you not love them. I loved her dress and I loved how simply elegant she looked. Her dress was Simple, but gorgeous. And I really liked that she did not have on a huge necklace, it would have taken away from the dress and from herself. I don't think Prince William is just that attractive, but he does look very handsome in his uniform.




They do just look in love, and I think that is why I like them.
