Made a pouf for my husband's cousin's wedding shower!  Had a blast making it and can't wait to make another one!

Table decorations!







Tulle pom poms!!!

Party favors!



Found the pattern for these online, my wonderful hubby took card stock paper to office depot and they printed the pattern on the paper for us, super easy!  A little bit of ribbon and we have simple elegance fill with dove chocolates.

Clark's Birthday


I know it's a little late but I wanted to post the pictures from Clark's party.  My sister-n-law is a genius with a camera and took pictures for us and here are just a few, they turned out very well.  I'm gonna start with the banner I made for Clark, it now hangs in her room.  I'm really attached to it, I got the idea from pintrest, and had a blast making it.  I hope to make many more in the future.

Cooking with kids


Brinkley is always helping me when I cook, he loves it!  So when a friends three year was turning four I made her a play apron and potholders, complete with a recipe box which I covered in felt to make match the set.  The project turned out better than I expected.  I had no pattern for the apron, I just winged it, but next time I would try to make the straps Velcro I didn't think about children not being able to tie.  For the potholders I found a cool video on YouTube about how to make a potholder, which was very helpful.  The recipe box was actually a Christmas recipe box that I got on sale after Christmas, after covering it with felt you couldn't tell that it had been a Christmas one.
