Pallet Art

I've seen these pallet art creations all over pinterest and I've been wanting to create one. So I snagged a pallet, and after sanding and cleaning, I assembled it & began painting. I wanted to paint something to hang in the girls room, something nature and girly. I'm pretty happy with the result :)

Beautiful Headband

I FINALLY made myself a headband!!!! Bout time!!! lol

Minion Smash Cake

This is probably the cutest cake I've ever made!! I was hired by Beckal's Photography to recreate a cake that was found on Pinterest. Originally because of the limited time frame I was given, they only asked for one minion. Since I had time, I added a few more to make it more fun!!! They were totally in love with it!

One of A Kind Christmas Stockings

I am so very excited to share the four versions of stockings I created for all four of my kids. For a few years I have been meaning to make my kids stockings but it kept getting put off. I decided this was the Christmas I would finally make them, and I'm so happy I did!

Each one is custom designed and created myself. I drew out my own patterns for each of the characters and bought coordinating fabrics to match. These took a LOT of hard work but have so much attention to detail & are very sturdy. I used batting & created an insert so you don't see the batting on the inside, and no seams are showing. These are so sturdy and so wide that they fit a LOT of goodies for my kids on Christmas day & stood upright perfectly!

 It sure was a beautiful Christmas this year!

A Tiny Love For Owls

So I've always had a small love for owls, but it wasn't until I became an adult that I truly appreciated them, especially to incorporated in my home decor. I have been doing a lot of keepsake things with my daughter Hailey because she our last child of four, and I know these precious baby moments are fleeting so fast. A close friend of mine recently made these & I knew I wanted one for my own tree!!!

Little salt dough snowy owl ornaments!! A beautiful keepsake to always cherish on my tree every year!!! It's so simple and so cute!!!

Here is how to make them!

What you'll need:

2 cups flour

1 cup salt

1 cup warm water

(Olive Oil)

• Preheat oven to 250'
• Combine flour & salt. Gradually knead in warm water. You can add a little olive oil to make it less sticky. Knead for about 10 mins.
• Mold your ornament with your hands and not a rolling pin. Press your handprint.
• Cook for about 5 hours or until your ornament cooked through. You may need to set them on a wire rack so they'll cook through.
• Let them cool and then paint! Attach anything you'd like to make it unique!

Pallet Shelf

So this past Fall my husband and I built a pallet shelf that I had been dying to make. I found a similar idea off of pinterest, but we changed it slightly to make it our own. The pallet was free, so all that we spent was about $7 for the paint, and to this day, it's my most favorite shelf in our place!!

Alaskan Handmade Mitten Ornaments

These ornaments are simply beautiful, and they are designed and made entirely by myself. I decided to create a beautiful ornament to give out to all my friends & family this Christmas, and decided on making mittens!! These are so adorable & so far everyone just loves them!! It makes me truly happy just to spread a little happiness during the most wonderful time of the year!

These are VERY simple to make!! Just take a sheet of paper & trace out a mitten pattern. Cut out and pin to felt. You'll need to cut out four mitten shapes (two for each mitten). Take some embroidery thread and sew around the edges, leaving the top open. Stuff with polyfil and glue some lace around the top. Make sure you add your twine to the inside of the mitten before gluing it shut. Add some decorations & buttons & you have the perfect new addition to your tree!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
