Re-covered Vinyl High Chair!
Our old high chair cover got riped and started to stink! It was time for a new cover. My daughter has out-grown her bumbo and needed a high chair so I found a cute girly vinyl fabric at a local quilt shop and got to work… I love how it turned out, don’t you! And best of all you can follow along and DIY to your old high chair cover! This is the only before picture I could find! This is when my little boy (now 3 year old) was a baby… Much better… Want to make your own?? Well here you go… start by making a pattern out of your…

Father’s Day Candy Bouquet
Here’s a cute idea for a Father’s Day gift or Valentine’s Day gift for daddy!! A candy bouquet…would be great as a teacher’s gift as well, maybe put a sign on it that says “your the sweetest!” Gather your supplies…. variety of candy bars, sticks, whoppers, Styrofoam(or extra whoppers), tissue paper or other embellishments… Cut off top of Whoppers box… Put Styrofoam in the whopper container and a square piece of paper..fill back up with whoppers, you could also just buy extra whoppers so they fill to the top! Tape your sticks to the back of the candy bars. Place Stick candy along edge of whopper container… I added little Tie…

Summer Dress
Saw THIS tutorial over at Make it and Love it and I just had to make one! When my sister came to visit we bought the material and got started. The elastic is a little time consuming but the end result is adorable. My daughter just loves it! Twirling!!! *My only recommendation would be to not use as much fabric. This dress is made to be 2.5 times your child’s size, I would recommend doing 1.5 to 2 times bigger! Feeding in your elastic would be much easier! Here are the formulas I used for the pieces: Main Pieces (cut2): (Child’s waist measurement) x 2.5, then add 2, then divide…

Added some clip art. Printed the BBQ clip-art on the red and white paper then cut them out to fit the card. Cut out all your pieces and glue them together. Punch your holes, add your ribbon, fold and glue the sides of your pocket together and let dry. Put invite in the pocket!

Necklace T-Shirt
Saw this awesome idea to paint a necklace on my little girls t-shirt. You can find the tutorial HERE… and I just had to make one for my little Samantha. It is really easy to make and you can add a little fabric flower to embellish it even more! Easy to do and very cute. The only advice I would give is to put more paint than you think on each dot. The more paint the puffier the dot after you steam it. The fabric paint is called “Velveteen” written up on the top edge of the bottle of fabric paint found at the craft store. It was intermixed with all the other…
