The Guitar Mobile

A new friend of mine liked the heart mobile that I made for Sophia and asked me if I could do a guitar one for her rock star son. Here is what I came up with.

Marbleizing With Spray Paint

A friend taught me how to use spray paint and water on canvas to make these cool designs. So easy and so fun! Just find fun colors, spray the water, dip the canvas and let them dry. Water will pill up on them, but it goes away when they dry. You can layer the paint to make certain colors stand out. I used a paint pen on one to draw butterflies, it turned out pretty neat. Enjoy!

A couple new things

I am going to be a bit "lazy" and include two different things on the same post. So far, each of these are some of my favorites made of felt.

For the lovers of......

The Center Pointe Quilt

Everybody needs to have that one person in their life that cheers them on and makes them feel like a million bucks. I am blessed to have many people like that in my life, but none more than my friend Ashley. When all I see are a series of straight lines sewn together, she sees a masterpiece and tells all her friends about it. She was the first person to trust me to take a rotary cutter to her prized sorority shirts and knew before I did that I could make them into something she would cherish forever. Then she convinced her dad to to the same with his marathon shirts! And NOW!!! Now I got to do something truely amazing! There is no greater compliment than a friend asking you to make something they can give as a gift. What a great gift I get to make for her! She asked me to make a T-Shirt quilt to honor her pastor! How great is that?!?!?! I am just so thrilled to be a part of something so amazing! Thanks Ashley for always believing in me!!! And a BIG HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to Center Pointe Church!!!

Friendly Swap

I met a lady at the park with two young boys (and now a girl on the way) a while ago who recently had a yard sale to pass on some blue clothes to make room for some pink. I was running low on clothes for David and she was more than happy to give me a bag for two shirts for her boys. How awesome is that??? I made my all-time favorite rocket for her young one, but for the other a robot was requested. I love a little bartering!!! The clothes she gave me were adorable!

Library Bag

A new library bag! I put a foam mat on the bag that the reader can personalize with markers. :)
