MIA

M.I.A. is what I have been for a few months! But I'm so ready to be back. The beginning of summer roped me in. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but am excited to share some of the 'stuff' I made in the mean time....stay tuned :)

In the mean time, get excited, and go check out my newest blog friend ......

Make it Loverly


If she doesn't inspire you, I don't know if anything will, and that's what we are all here for right....a little inspiration???!!!

I L-O-V-E her ideas and think she is a super fab decorator, photographer, and creator.....on a dime (which I also LOVE.)

a birthday to remember....Boston Red Sox

So for those of you who are not lucky enough to know my little family (JOKE), my little boy is obsessed with sports. SO, I felt it would be appropriate to throw him a Boston Red Sox birthday party!

I'd say it turned out pretty cute :) I hope it gives you a little inspiration. And if you need some ideas for a little girly birthday, check out The Krazy Crafty Lady and her lemonade party, which is SUper Cute :)

So first the invitations... They turned out cute........ I thought.



So why am I telling you this? Well my sweet neighbor, who moved into the area not too long ago, showed up to the party at 3 while we were cleaning up. She informed me that she has been driving around looking for Fenway Park for the last 3 hours.....OOOOOPS! She must not watch baseball, right??? I felt horrible!


(You'll have to excuse the balloons. They were tortured by the wind the entire day ;)

The entry...




a ball game wouldn't be complete with out the concessions ;)







The birthday boy himself....



And his little cheerleader, of course.... ( oh, you ask about that cute little skirt? yep, I made it, and there will be a tutorial soon:)


Welcome to FENWAY PARK!




Boston Red SOX!








AND the Pinata of course.... So NOT last year!


And lastly, the cupcake cake!




A great Birthday for a GREAT little boy!

super easy cutsie tutu!



I made this darling tutu for my brother's new sweet babe. It was VERY easy and turned out perfect!

Supplies:

1. 1 crochet headband
2. tulle in colors desired
3. scissors

Tutorial:

1. Start by measuring and cutting your tulle in length desired. I cut mine 12 inches for a newborn. Maybe 14 inches for 6-12 months.




2. Next, tie two pieces of tulle in each hole, alternating colors, if you wish ;) You could tie one piece per hole if you want it less full...



3. It's that easy! Fluff up a bit, and put on your cute little babe ;)

(note: you can also remove the previous covering if you wish. This would take more work and time so I dont know why you would. I just covered over the old.

4. After you trim the excess fabric, simply have your cute handyman replace the cushions on with the screwdriver.....and.......
