a peak into santa's workshop

Just call me Santa.

Actually call me an elf. They are the ones that do all the slave labor right?

Since I am the slowest sewer in the world...I've been working long and hard on Christmas presents for my girls. I still have many more to go but I'm on a deadline and it is coming up very soon! Here is what I've done so far...

Just a Wannabe

I am a self proclaimed copy cat. And when I saw Bakerella make these adorable reindeers...I just had to copy. Robert's work party is today and he is taking all of my little reindeer friends to share.

Aren't they cute? I had so much fun making them...too bad I stayed up all night! At least I had Julie & Julia to keep me company...cute movie!

Christmas Cheer

Not that I don't have a million Christmas presents to finish sewing...but I thought I would take a break to make this fun wreath. I raided our thrift store and bought all their glass ornaments! I used this tutorial for guidance. Super easy and fun.

I love how it adds a little CHEER to our otherwise bare wall

Just a Taste!

Well I've always loved to bake...and now I've found a Zero calorie way to get my cupcake fix! My friend Stacy has got me hooked on making these fun felt goodies! I still need some work but I am having a blast with them!

I am loving the felt food. It is inspiring me....hopefully more to come!!

Lil' Dress

I'm finally back to sewing! I made this dress for my girl's to wear at my sister-in-law's wedding. I think it turned out so fun. I stuffed the dress with toole so it is really poofy at the bottom. I have to finish up the second dress now...

Tutu for youyou!

I bought tulle to make a tutu for Brielle for her FIRST birthday. 3 years later I've finally made one! The ballerina outfit is the new outfit of choice. So fun. I may post a tutorial later...just for fun. It's not like they are hard to make at all. But it will make it easier for the crafty challenged.
