We are excited to share some of the new spring items that have been added to the collection! Annie of Paint the Moon Photography did us the honor of photographing some of these new pieces and once again, she blew us away.
Last weekend we went to my niece’s first birthday party….cupcake themed! My sister-in-law Jenn did an amazing job and made everything herself…..including 50 cupcakes and tissue pom-poms that I helped hang from the ceiling 🙂

The banners:
My niece Sawyer did some damage to her cake:
Isn’t she precious? Her mom made her outfit and headband too!
Boo had a blast at the party with all the activities: pinata, coloring station, cookie decorating and playing with her cousin Jordan. Don’t they look like they are up to something here?
I had TWO nieces turn one over the weekend. A day apart! I made both these little outfit sets for their gifts:
I silk screened t-shirts using my contact paper method:
Paired with my new favorite cuffed leggings from Target:
Made a few matching knit hair poms (see pom tutorial here):
And wrapped them all together into a cute little matching package:
I taught myself to crochet last night from an online video (see video here) as I caught up on some reality TV. It wasn’t as hard as I thought! I had to rewind the video a few times and I kind of made it up as I went:
I made this little snow hat for Boo’s doll. Doesn’t it look great with the silver halter prom dress?
I’d love some recommendations for a few easy patterns. Boo’s larger dolls could use some little shoes and cardigans! I think I could turn the hat upside down and add a strap for some shoes if I thought through it enough. I think I’d need some major help for an item of clothing…..
It was 76 degrees here today….but there was snow! Boo’s school had snow made for snow day….it was the first time she’s actually ever seen snow.
So what do you make when crocheting? Do you use a pattern? I’d love to know!
Updated: Thank you all so much for the amazing links! I already bought a new pattern yesterday and started making Boo’s doll some shoes (pattern from Turtlekeeper)! Next up maybe a doll dress or cardigan?
