BABY SHOWER CRAFTS...

Back in August, I co-hosted a baby shower for a dear friend of mine.  We wanted it for both Mommy and Daddy to be, so we decided on a Pot Luck Barbeque.  We were on a very tight budget and short timeline, so luckily, this kept me from going too over the top.  Everything that we did was simple and beautiful.

It all started with these Pom-Poms.  I saw them here, and knew they would be perfect for hanging over the food table.


Then I found this adorable Wish Mobile here.  The exact thing for friends and family to leave sentimental and loving notes for baby and Mommy and Daddy.


And then we added a few other crafty touches...

Isn't this Owl cake simply adorable?  I can not take credit for it, however.  The grandmother was kind enough to make it.  I knew she was bringing the cake, but I had no idea it would be this wonderful.


 It was supposed to have been a Surprise shower, but it didn't work out quite like that. However, both Mommy and Daddy to be, had a wonderful time and left with many gorgeous gifts for little Miss Elsie.

PUPPY LOVE

Today, February 1st, is Luke's girlfriend's, Laci, Birthday. Now really, he's only three - I know he's too young to have a girlfriend, but the first time I witnessed this "friendship" was back in October during their pre-school field trip to the Pumpkin Patch.
Then again a few weeks ago on the night of their pre-school Christmas program.
How could he not "love" this cute little redhead he calls "Weezy" ('cause he can't pronounce "Laci")?

Anyway, because I don't have any little girls to make cute little hair things for, I thought this "Birthday" would be the perfect opportunity for me to make a "cute little hair thing".

And so I did...
A little felt, a little hot glue, a few little rhinestones, and Ta-Da...
A Cute Little Hair Thing!
I've also been wanting to try to make little tissue paper rosettes, so I made a few to adorn the gift bag.

Aren't they sweet?

I hope the weather doesn't keep Luke from going to school tomorrow to give his little lady her present.
