Frozen Crochet Hats ~ Anna & Elsa

So for Halloween this year, I think it's obvious that most little girls wanted to be Elsa & Anna. This was no shocker with my two oldest girls. I had planned on making their entire costumes, but when I went to purchase the fabric I needed, I found premade dresses for half the cost of what it would have been to make them. So, that left me with the last thing to make, the hats/hair. I'm not very good at braiding, so this was the perfect alternative, not to mention perfect to keep their heads warm since we live in Alaska. So here are my two princesses ready for Halloween!!!

Koala Bear Hat

So I recently met this friend and while her family was at the Mitchell Raceway, her daughter Trinity won a brand new bike! Well, I guess they had just bought her a new bike like the month before, so when she found out my oldest daughter needed a bigger bike, her daughter made the selfless act of kindness to give it to her. It was seriously the sweetest thing, and I had to do something to show her how grateful I was!! So after talking with her mom, I found out she had a love for Koala bears. She used to have this very same hat but outgrew it. Yesterday I was able to finish it & tonight her mom surprised her with it. It brings such happiness and joy to my heart to see someone enjoy something I make for them.

Chicken Wire Frame

I've had this frame for almost two years, just sitting on top of a cabinet. Again, while surfing through pinterest, I saw an idea where they stapled chicken wire to a frame and attached pics & misc items as decor. I decided to do that with this frame. The chicken wire I purchased was silver, so I spray painted it brown so it would match my living room colors better. It was easy, and costed under $10, and I love it!!

Birch Bark Creation

Took a piece of birch bark, cut it down, carved a heart and our intials, and popped it in a frame! I love birch bark!!!

A Blank Canvas & A Little Paint

Decided to start painting again! For some reason, I always get the itch to paint during Fall and the first part of winter. These are my creations so far :)

Pallet Coffee Table

My husband and I took three pallets and made them into this beautiful coffee table for some very dear friends of ours. Needless to say, they loved it!!!! I'm also not going to lie, this was a pain to make, but happy that it came together so nicely!

Sewn Baby Monkeys

Found this ADORABLE pattern on pinterest of the cutest little baby monkeys ever!!! So I bought it, and made one for my youngest daughter Hailey. When my daughter Jenaye saw it, she said all she wanted for her birthday was three baby monkeys! The fact that she wanted something that I could make her and not something from the store completely melted my heart. She is my monkey after all, from the very moment she was born! So here they are, the three monkeys requested by my soon to be 6 year old!!! Where has the time gone?!?!
