I have wanted to try scrap material tea towels for a while. I used left over 1/4 yrd. pieces from a project. Looking at my dish towels I looked at the size I wanted my finished towel to be. I turned my cloth inside out and sewing the edges and left an opening to turn the towel ride side out. I sewed the seam shut. Next I added some my other cloth making sure no unfinished edges were left out. Including the lace edges. Last I hemmed and added a ruffle to the bottom. They were perfect gifts!

yarn string eggs

This is in our girls room.

 Using egg foam balls. I hot glued white yarn
around and around the egg. I really didn't have to use a lot of hot glue just little dabs. The most important thing was to keep the yarn tight as I rolled the string onto the foam egg.

Joy Christmas Banner

This Christmas I was in charge of our Churches Relief Society Craft. I decided to make a Joy Banner. Hobby lobby has really cute polka dot wired ribbon. I Cut three six in pieces, then folded them in half to cut the triangle slit on the bottom. Next I used red acrylic paint, hobby lobby stencil letters, and a stencil sponge to stencil on each letter. I used medium sized clothes line clips that I stained light brown. It is attached to Hemp string found in Hobby Lobby's bead section  

Pipe cleaner and bead love sign. Today two of my kids help me make a Valentine love sign. 

We pulled out of our craft box pipe cleaners and red beads. 

I measured out five pipe cleaners and tied them together to get the length I wanted for my sign.

We first put on the beads, and then tied them together to make the cursive letters

With our leftover beads and pipe cleaners we made bead hearts for our love trees.

A touch of crows. Dollar store crows added among the pumpkins for Halloween.

Halloween Houses. Thrift Store $1 houses, black paint, and gold glitter.

Girl Dresser Remodel.

I primed the dresser white. The outside of dresser I used a home depot paint called White Pegasus. The drawers are paint a light purple. I then used white to stencil on a small diamond pattern. The handles I painted with silver paint that I had on hand. From Lowe's I bought four legs for $12. My husband helped me drill and attach the legs to the bottom of the dresser.
