Sunday Summarize
Sundays are going to be about summarizing our week. I am very new to blogging but hope that within the next couple weeks I will figure out the very best way to have my blog setup. I have lots of things that I am wanting to learn and can not figure it out by googling it. I am hoping that I have a fellow blogger come to my rescue and be willing to answer my questions. If you would like to be that special friend to me I would be OOOO SOOOO GRATEFUL!!
Ok on to my SUNDAY SUMMARIZE!
This week was a great week at home with my kiddos. We played with so many new toys and my son in an XBOX addict! We might have to have a weekly XBOX Annonymous meeting!
I don't think we have got out of pajamas much this week and I am sure people that have come to my door have not thought I was the Next Top Super Model. I hope that this coming week I will be more productive and I am super excited about my blog!
Monday and Tuesday the kids are still out of school so I hope to find and do some fun projects with them! Watch daily for my posts, this will be lots of FUN!

My first share of 2011!!
I have made many birthday outfits for many special lil people but this outfit was extra special. I want to give a shout out to lil "M", hugs and kisses!!!
I started this outfit with the color palette, pink, purple, black, and white! The items I needed to make it was tulle~ pink, purple, black and white (I use the 6 in. rolls of tulle), elastic (I use stretchrite 3/4 in from Wal-Mart ), ribbon (I used black with white polka dots satin ribbon 7/8 size), a white tank (this one is from Wal-Mart),Fabric spray paint (Simply Spray Tye Dye from Hobby Lobby), rubber bands (no more than 10),and hot glue, double prong alligator clip, needle and thread, and ribbon for the bow. And SCISSORS!
I wish I had step by step pictures to show of this project but I don't (I will next item I feature)
I start with the Tye dye tank. I just randomly tie rubber bands around parts of the tank and then spray the dye. I let the front dry, take the bands off, and move to the back. I feel this is really an idiot proof project! They have all turned out awesome, at least to me!
I made a small bow and attached it to a pin so it could be added to the tank or taken off.
The tutu, I get the waist measurement and cut elastic. I hand sew the elastic together for the tutu.
Then I sit down and cut my strips of tulle the length I want them for the correct length or tutu. This depends if you want a short, pixie tutu, or a long princess tutu. I went with a pixie style tutu.
Then I tied the tulle around the elastic (I will show my technique in pictures soon. Then after the tutu was done I cut small piece to alternate around the bottom of each piece of tulle. This creates the petti type tutu.
When completely done I wrap the waist of the tutu!!!
Then I make a hair bow to match the whole outfit and tada that completes it!!!
If I have followers that are interested in a more detailed instructions I will do this!!!
Thank you everyone!!!

2010 was good to me but I am starting a new chapter and one of the things I am doing is blogging. I am going to start doing crafting and sharing some great ideas of my own and awesome things I have learned from other crafters. I have not blogged a lot but just in the last couple days have come across some great women and hope to show everyone how talented they are.
I will start this blog today and hope to learn enough that I will get it up and going soon. I hope to have many followers and meet some great new people. I have learned so much just in the last few days and it makes me sooo excited all the possiblities that I will be able to do!
