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)

cupcake topper


After Sophia official birthday party, I had to come up with something for her school. There was no doubt in my mind I had to do cupcakes, kids love cupcakes and especially the frosting. So I got some ideas from internet, google is my favorite inspiration tool! I baked 25 cupcake, frost them and decorated them with this crepe paper dress. Everyone was amazing by such of simple project!

My beautiful Sophia is 5

My daughter Sophia is 5 today. So we decided to have a birthday party on Saturday, a Fancy Nancy Tea Party! We had so much fun and the weather was incredible so we were able to have the party outside in the yard ( that made cleaning way easier!).
I tried to prepare everything ahead of time but like always I found myself rush and get everything together in 4 days, will I ever learn? Anyway, because birthday can be very expensive and she only 5 I tried to keep it in a budget and make it everything myself(cheap but a lot of work)cake,food,party-favor,....
She had fun and that's all it matters.








Isn't she beautiful?
