More wedding DIY

Ring Bearer Pillow

Mr. M and I are getting married June 21st, 2013. I know most of the time the brides parents pay for the wedding, but since both of my parents are no longer with us, we are paying for this ourselves. I knew right away that I wanted to make a lot of the items myself. I decided that I was going to make the ring bearer pillow one night and kind of threw this together. I absolutely LOVE the way this turned out! I'm sure I'll make a few more to see which one I like best, but this one might be it!!

Birthday Onesie!

Let me tell ya... Making all of these adorable little girly outfits is killing me! Someone needs to talk my sweet fiance into giving me more babies. Ha!

So, this onesie was made for a lovely customer who wanted something cute for her little Ladybug's 1st birthday. I was more than happy to make her exactly what she wanted! I had a little chiffon issue at first. Who knew this stuff frayed like crazy?! After getting that figured out, I was on a roll! I am so pleased with the finished product and I hope little miss is too!! If you would like a special birthday outfit for your little one, you can send me an email at coleescrafts@yahoo.com. I LOVE making custom items!!

Flubber!!

I saw a recipe on Pinterest for Flubber earlier today. After sitting around the house with three boys being bored out of our minds, I decided a project was much needed. So, I pulled up the Flubber recipe and herded everyone into the kitchen. My fiance was a little skeptical, but I was determined to entertain. Ha!
This stuff was SO easy to make AND I had the supplies on hand! My 2yo has been sitting at the kitchen table playing with this stuff for well over an hour! He's "hiding" his guys in it and making little bouncy balls. This was definitely what we needed for this boring day.

Here's the link to the recipe! http://frugalfunchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/04/flubber-recipe.html

Crazy Week!

I am officially the mother of a school age child! Holy crap! J started school last week. He's loving it and to be honest, I'm kind of loving the quiet time between noon and 3:30! My other two boys nap while he's at school so this has been great! What's not so great is the fact that 2 days in he got sick. You know what happens when one gets sick. They ALL get sick. So, I've had a week taking care of sick little boys. Not too fun, but we're slowly getting back to normal. Let's hope the rest of the school year goes a little more smoothly.
