Baby Shower Mobile

My dear friend and co-worker, Michelle, is having a baby in a few months. I asked her if there was anything I could make for her, and she gave me one really cute idea. Check it out!


I stared with a quick trip to Michael's and a browse on Amazon. I knew she wanted clouds and a Cow Jumped Over the Moon theme to it. 


Using the feather boa, I made some clouds that also hid where I tied the jewelry wire to the hoop and helped it all stay in place. 


The Swarovski crystals were glued to make some floating stars...


And little start and moon elements hung from the end of each strand. 


A cow in the middle, and I was done! 

Pintrest Inspired Sewing Projects

I went on a sewing project binge a little while ago, all inspired by Pins I had seen. Here are a few of them...


Coffee sleeves (reversible!) by crafty Staci


I got carried away and made 2 Bapron's by Craftiness is not Optional


Baby blankets inspired by ecBloom

And then I bought some yellow and grey fabric I had to have, so I found a few others:  

 A bowtie by Martha


And one for a little boy (it is a pin) inspired by Kiki Creates



 Finally, a very useful garbage bag for my car, inspired by Make It - Love It. 
(I squared my corners to help it keep some more shape, but otherwise the same thing.)
