Craft, Create, Celebrate Life

I am so happy to be doodling and crafting again. I have found so much inspiration on Pinterest, that I am in aww of it all. On the down side I started writing my Christmas cards a bit late this year and I won’t be able to send all the ones I had planned
I knew I had my grandma’s needles somewhere in my home. I used to crochet so much because I really enjoyed it so much and over time I put it to the back burner.
I have started a few stitches and now almost have a nice kitchen towel. I will post pictures soon of my progress, it has come back to me so quickly I am amazed.
My kids just loved these bunny masks, they wore them all day long. Funny they didn’t have so much fun with the one I made lol.
Even my lil guy wouldn’t take it off. The only bad thing is the glue kept coming undone, but I did check out Oriental Trading and this is a known defect with them. Just pulled out the handy dandy glue and re-glue. They played with them non stop after the little repair.
Here is the complete package
2 pkgs of gummy bunnies (they ate so quick I didn’t even get to try them.)
1 bunny balloon which they share so well
1 awesome book my older son read to my lil guy
5 nice recipes for me to try yay!
Some nice stickers and a few other lil odds and end
The big package of cookies were delicious we all tried those and loved them.
What do you think of this package from Australia from KrisKringle from swap bot?
I saw this mask tutorial here and I wanted so bad to be a person who can sew, and I thought I would try it. It looked easy and I think my sewing machine can handle it. (maybe) Well I did it yay for me hehe here is how mine turned out, what do you think? Please don’t be too hard on me it was my first try at sewing :-0
Here is my sewing trial, not great huh, so I decided to not put new thread on the bobbin to make the lines red. I thought if I took it out I wouldn’t know how to put it back in sigh. I improvised and sewed with the white thread and then took fabric paint in red and went over the line.
Here is the mask with the line pained in, I think it came out pretty neat.
Here is my little itty bitty machine. I can hear the crowd giggling now lol, Okay but it works really, it does pretty well. I hope one day to upgrade to a true machine if my skills improve. I think then I can convince my husband to buy me a real machine (sigh)
