    Harry Potter 16th Birthday Party Part Two

    August 15, 2017 / 0 Comments

    If you read Part One of my Harry Potter Party you will know that I wanted this to be a surprise for my daughter for her 16th birthday. Well, I suck at keeping secrets and she likes to snoop too! So between the two of us she figured out that I was throwing this party for her. Much to my surprise I was SOOO glad she figured it out because I had this genius idea to make scarves for each of the girls to match the house that they were in.

    Vintage Fourth of July Glitter Star Truck Pillow

    June 28, 2017 / 1 Comment

    Do you remember the cute Vintage St. Patrick’s Clover Truck Pillow I did back in February? If you are a follower of mine you will remember the FREE red truck holiday SVG files that Christine over at Cutting for Business was kind and generous enough to share!!  Quick tip though – Don’t click on any of the “Download buttons” on her page. There is a tiny link towards the end of her page that says “Zip Files” and those are the easiest way to get the images! So Christine used the Vintage Fourth of July truck image on a mug but Krystal and I decided to put the image on a pillow!…

    March 13, 2017 / 1 Comment

    I seriously think that we have done more St. Patrick’s crafting this year than we did Valentine’s! Oh my it’s been so fun! We have been on a Table Runner spree since last summer and we are here to show you another cute table runner we came up with. Once again the soft burlap has come in handy. This burlap was just a rectangle piece measuring 3′ long (the length of the yard) by 15″ wide. You can see a tutorial Here for our Summer table runner or Here for our 4th of July table runner.  Once you have cut the material you’ll want to surge around the edges like we…
