It's the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse...

Emberlee has recently become interested in Mickey and Minnie Mouse. She calls them "Mick Mouse" and "Min Mouse" I found some directions on how to make "Mouse Ears" clippies and thought she would like them. Also, I think we are doing a Mickey and Minnie Mouse themed birthday party for Emberlee's second birthday and I thought these would be so cute for her to wear at the party. The first one (Mickey) was a bit messy but the second one (Minnie) came out really cute!

WCA Elementary Cheer Bows

I was asked to make bows for the elementary cheerleading team at the school my husband teaches at. I was so excited that they asked me to do this for them! This was my first experience with attaching a bow to a ponytail holder rather than a barrette/clip. I liked the finished bow and think I might make some for myself! I had fun making all twelve of the bows and can't wait to see the team together with them on!

"Tin-Girl" Costume

This is my first shot at a homemade Halloween costume...Emberlee is going as the "Tin-Girl". She has 3 little friends who are going as the other characters from "The Wizard of Oz". I found her a grey shirt and leggings and she already owned the sparkly silver shoes. I made a tutu, ribbon wand, Tin Man's "heart", and a mini funnel to for her head. I had a blast making this costume and look forward to making more fun costumes in years to come! I'll have to post some pictures of her actually wearing the costume after Halloween.

Balloon Bows

My sister-in-law suggested a few weeks ago that I try making balloon bows. So I did and I think they are so cute!! I feel like I'm bringing back the "old school" because I know I had some balloon bows when I was a little girl. These were fun and easy to make and I'm sure I will be making more!
