Fun projects

Here is Donovan's new Super Hero blanket that I made for him. I'm not to thrilled about the black stitching but I ran out of white. And at the time I was NOT about to go the store to get more white! I think it was around 11:00 at night.

Bella's New Dress/Shirt

Ok so here is the "dress" that I made for Bella. Let me just start by saying that when I cut it out I measured for a baby that was 4 months old. Yes, it has taken me that long to getting around to it. So it actually fits her like a shirt and is VERY cute with little white leggings under it. I have a matching flower for her headband to go with it. I will post a picture of her wearing it, but right now this is it.

This is the first baby blanket that I have made for Bella

I can't believe it has taken me this long to make one

But at least it only took me 1 day to actually make

Cute cupcake dish towel

I love cupcakes, and anything that has to do with cupcakes. So I thought of making a dish towel into a cupcake, but apparently I wasn't the only one with this idea. My sister saw something like this at Robert's. But mine is much cuter. I have some other dish towel ideas in the works. They are just so fun and make for cute little gifts.

Bella's Room

Finally got around to taking some pictures of Bella's bedroom.It has been done for how many months now? Oh well, here you go! I don't have the picture of her cute chandelier that is hanging in the corner, I will have to take that one when the lighting is better.

This room was a lot of fun. The bedding is all the same bedding that we had for Maddisyn, so I was happy to get to use it. The dress was something I made to hang all of Bella's hair bow's on, but once it was made.... I didn't want to ruin the look by adding all the hair bow's and flower clips. I made this the morning of her baby blessing, that's why we were a tiny bit late.... oops!

I was really proud of myself on this one. It only cost me $7 to make this, just the top part with the tulle. I still have to put her name on the inside. In a darker pink I will put a larger cursive "A", and over the "A" I am going to put Isabella Grace in cursive as well.

This shelf was really simple too! It was there when this was Donovan's room. I just left it on the wall and painted over it. It was brown before. Then I saved all the the rose ribbon came on the diaper cake from my baby shower, and stapled it to the shelf, and hot glued the rhinestones on. It turned out a lot cuter than I thought it would.

With this one, I bought the wall candle holder years ago at a yard sale for $1, it has been sitting in my garage the whole time. I almost threw it out until I decided that I could do something with it. It was dark brown wood with black metal... really quite ugly, but I think it ended up looking so cute one painted and embellished.

And as far as the wall border goes, well I got pretty creative. I went and bought some fabric, cut it into strips and stapled it with a nail gun and covered up the staples with rhinestones.

I have to admit I love this room!
