Spring Crafting!

Spring crafting is SO much more fun than spring cleaning so I have been doing a lot more of the crafting and a lot less of the cleaning. It sure does make for a messy house but it's a CUTE messy house!

Spring Banner











My sister made one too and posted the tutorial here. I added some fabric flowers which I think are deliciously cute (and found the tutorial here)but now have a love-hate relationship with them. I may or may not have sewn and unsewn these flowers 3 times because the perfectionist in me couldn't deal with them being lopsided. They're still lopsided and I've decided it's cuter that way (mostly I didn't want to go for round #4 and then blame my inadequte sewing abilities on my husband...you know, do something really rational like that).

Super Cute (& VERY time consuming!) Wreath



Isn't the bird the cutest?! I found the wreath tutorial here and the bird tutorial here.

    Grandpa Tom would love that my girls have banners that bear his favorite greeting!
