New Years Eve Tradition

I saw this fun idea on kojodesigns about a couple of ideas to do for New Years. I haven't ever done anything real productive on this holiday so this would be a fun idea! Not that getting together with family and eating, hanging out and staying up till the wee hours of the morning isn't productive...:)

Cute Yarn Monograms




These aren't even what the post I saw on Kojo Designs is about, but I LOVE these cute monograms! Made with yarn and some embellishments, there are so many fun things you could do with these. Ornaments. Kids decor...

Little Leggings

Made from sweater sleeves, again from Kojo Designs

"Super Simple" Pom Pom hat


Fun! From Kojo Designs

Ruffled Newborn Skirt


This also comes from Kojo Designs and is made from a t-shirt! And the best part is that I have a sweet little babe in my house that I can make one of these for!

Comfy Boys Lounge Pants

Made from an old t-shirt! I want these in my size, they look so comfy! Tutorial found on Kojo designs

Chalkboard Pillow


Very cool idea! From a new blog I found: Infarrantly Creative

cutie felt flowers


Super cute huh? I love how she burned the edges. Never would've thought to burn felt! From Joy Is At Home

Beady Wreath


BEAUTIFUL! From Joy Is At Home

Candy Trees

Fun! This could be a fun twist on gingerbread houses! Found on C.R.A.F.T.

Ornament Wreath


I know I've said this before, but I'm going to say it again: I LOVE WREATHS! It's a fetish and I admit it. This one definitely doesn't disappoint. I think I might even have time to make it this holiday season...I saw this here on Gluesticks, and she used this site as a reference when making hers.

Ruffle Fabric

This Ruffle Fabric is going to be the new craze I think and I think it's so fun! So many possibilities for a sweet little girl. I saw it on Homemade By Jill, where this picture came from. I happen to also really, really like the rose she made to put on this cute hat. She didn't show how she made it, but it looks like something that I could make up on my own...
