A Crafty First Birthday

Two weeks ago, I talked about how I had been making some Pintrest inspired gifts. Well, today I gave two of the gifts at my niece's first birthday party.

The onsies I originally saw on Baby Rabies. I wasn't great at controlling the glue on either (that's why there is a splotch on the "e" in Love), and I didn't make the red dark enough on the Joy, but I think that they both came out very well.

I got the tutus from Simply Real Moms, and I love the way that they came out. Since these were a surprise, I used Peanut as a model, and had to guess what the difference would be. The red is a little longer than the purple, but both are nice a poofy.

The rest of my projects are Christmas gifts, so I'll be keeping them a secret until then.

The Evil of Pintrest

I feel like I've fallen down a rabbit hole. Pintrest has sucked me in, and now my time is not my own. I've been working on a few projects as an attempt at being a frugal gift giver (as the gift giving season is quickly approaching). I have to admit that some of these projects are coming out pretty well.

While I won't share specifics yet, I would hate to ruin the surprise, here are a few sites that I've been inspired by.
