Rolled Flower Shirt

I love those rolled flower necklaces that are popular right now and I wanted to make one for my little girl, but knowing her- she would take it off in about 2 seconds. So I came up with another idea that would give me the look but would't tempt her to take it off. 


I just hot glued the flowers to the shirt so it looks like a necklace- but it's not:)


I had been toying with this idea for a couple months now and I had actually made one for my little baby and it turned out cute, but the shirt that I had been planning on using for my 2 year old was a white Downeast shirt that was kind of a staple in her wardrobe. Last night she got into my permanent markers and colored on the top of the shirt... I tried my hardest to get the marker out, but it wasn't budging. So my decision was made easier. It was either throw the shirt away or cover up the marker somehow. 

It turned out great and you can't see any sign of marker. Perfect!

Plus- no outfit is complete without a matching hair bow, right??



And of course we had to make one for little Miss T to match- so here is her version.


I got this onsie at Children's place on the clearance rack for $2.99. It had a little pocket on it that I took off to fit the flowers.



It was cute before but I am liking the after a lot better:) Plus now I have a shirt to go with the Rick Rack Skirt!

Spring Wreath

My ward has a craft group and we get together once  month and craft, eat, talk, and laugh.
Usually we talk so much that none of us ever finish our crafts! 

In April while I was home visiting family they made wreaths and I had them save mine for me to make once I got home. It was such a great idea and everyone's wreaths turned out so cute and so different even though we all used the same materials! 



Crafting together in a group is so fun because you are able to see each other's ideas as you make your own- plus it is SO FUN! It's one of my favorite things each month! 

Pink and Blue Rolled Flower Wreath

I was introduced to rolled flowers about two months ago and now I can't get enough of them! I love them and decided to make an entire wreath out of them... Not a quick venture in the least! I watched half a season of 24 on netflix while I worked on this puppy! Each night when my girls went to bed I worked on it for an hour or two and slowly but surely it came along... Here is the finished product!
