Recycle Jeans

My neice had a birthday tonight, and so I decided to make her a purse. I had an old pair of 4T jeans that were holy and so I used them. I put a liner on the inside and a little divider down the middle of the inside. I really had fun making this. And the little jelly bean fabric made it look so cute. I am pretty sure I will be making more of these.

Valentine Wreath



I love Valentine Decorations. This is such a fun idea. I am trying to think of what I could use as
a heart shape since I don't have any styrofoam. I just love the colors of Valentine's Day.
Here is the tutorial.

SNOW much fun


A friend brought over her toy and paper, and I cut out the wood. It was fun.
*We painted blocks white
*Cut out letters
*Cut out paper & sanded it to give it a worn look.
*glued everything on
* added embellishments
Enjoy
It really wasn't a hard project. It made it quicker with us both working on it.
Our inspiration came from Heart Land Paper.

Wedding cake in 10 Minutes

I found this great YouTube video on how to make a wedding cake. The recipe sounds delicious. I have done wedding cakes before and icing is always the issue. I am dying to try this recipe because it is different than the one I have used. I typically use the Meringue powder buttercream. I would guess this icing couldn't be used on a cake that wants pure white icing because real butter is used.
