I'm crafty.......

Ok, so no, I'm really not that crafty.  But my sister Katie is.  Especially now that she's almost about to have a baby girl.  She's been making lots of cute stuff for her.  One of the many things she has done for her baby is making cute onesies.  Well, not MAKING them, but ironing on cute cut-outs.  So the other night I bought some of my own onesies and headed over to her house.  Oh my goodness, it was so easy and fun to make these cute onesies.  I had only bought a pack of 4, but I cut out some more patterns to make more.  So I need to go buy more and more cause they turned out really cute!!  My favorite is the flowers one and Jacob really likes the elephant one.



So after making them, it got my teeny tiny eensy weensy creative bone working.  I wanted to make something to hold all of Aayla hair bows.  Up until this point you could find them stuffed into her diaper bag, my bathroom drawer, her bathroom drawer, I think there were some in her sock drawer and so on.  I went to the craft store, bought a wood board, fabric, batting and ribbon.  I even borrowed my dad's staple gun.  It was super easy to make and I'm happy to finally have a spot for her bows.  I'm probably going to switch out the pink ribbon sometime though because it is too dark of a pink.  Her bathroom is white, brown and light pink, so it doesn't really match.

How fun! I used to do every craft imaginable and now that I'm older not so interested but the ones you did are very cute indeed! If you get overloaded with onesies they would make great baby shower gifts especially for some one who's having twins, hint, hint. :D
I'm excited for Katie. I think I will knit some booties for her or maybe crochet something. Any suggestions? That and sewing are the extent of my crafting.

I've seen the onesies and they are super cute. I haven't seen the bow board. I love it! Very cute indeed. So, why is it Aayla's? Couldn't be because Ellery doesn't wear bows! :)
