creative little daisy

Okay....so Ive been looking at all these other blogs with these amazing crafty women and Im hoping mine looks a little like theirs. I dont know..I dont know if anyone actually reads mine, Im not sure how to get comments and spread the word. My favorite blog so far is "creative little daisy" she has so made so many beautiful things...it keeps me inspired.

Ive been trying these rag rugs for awhile now and I really like the way they look.

My boys





These are my beautiful boys. Austin, Brogan and Ean. I love them more than anything!!!!!

MY ROOM!!!!






This is my room. It used to be nothing but storage space. I actually have a vanity now to put my makeup on and get dressed. The fireplace was a christmas present from my husband. I would love to be able to say that this is a kid free zone but alas, that would be a lie......note the two little sleeping bags next to the fireplace for two little boys who love to sneak up to my bed at night. They claim my floor is soo much more comfortable then theirs, which is really amazing considering they have the EXACT same floor in their room! HHMMMM!

Ean's Room





This is little Ean beans room. It took us FOREVER to do the stripes. People who are OCD like my husband should never do this!

Family Room



We just put new carpet down here. I has a very small square pattern to it.

Computer Room




This is the new computer room. Daryl calls it the mustard room. The boys love their desks and they do all their homework there.

The boys room




This is the boys room, I love the red color and we put up some vintage sports posters!

Bibs



my new bibs!

New Bag



This is my newest bag with beaded handles!

More Fabric!




I found this beautiful fabric at a neat little store called " Wooden Bridge Fabrics " in Kutztown.

weekend

Well I never did get around to posting that tutorial on the baby bibs...but I will soon. I promise. I did spend the weekend sewing just not any of the fabric that I showed you on here. I went and got new fabric and made another bag I had been thinking about for awhile. Annddd....I made the coolest looking handles out of material and beads. As soon as I can I will upload a pic of it. I bought some more bins to try and get my sewing area straightened up and hopefully I will get it all done tomorrow so hopefully I will be able to sew all day wednesday :)

my house





My house has been a work in process but here are a few pics of two of the rooms that are FINALLY done!

material


I also bought new material for a bag I keep visualizing in my head. Trying to get it from my head to a workable pattern has been a challenge. When I finally? get it done I will post it.

making bibs


I have the cutest pattern for vintage baby bibs. I went to Joannes yesterday and finally used all the last of my coupons on material to make a few. I cant wait....I love the cherry print! If I get time over the weekend I will put up a tutorial on how to make them..they really are sooooo simple(the pattern not me :)

Well here goes nothing. I dont know why I've decided to blog, I've been reading alot of blogs lately and I guess they just seem like alot of fun. Im not sure what type of blog mine will be..wether it will be funny, cute , or just plain serious. I guess time will tell. Im a stay at home mom of 3 boys and I am just starting a bag making business..well at least trying to. Maybe thats what Ill blog about..my attempt to be great!
