Ahoy Matey---the shirts are ready for Daddy-Daughter Day!

Someday, I really am going to learn how to sew. Until then, Heat and Bond to the rescue!!! Tomorrow is Daddy-Daughter day at "Bugs" preschool and since its a Pirate Theme, I decided to make them matching shirts!



Cute, huh? I just did the Heat and Bond thing, with different pieces of fabric, cut out the shapes and ironed it on.

I cannot wait to hear all about their special day together!!

Arrrrrrrrrrrggggggggg!!!

This Wednesday is Daddy Day at "Bugs" preschool and the theme of the day is Pirates!!! I'm on the search for a quick and easy "costume" idea for Daddy and Bug to wear to their big day! :) (another moment when I start daydreaming about the Silhouette machine I'll be asking Santa to bring me);)

Anyway, I'm thinking I will make them some matching t-shirts and then Bug can wear her black tutu and some striped tights. Here are some of my inspirations...

Lovin' this cute lil t-shirt design from at Pirates Coveonline

Little Pumpkin Baby Shower!

Last year, I hosted a Little Pumpkin Baby Shower for my fabulous neighbor, Rashida. It is SUCH a fun shower theme for this time of year! I did some research and then executed a fun and fabulous plan!

I ordered these ADORABLE invitations from Candles and Favors.com and matching favors tags too!


Made this cute little diaper wreath following Crafster.orgs Diaper Wreath Tutorial I used a double wire wreath form from Hobby Lobby and blue and brown ribbon that I weaved around the diapers. (The preemie diapers from Dollar General are perfect for this project!) The possibles for decorating this wreath are ENDLESS and its SUPER easy!!!

I followed Katydidandkid’s Banner Tutorial to make Baby David's banner!

My house was already decorated for fall so the Pumpkin theme fell right into place. (I found this little bib in the dollar section at Target. The had really cute lil pumpkin bowls but as usual, I forgot to take pictures of the food.)

I set up a little inspiration and advice station. Each guest had a piece of card stock to write on. After the shower I turned it into a little book and gave it to the mommy-to-be.



I LOVE fall and cannot wait to see Rashida and David's lil pumpkin turn ONE!
