Wear cute Pajamas!

TO BED YOU NEVER KNOW WHO YOU'LL MEET IN YOUR DREAMS!

Do you ever hide a gift and it turns out you've only hidden it from yourself! I came across this adorable pillow when I was cleaning out a drawer in my laundry room. I purchased the pillow from a creative crafter at Quilted Bear last summer. Apparently, I bought it as a gift.

I thought it would be a cute gift along with new princess pajamas! Anyhow, I'm passing this GIFT IDEA along, but don't hide it! :)

Autumn Harvest

Posted by admin


Welcome to my Autumn Harvest Kitchen!
Come on In, we are making apple pies today in celebration of a special birthday in our home! Forget the cake, bring on the pies!

My favorite is from the Betty Crocker Recipe Book! Do you have a favorite?

A little inspiration is always good! I think Fall has the most beautiful, rich colors of all seasons!

You can't go wrong with a harvest centerpiece when you have such great colors and textures to work with!

This fall/harvest arrangement is simply made from a cake plate or any kind of pedestal plate!


This one started out as a grapevine wreath with the center filled in!

My favorite centerpieces are ones that can easily be transformed into Christmas! Happy Fall and Happy Birthday to everyone celebrating a Birthday today! Enjoy some apple pie!

SEW 4 HOME.....
I love these place mats and personalized napkins for special occasions and Holiday dinners!
I'm going to involve my kids and make these!
So simple to make! Everyone loves to see their name, it always adds a personal touch!


The directions are here.
If you don't want to sew this project, you could purchase napkins and use ribbon for the band.
I see beautiful napkins and festive ribbon every where! Michales or JoAnns will have great ribbon!


Yeah! A project for Young Women's!

Deck The Halls of Home with JOY! Delicious cupcakes, zero calories! My sewing room/craft room is feeling like the NORTH POLE! Cheers to Christmas Fabric! I love creating the cupcake bags and Tote bags and children's apron for special little ones. The aprons are so fun and REVERSIBLE! My daughter loves to play in her apron. It always brings a smile!



I love the new Holiday/Christmas fabrics! My favorites: Be Merry by My Mind's Eye(Riley Blake Designs), Quilt soup for Henry glass fabrics, Moda, Michael Miller, Ice Cream Polka Dots!
These are just a few of many! There is something magical about Christmas Fabric!



I have created new Mother/Daughter aprons in my etsy shop! They are fun, festive and welcome the Holidays with smiles!



The Riley Blake collection is so CUTE! I love the polka dots and the snowmen are such happy little guys! Now, if we could just get some snow in the southwest! Today, my little daughter was pretending that it was snowing outside. I think she noticed the snowmen and couldn't help herself! She even got out her warm winter jacket!
