SSB Toys!

I have so many friends and co-workers having babies and been making a ton of baby gifts, so I thought perhaps selling them here...?

 

 

A friend of mine owns her own cake ball business, and she is having an open house (like a fancy show and tell) for all of her friends that have small side businesses, so I thought about taking my boutique style baby gifts to show off!  And my jewelry too, of course.

I'm pretty excited about it!

 

So start looking for these little guys on the shopping page!

Flowers of Many Colors

I had to fill in unexpectedly for the instructor on duty last night and got to teach on the stage for the first time!

Here's what I painted...

It's titled "Flowers of Many Colors", but I've kinda nick-named mine

"FuNkY PaNsEy"!

Not a lot of time to prepare though...I had to whip up this painting in under 20 minutes.  

That's WOW, even for me.  The experience was wonderful!

Here are a few close up shots...

I really love it!  I'm thinking of hanging it up at my office!

Baby Gifts for a Sweet Little Girl

I don't get to make many things for a girl, being the mother of 2 boys...so I really had a lot of fun with these!

I want to get some cute girl print flannel to make a few burp clothes, but that will have to come in a later post.

I love these little taggie blankie's!

I had some fleece I got here and have been waiting for just the right project to use it!  And I made a bunch of my little fabric taggie's for it. 

And check out the little taggie ball!

I used all my new fabric!

So cute!

Hope you enjoyed!  If you have any cool baby projects going on, post a comment!  I'm looking for new ideas and inspirations!

Jack's Fishing Adventure!

So my folks took Jack and his cousins up to Lake Texoma for the weekend...and I was a little nervous.

Remember this lake experience?

Anyhoo, so I was a little concerned about how Jack would handle being there.

Well my folks have been keeping me informed on how its going so far...

and its going GREAT!

He's playing, hiking...

AND FISHING!

"Papi" is right there teaching him how to make the perfect cast with his little Pixar Cars fishing pole and to wait for a little nibble.
So cute.

And the biggest catch of the day?

 Was Jack's!

I am SO proud..cannot even tell you. 
I only wish I could have been there.

Quick Fabric Fix!

So I was wanting to get some cute new fabric, preferably girl fabric, since I have a baby gift in the works for a co-worker.  He is about to be blessed with a beautiful baby girl, due August 11th!

But I just couldn't find the time to get to Hobby Lobby or Joanne's...I was so bummed!

But during a recent trip to Wally World, I discovered something awesome...

I know that they had dome away with the fabric department but discovered little pre-packaged fabric cuts in the craft department for only $1 each!!!  Not a lot for huge projects but for toys, bibs, and more?  Plenty to work with!

Just look at these too cute prints!?

I snagged a bunch for my baby girl gifts I have in mind for my gift, so for under $6...I'll have a homemade, straight-from-the-heart-baby gift!  Look for it coming soon!

So the next time you wanna quick fabric fix, head over to your Walmart and see what they have...and mine had A LOT!
