Awesome Fabric Flowers!



I was inspired AGAIN!!! This time I was inspired by Little Miss Momma's blog!!! I found this tutorial and used it to learn how to make my fabric flowers! Click HERE if you want to learn! I absolutely am in love with these flowers and could sit and make them all day long!!!

These flowers can be made for all ages and look great on anybody!

Here is a red and white puff fabric flower that I made. I made this flower with Valentines Day in mind! I made my oldest daughter (8 years old) an XOXO applique shirt and this will go great in her hair with the shirt!

And here is a Black Fabric Puff on a velvet ruffle headband. This headband is gorgeous and I can't wait to get a picture of it on a little baby's head!


I will keep the blog updated with all my new Fabric Puff Flowers!!!

Inspired AGAIN!!!!

Thank you so much to Moda Bakeshop for inspiring me to make this grocery bag dispenser. Cick HERE to see hers and a tutorial that will help you make your own!



This also brought back such great childhood memories of my grandparents because my grandma is the only person I knew that had one of these!!!

I use these grocery sacks all the time and before I had this wonderful item I had to go into the basement where we stored them away. Now it is so easy!!!

My plan is to make a few people I know these as gifts!
