Custom Glam aprons!

Have a love for baking? Why not look glam even in the kitchen :) I fell in LOVE with these aprons after I made it, I wanted to keep them for MYSELF! lol.. They are even cuter in person too. These are the 1st 2 i've ever made, so they arent perfect, but i'm learning :) Enjoy!

This apron was made as a gift for a lady with a bakery :)

Thanks for looking! Happy crafting!

DIY Army wreath for Valentine's Day

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this wreath I made! Since I will be spending yet another V-Day without my hubby :( I thought I would make one of these for our door! My side of the heart is SO me, lol Hot pink, damask print, flowers and BLING!

You need 1 ACU top, or about 1/2 yrd of acu fabric and 1/2 yrd of coordinating fabric. I used Pinking shears to cut my strips to prevent frays ( i think it looks better too) but you can use regular straight edge scissors too.

Materials:

Pinking shears or regular scissors
ACU material
coordinating material
Wire wreath frame
ruler

Cut your strips of fabric 2in by 6in... You need ALOT of them, dependingon how full you want your wreath.

Okay, I couldnt find a heart shaped frame, but i did find this heart wreath with garland on it at the craft store, so I simply cut off the garland and Voila! You can see the back of the frame in this pic.

Once the garland is off, just start tieing your strips on one at a time. I just did a single knot and thats it!!

You can add any type of embellishment you would like, I added my hubbys name tag and some fabric flowers :)

Enjoy! Happy Crafting!

Army ACU purses custom made for Deana & the girls!

Enjoy! Happy crafting!

This is the little birthday outfit I made for a little boy's 1 yr Bday and a matching monogramned cover button hair~bow for his older sister :)
