ABC's...

I made these magnet letters for my niece for one of her first Christmas's.  Now that we have our own little one I really want to make some for her.  I had put magnets on the back of these but I think I will wait on the magnets until Sadie gets older.  I can always add them later:)

Have you ever made something for someone as a gift and then afterwards you realize you like it so much you want it for your own?

Nursery Themes....

What are your thoughts on nursery themes?  I am in that "nesting" but feeling kind of stuck.  I bought this awesome rug on Urban Outfitters one because I loved it and two because of the good price.   It has already come in it seems to be a bit brighter than this picture from the website.   I am debating on if we should paint Sadie's room or if we should keep it the white color that it already is....ahhh what to do?

Is Pinterest interesting to you?

I think I may be a bit obsessed.  Pinterest is the one thing that brings me closer to crafting and yet farther away.  I have found many things on Pinterest that I have actually done but I have also spent hours on Pinterest looking at numerous things and all the awhile I could have made one of those things during that time of looking! 

It's just right there..waiting for me to search something.  Are you obsessed too?

Follow me and I'll follow you ;)

DIY vintage suitcase!

I love DIY projects....  Here is a recent one I did.

I mod podged my vintage briefcase that I got at the goodwill outlet for $2.  It was so easy and fun!

I got the idea from both of the following awesome blogs....

The above suitcase are from A Beautiful Mess

And this one is from Skunkboy

Thrift store re-do!

Another thrift store re-do!  I found this dress at a thrift store a few months ago.....I was some where around $4.  I was looking through my box of finds that I still need to do something with and decided to go for it!  I shortened it, took it in on the sides and there you have it!  Good as new :)
