Can you believe that I have never made a felt flower until recently? You would think with little miss being 18 months old that I would've attempted it by now. It has been on my list for awhile of things to take the time to make and finally, the time came.
A couple of my girlfriends have had babies recently so I wanted to make them a headband that matched the cute outfits I had for them. I found a couple tutorials through pinterest that I wanted to try. I actually did 2 different methods.
The yellow flower I made using this tutorial from Craftiness is not Optional. This one used hot glue. It was really easy. What I learned making these is that when you trace them with a black pen, there is NO backside, your lines are going to show.
For the pink flower I used this tutorial of a pin I found on Pinterest. I actually used a needle and thread. And although it turned out just as cute, I learned the hot glue was a lot easier. I also learned, either process took about the same amount of time.
They were so easy, that I decided to make a white flower too. I glued them onto an elastic headband and then covered my hot glued area with another piece of felt on the back.
While I was at the ribbon store buying the elastic pieces for the headbands, I saw this teeny tiny flowers that were so cute. Super simple to just hot glue a couple onto a headband!
These babies are going to be stylin with their pretty new headbands!
Today's tasty treat was inspired by one of my most favorite candies!! Do you remember these things??? I absolutely LOVE Sixlets. It's amazing how fast I can finish one of those little sleeves.
I thought these would be perfect for Mother's Day or for a fun Welcome Spring card, so I added some writing to the front of the card. I'm needing to write a thank you note to my neighbor and I think she will love the Welcome Spring card!
As I was looking at different recipes, I realized I didn't have everything needed for any 1 recipe. I went to my pantry and pulled out things I had and that is how this dish came to be.
She also finds a whole bunch of green and St. Patty's themed ribbon. Now that we have the basics, it's time to create!
She asked me to cut out some letters using my cricut. What else would be appropriate? Of course it would have to be LUCKY! I also decided to print off a Shamrock just in case she wanted to use it.
Here is her finished project. She decided to hang hers in her entry way. Don't you love the polka dots!
I absolutely LOVE the U made out of pennies! Perfect for a LUCKY St. Patrick's day!
When I was walking through Walmart I saw these bunny shaped marshmallows and decided I could put the two together and make some cute gifts for our neighbors and friends for Easter.
I just had to throw in a picture of how the kids were being entertained as I put these together. They love their marshmallows and the Disney Channel!
I made a printable with the instructions for the brownies, used a 4" circle punch and attached them to the top with tape.
