baby Oliver's room

Here's some pictures of Oliver's room:

 

 

 

 

vinyl on glass frames

Here's a craft I recently did for both of our bathrooms. It was quick and easy. You just glue the glass onto the frame with hot glue, then adhere your vinyl lettering. (The only hard part is not cutting your fingers while dealing with the glass, which I never managed)

 

 

kids rooms

I know I already posted a bit about these projects on our family blog, but here's a closer look, and also some pictures of the decorating that's completed. I cut out vinly lettering with my silhouette machine, and put that up on the wall in both her room and our baby boy's room. Everything has been a lot of work, but I'm really happy with the way their rooms look...here's a closer look at the projects:

The vinyl I cut out for our baby boys room "twinkle twinkle little star, do you know how loved you are?"

The little chair in Sabrina's room we refinsihed ($5)

The dresser we refinsihed ($20)

Her name abover her bed, (she's sleeping!)

The letter "S" with adjetives to describe her I cut out with vinyl, a shelf I refinsihed ($3) and a glass block I made with the vinyl as well

The vinyl I cut out and hung above the guest bed "no joys on earth can bring greater pleasure, than a little girl to love and treasure"

Her bed with the quilt and little pillow my mom and I sewed

The rocking chair we refinished ($15), and the cushion my friend and I made

Close up of the curtains my mom and I sewed

the guest bed with a pull out we refinshed ($100)

The pillows my mom and I made

crayon roll

I made these crayon rolls when my sister came to visit. We made a camouflage one for her son that turned out cute too. Sabrina likes it, especially with the twistable crayons. I thought this would be fun for her church bag and travel. (thanks to my sister in law Geneva who showed me the cute idea of the crayon roll off one of her friends blog) There are flaws as sewing is not one of my talents, or something I enjoy, but Sabrina doesn't even notice the flaws!



We also made a bunch of cards (30 each to be excact) They were all the same style, just different papers and sentiments. They were fun to make.

scrapbook pages

These are some of the scrapbook pages I've done for Sabrina's book. None of these were done recently, but someday I'll get some extra time and post some new pages.

family home evening board

I made 4 of these family home evening boards for Christmas-a big project! Anthony helped me cut the wood, and then I cut the vinyl with my silohette machine. I was happy with the way they turned out. They sell at deseret book, but I couldn't justify in buying one when I knew I could make one for a lot less.

Christmas gifts

I've been busy getting Christmas gifts all made, and I'm finally done!
I made 10 Christmas plates with almond roca, peanut brittle, turtles, carmels, carmel fudge, chocolate mint cookies and oreo choclate balls. Everything tasted good. I made tags for all my gifts too.



My next project was gifts for my friends. I made these glass blocks you just buy at lowes, then adhered vinyl lettering on, and tied it with a bow and berries. They look really pretty with a light behind it.



I made tile pictures that you display on a book holder for my mom and Anthony's mom. I believe I'm safe posting a picture of these before I see them at Christmas, as I don't think either of them check the blog regularly. If they do, I guess there goes a surprise! Anyway, I made an everyday use tile, and one for each of the seasons. I want to make me a set later on for myself when I feel ambitious.



I also made one other thing for my sister and my sister in law, but I'll have to wait to post that one until after Christmas.
