Craft time

Mother Daughter craft time!  

Christmas is upon us and cold weather finally hit Georgia today...the cold, wet, dreary, gray sky kinda winter

day.  No outdoors and thank goodness I had planned ahead.  Craft time! Today it was all about our ornament addition to our Christmas tree.  Since my hubby and I got married we would go to the nearby Just Kiln'Time and paint our ornaments and date it.  In a spin off of that idea I went in search of the simple, clear ornaments found at our local Hobby Lobby.

All we needed was some glitter, some paint, and some super cute toddler hand to create our fun new ornaments.

Colorful glitter

  The glitter inside was super easy!  Take some liquid soap, or floor wax, pour it inside the ornament. Make sure to get all of the inside wet.  Pour the glitter inside and shake shake shake (created a paper cone for easy pour.)  Sophia was a great shaker!  Place the lids back on and had a blast painting!

This might just be our new Christmas tradition! 

Who Who's that girl

Did not want to let too much time pass before I finally posted my little owl and her costume for Halloween 2011.  She's such a hoot and so wise for her age (her name means wisdom) that there seemed no better choice for her this year but to be Sophia the Wise Owl (as we called her!)  It was super easy costume to make.  Loved how bright and cheery it came out, fitting for a happy owl!  All I needed was some fleece, felt (found on the clearance bins at Hobby Lobby) and left over fabrics from previous projects!  

Whoo Whoo!

Ready!

 Special Special thanks to Over the Rainbow Creations for a fabulous job on the hat.  Can't wait for more! 

Current things in the works, Christmas gifts!  So will add a few small projects that I can post before Christmas.

Happy Crafting!
