Headbands

Making headband is one of my passion and fortunately my girls like them too. I experimented for awhile until I got to the finish product with different material, shape and headbands. This is what I come up with. Headband are very easy accessories you can use to change a dress or just feel pretty. I wear them too sometimes they make me feel pretty.

Faux cupcakes

When my sister in law asked for a faux cupcakes for her birthday, I has no idea what they were. But thanks to google I did my research and found out some tutorial and some inspiration(I love google, it is an indispensable tool for learning). The first attempt did not go that well. I followed one of the tutorial but it turned out very heavy and I had to shipped it all the way to California. So I did the process all again with my own adjustment and this is the results. Now I only wish I wrote down my process just in case I will have to make more in the future.

Sherry present

Today I want to share with you pictures of the present I made for my mother in law-Sherry- for Christmas. I got the container at Wall mart, so I altered it using my xyron machine( it works so much better than just glue). And I cut all different pieces of paper and made tags so she can have all the material by hand to make some cards. She loves scrapbook and carmaking and I hope she will be able to use it. I also included an address stamp with her address from SU

Canvases

Canvases-Did a spelled it right? I will ask my husband when he gets back home. Anyway I saw at Michael's a pack of canvas(7)on sale and even if I had no clue what to do with it I had to grab it. That's what happen when I go to craft store I get this buying impulse and I can't stop myself..........
I decided to make hair bow holders considering I have two girls and a lot of hair accessories laying around the house. And I think they can also be used as pictures or notes holder. If you are curious to know how to make it this is the instructions:
1)put on top of the canvas a layer of batting and the fabric of your choice
2)staple the fabric on the back pulling thigh
3)create your design with ribbons or trim and staple on the back
4)with hot glue attach some embellish
5)sew-by hand- a piece of the same fabric on the back for a clean look(optional)

Hello

I have been gone for so long that I almost forgot how to blog. Our trip to Italy was amazing(I will post some picture soon) and after we come back we moved. What a crazy time! Finally my computer and my hard drive are in the same room so I can share something with you. This is a set of wrist cuffs I made for my sister and I am happy she loved them, but now I have a list of wrist cuff to make for her friends( if I only can find my sewing machine between all of these boxes)
