Hairpins (126:365)

Our internet is being wacko and it's making me crazy! I don't have the patience right now to post pictures on our amazing internet, but just know that the fabric covered button hairpins I'm making for the bazaar are super cute!

The bazaar is at the Cooper YMCA from 9am - 2pm. 

Be there or be square!

Earrings and More Earrings (125:365)

Well, the bazaar is Saturday, so basically all week I will be posting about my stress regarding it.

I'm cranking out earrings and such like a crazy person.

My biggest stress is how to package each thing.

I've bought some nice textured cardstock that will be home to them all.

That is a project for later this week though...

Buttons and more Buttons (124:365)

Getting ready for the upcoming bazaar again. 

Today I made more bookmarks and earrings.

They are so cute! Need to post a pic soon.

Cleaning the Chaos (123:365)

My mom is visiting so, of course, we went to Target
to celebrate (yesterday).

She bought us one of these sweet little things.

Now the toys in the living room are in here
 instead of under my feet.

...ahhh...

Much better.

Thanks grandma!

My First Baby Booties (122:365)

I have a baby shower today and needed something quick 

and easy to make.

I've never made these before, but decided to take a chance on them.

I think they turned pretty well.

So cute! And easy. Here is the free tut.

Thanks HomeSpun Threads!

First Snow of the Winter (121:365)

Today we all traveled out to Omaha (the big city 'round these parts) and went to the grand opening of the nearest Trader Joe's! It was great. I got a bunch of my favorite stuff, like almond meal (for baking), their amazing (and cheap!) kettle corn, and their peanut butter.

It was kind of a mad house, but fun anyway (for me at least).

Then, on the way home, we braved a little blizzard, facing snowflakes the size of ritz crackers. I got too dizzy trying to dry so luckily Scott was able to take over.

Neither of us had any idea it was supposed to snow. If we had, we would not had been brave enough to face it. Not yet. Winter isn't due yet, right?

Busy Bee (120:365)

Today I was a procrastinating little busy bee.

I got a lot of things done, yet nothing for the craft fair!

Breath...

Well, since I did stuff I'll just share it with you all so you can see how productive I can be when I'm avoiding productivity.

First up, Dee and I made some gummy snowmen. We bought a kit from Target the other day and we had a lot of fun making them. Not hard at all and I'm looking forward to doing it again.

 

Then I finally rehung the curtains Dee accidentally ripped out of the wall like 2 months ago.



 Then I hung up some shelves I bought for $1 each at a garage sale like 3 months ago up in the girls' room.



Dee wanted me to make her some clip on earrings the other day. She picked the fabric from my stash all by herself. Here she is, sporting those cute things.


Recently, at Hobby Lobby, I found a sign that explains how I feel about doing laundry and had to buy it to make me feel better in that room of dreariness.


And for dinner, I made some egg rolls, but baked them instead of frying them.
They turned out pretty good. Different, but still good. Definitely worth the less calories and fat.


So, that is what I did today instead of working on my craft fair stuff.
Yeah, I'm a good procrastinator.
