New business venture??

I love making crafts. I love making useful crafts. I love to share my crafts with others.


(this is a bib I threw together with some scrap material... it's a cute idea, I just need to cut/sew it better)


The other day I was at Chick-fil-a when a lady came up to me and asked me if made my car seat cover... why yes, I did. She asked if she could get my info cause she wanted me to make her some! Ok!


While I was leaving the parking lot at Chick-fil-a, another lady came up and asked for my info cause she wanted one too. Ok!

Hmm... Should I make a business out of this? I have several ideas for baby gifts. Maybe this could just be something fun I love to do and make a little money on the side... Bonus!

Quilting!

Chair Covers...

I have been putting my crafty-ness to the test. I made chair pad covers for my new table's chairs. This will prevent quick stains, and I got an awesome fabric that is also reversible! I love it! My curtains will be next, I found a way cute matching fabric for those too!

My old friend Ali has come up with a great idea! She is making these awesome custom burp clothes! They are eco-friendly and made with organic materials! How cool is that? Check out her blog HERE! These would make awesome baby shower gifts!

Which One?

Ok, so I am having a little trouble deciding how to decorate my house. I first decided with the yellows and greens based with some dark brown... but Chris isn't lovin it. He would like something a little less bold, more neutral. I don't have a problem with neutral, I just don't want boreing. So I made both of these curtains, let me know which one you like better.

Updates!

I just thought I'd share with you guys a few things we've been up to the past few weeks. We celebrated Crew's birthday a week after the actual day, and that was really fun. We had a nice BBQ at my brother's house, opened presents, ate cake, and then played PICTIONARY! That game is the bomb! Crew enjoyed getting several cars, along with the Cars movie! He's a very spoiled little man. He liked to look at the cake, but eating it was a different story, he doesn't like sweets!



The weekend after that we went to the Lake with our neighbors. They rented some jet ski's and we camped out over night and rode all morning long! It was such a blast! One time Chris and I were going to drive tandem and Kaylee we crying cause she really wanted to go with us so we let her ride between us. I took it easy at first, but started being a little more daring, I took a turn too sharp and accelerated too fast and SPLASH! We tipped over and fell into the lake! Luckily we were all wearing our life jackets and we jumped back on and Chris took over the controls from there! It was a good time!

So I have been teaching swim lessons for the past two weeks at the pool by our house. It's been great cause we go swimming afterwards and Kaylee loves it! I also will take Crew, and he likes to go thru the sprinklers that they have.


Last but not least, I finally finished my headboard! I made a headboard for our bed from scratch! It's taken me almost a month since we've boughten the wood, but I finished it today! Chris needs to help me set it up in the room, but I thought I'd share a picture of what it looks like now. I made Kaylee lay on the floor next to it so you could get an idea of how big it is!
