I'm a little behind, but here are some pics of costumes I made for Halloween- This feathery dress, complete with wings, to resemble the girl bird in the Disney movie 'Rio'. I just safety pinned all the boas to a blue dress I made. And the hat was made by hot gluing feathers to a beanie ( I love hot glue!) & bending some black tag … [Read more...]

No Bunny Pics Yet
I know I said I'd post pictures of the stuffed animal bunnies I'm making. I've only completed two! But I haven't had time to take pics yet. There's no good lighting in my house!

My son ripped the corner of a poster that was on his wall in his Mickey Mouse themed bedroom while jumping on the bed, which he's not supposed to be doing! But instead of throwing it out, I had the idea to modpodge it onto a blank canvas. With my son's help, we centered the part we wanted to see on the canvas and cut around it wide enough to … [Read more...]
New Old Rocking Chair
My rocking chair squeaked so loudly it kept everyone awake, which defeats the whole purpose! But the other day I found a lonely one sitting outside a neighbor's house waiting for some TLC. Thank you generous neighbors! I LOVE freebies! I adopted it & freecycled my old one (if you're not familiar, www.freecycle.org is an awesome Yahoo … [Read more...]
