Jewelry Dabbling




I recently also started
To dabble in making jewelry which is fun and interesting to just make your own unique creations! 


Time to get this going...

Well I started my blog but never really got to start it and keep it going the way I wanted to, I guess life sometimes gets us off track in that way! I hope that moving forth I can share whatever my creations are and share inspiration with others and also get inspiration from others :) I love having these hobbies especially in the dead cold of blustery winter. Above is my latest project, Almost complete minus the buttons, my first knitted baby sweater with a hood! Must admit I was pleased with how it turned out for my first time.

Making Valentines!





So I decided to make Valentines' with Madison, my 17 month old; great way to introduce her to finger paints and also way cuter/more personal than buying them at a store! And I know people she sends them to will love them so much! This was an adorable idea I saw on the new popular Pinterest (love that site), never thought about all the cute things you can make with little kids hands, feet & some fingerpaints. This was our first time using finger paints and it was an adventure, I didn't get to take many pictures of the process since I was trying to control somewhat where all the paint ended up! Needless to say it still was everywhere and Madison got a bath after! :) It was great fun though. Hope you all enjoy!! We sure did. :)

Her Beginning :)


Here is the first page to my precious daughter, Madison's scrapbook; I have so many pages to create to document all the precious moments in her life. I particularly like this as the first page-the pink & blue straps are the fetal heart monitor straps used when my water broke unexpectedly at 32 weeks; I kept many things from her beginning at the hospital to incorporate into her scrapbook. I thought this turned out as a cute way to use the monitor straps and I love this picture of her. I am so blessed to have been given the chance to be her mom!

My First Post :)



Well I am going to give this blog thing a try! Seems like a great way to share ideas with others and a great outlet to put my energy into while doing things I greatly enjoy :) I am posting a couple of old cards I made and liked and will make some things this week to share!
