Busy and Crafty

Thing have been pretty busy since

The Big Move.

We are all slowly adjusting and getting

acclimated to our new lives here.

It's definitely weird not having

our usual social outings with

friends, so I've been finding

other things to fill the empty time.

In between all my school work,

running the kids around,

and doing stuff for the kid's school,

I have been feeling very crafty!

I've been making a lot of

flower clips

for Marci's hair.

Made a Witch Hat & pouffy skirt

for our Witch Bunko

Made a Poodle Skirt for the

Sock Hop at school.

I also had to make a basket for

the Silent Auction at the

Sock Hop. A huge

Shrink Wrap debacle ensued in

the making of the basket. But

I finally found success and wish

I would have taken a picture

of the dang thing!

Especially after seeing the

other classes' baskets..

mine was one of

the BEST!

Then I made this chick costume for

Marci's "Dictionary Day" at school.

The tutu looks way adorable

in person! Marci got a lot of

compliments on her outfit.

I am still finding little yellow feathers

all over my house though!

An up-close look at my hat.

I think it definitely suits my personality!

The bow I made for

Marci's chick costume

I'm having a lot of fun making the bows.

Especially since they are so

much cheaper to make!

Most of the bows cost on average

30 cents

to make, as opposed to the $6-$10

they cost in the boutiques!!

I'm having fun with it and it keeps me

busy and Marci loves them so

I guess I'll continue to do it

until I get bored of it.

A bunch of people told me I should

sell them, but I don't know if I

want the headache

of arranging all of that!
