TUTORIAL: T-shirt Tote Bag, 2 Ways
This is by no means an original idea, but if you haven’t seen it, I thought it would be fun to make my own tutorial. Â If you’re anything like me, you have stacks of old t-shirts you don’t really like to wear anymore (because they’re so bloomin’ old!) but you can’t bear to part with […]
Nap Mat Tutorial
Call me ambitious… call me crazy… call me pregnant. Â I added yet ANOTHER crafted item to my list of things to do or make before Baby comes. Â Since Ryder is no longer sleeping in a crib, I wanted to give him a cozy place to lay his little head when we travel. Â A quick online […]
