I love the skull and crossbones hats for the boys. When I saw a pic of them I made them the next day! They're adorable!!!!
These hats look so cute on the boys. They are my little monsters!!!!
THey give everyone else kisses so I thought that they should learn to give each other kisses too!!!!!
Martha Stewart has a link on her website somewhere that I found and she has patterns on how to create a crossstitched family portrait. I fell in love and made one for my family! I think it turned out so cute!
Well, first and foremost, I gave birth to two beautiful twin boys on February 8, 2012. They have certainly kept me busy busy busy!!!!!! I don't know how I find in between all the baby things that I have to do to craft, but I find a way and get a lot of crafting done!
I love these flower wreaths. I made this one after making several for my mother. She wanted one for every holiday. I made 3 for her....oh well I still have time to make more.
A friend at work taught me how to make these crochet bags out of recycled plastic bags. It's fun and super easy to do. I love the idea that they'[re made from recycled bags.
This pillow sits on our couch. I have to keep it out of the boys' reach because they like to put the petals in their mouth and pull them off. I think it came our really nice. I recently started these memory boxes that I saw Darcy Miller display on Martha Stewart. She's awesome! this first one is a picture of my boys every month since they've been born.
This is a wedding box that I made right after we got married.
This box has the two outfits that we put the boys in the day that they both came home from the hospital (which was not the sane day). My ultrasound pic is in there and a pic taken when they were first born. A premie diaper, their circumcision rings, and the cords that they wore to moritor their hearts in the NICU. The backround is the newspaper printed the day they were born.
This is a Christmas tree ornament made out of beads.
I knit these hats for my boys before they were born. Some of them were very worn, and others were only worn once. I guess I went a little overboard with the knitting but you know how I love my hats.
I have a picture obsession. I take a million pics of my boys and everything else.When they were first born I started making picture books in three month increments to document the beginning of their lives.
One day I accidentally came across a picture of the snowflake ornament in the bottom right corner and I had to make it. It then spiraled into my making a million more for Christmas gifts this year and one for every year Augie and I have been together.
I started making quiet books for the boys a few months ago. They love them and I love them too. I made them each a book that spells out their name.
The alligator has a zipper mouth that the numbered fish can go into.
Finger puppets
The house opens up to stick people that each represent someone in our family.
The apple tree's apples come off and and be put into the apple barrel.
The giraffe's neck is made of beads that spell out giraffe. The space ship goes up and down in a ribbon.
Let's build a sandcastle!
Tools for our toolbox!
These are i-spy games that I made for each of the boys for our big road trip coming up in July!
I used empty parmesean cheese containers to put the boys' crayons in.
Buckets filled with activities for our road trip. They have quiet books, regular books, mr potato head, puzzles, magnadoodles, magnetic letters and a cookie sheet to play with them on, magnetic faces with parts to change the expression, Leapfrogs with letters and animals, markers and coloring books, clear backpacks to put some toys in for travel, rubber balls that light up, letter rings, small toys, etc.
I am in full crafting mode so I will definitely be posting more pics of the things that I get done as I get them done. I really want to have a picture posted of everything that I make so that I can always remember the things that I've spent time on. In the meantime, I'll be playing with my boys and loving being a mom!!!!!
