Semi Crafting Cute Hair Clips

I bought and made these into hair flowers last October. It was on my long line of "to post list." I bough these packets at Hobby Lobby in the scrap booking section.
I cut out circles of fabric scraps and hot glued them to the butterflies.
Make a small snip in the center of another small fabric circle.
Slide it through the hair clip. ( find clips at Sally's in a large box for cheap!) Hot glue dot to stay in place.

Hot glue to the butterfly!




These hair clips are supper easy and so cute!! Have fun semi crafting!!

Being Crafty and Saving With Cute Milk Bottles


You know those cute little milk bottles everyone is using? I've been wanting to get some for some time but, for 6 bottles most places charge you $20 plus tax and shipping and handling. Well, I thought I could find a cheaper route! You can find these at just about any grocery store! It was about $4 for a pack of 4. I don't drink these, so I just poured them down the sink.
But, it was still worth it! Just wash them with soap and water.
If you rub lemon on the glass, it takes off all of the sticky left over from the stickers! My sister-in-law told me this awesome, life changing trick!!
Don't they look awesome!!

Burlap Flower Wreath

While Savannah was sick I had time to finish some undone projects. I've had the stuff to make this wreath for sadly, about about 2 years.
Materials:

White Styrofoam wreath (craft store)
burlap
Fabric scraps
glue bun
scissors
needle and thread
button
yarn

I just cut the burlap into about 4 inch with long strips and hot glued as I wrapped it around the wreath.
Then I wrapped yarn around the wreath and glued in some spots
Using a needle and thread fold fabric in half and sew in and out then, pull and tie thread.
Layer and hot glue layers together and a back.
Then lay flowers on the wreath as you would like them arranged then hot glue them onto the wreath.

Cute Headband Holder

Savannah and I have A LOT of headbands! You can never have too many hair accessories is how we feel!! At least I think she agrees with me! We have them in our drawers, cupboards, in buckets, they are everywhere! LOL! So, I decided to organize some of Savannah's.
All you need is an oatmeal container, scrapbook, and hot glue!
Cut paper the length of container and hot glue, then trace the lid and glue! Supper easy!!
I put Savannah's neat curlers inside!
Isn't it cute!! I love it!! I might have to make another though!

Savannah's Baking Birthday Party


Our Savannah is 5!!! We decided to have a baking party for her because, she loves to bake with me! She was so excited for her party so she could decorate cupcakes and be with her friends!









This is my poor attempt at a ruffle cake.



The boys decorated chef hats and the girls baking headbands!I didn't get any good pictures of this because Savannah threw a little tantrum, and I was busy.




Then, Savannah's favorite part, we decorated cupcakes!


The kids had their pictures taken with their adorable, some half eaten cupcakes!

We made little fruit kabobs!

Happy Birthday Savannah!!!
Savannah is 5!
Savannah had an awesome birthday! She loved being with her friends decorating, and eating cupcakes! . Then, on Sunday, we got together with our family and had family home evening and celebrated her birthday again! She had more sugar than we ever let her have. It was such a great birthday for her! Today, she told me that it's Savannah's birthday! So, I think she still thinks it is! She is so cute!We love our little 5 year old!!! She is beauitful, smart, and she always makes me smile and laugh! She does and says the cutest things! We all love her!
