Baby Shower



My mom, my sister and I recently threw a shower for my other sister.  It was so much fun!  I made a paper bag book for the guest book and I put together a motorcycle diaper cake.  We had brunch and decorated bibs and visited and had a great time.   I can't wait to see her little bundle of joy.  

There is a tutorial for the motorcycle diaper cake at sweetaprils.com.

Tangled movie night



For Mutual the girls wanted to have a Tangled movie night and I figured, why not?  And while we're at it, let's make it a party!

Here are links to the printables I used:

The water bottle labels and popcorn bag labels are ones that I made on my own.

I think everyone had a great time, I know I did.

Wonder Woman costume


For Halloween this year I didn't want to make all of our costumes, so we used a couple we already had and bought a couple others.  We decided to all be Justice League superheroes but I didn't have a costume and it is impossible to find an adult women's costume that doesn't look more like a swimsuit than clothing.  So I ended up making my wonder woman costume.  I used freezer paper to make a stencil and painted the logo on a shirt.  Then I used felt for the tiara, cuffs and belt.  The cape is no sew, just a piece of red fabric cut like a cape.  And the skirt is a simple circle skirt with white stars attached.  I thought it would be a pretty simple costume to make and it was, but it took quite a bit of time.
