Rapunzel Rapunzel ..let down your hair

I think this was one of the best costumes yet.. Rapunzel was all the rave this year and I got a sweet long hair extension braid from a friend that was the exact color of my girls hair..perfect. Anyways, this is a close replica of Rapunzels dress that I could come up with :)

Christmas decor

This is what I did for my mantle this year.. I usually do a pine garland, but I got these gold leaves and added red berries and white magnolias instead.. I like it much better

simple. Joy is made from vinyl so you'll need someone who has a vinyl cutter..otherwise, just got an old frame and spray painted it gold and put wrapping paper for the backing and there you have it!

Toddler Backpacks

These toddler backpacks are the perfect carrier for Toddlers things!
some extra clothes, snack, sippy cup for playdates or staying the night at grandmas :)
perfect toddler size..each girl got one for their birthday

Halloween blocks

These 3" blocks are modge podged with fabric
the letters are painted white from chipboard
sand all the edges for that antiqued look

Mom & Me

So.. as of lately I have decided that I am not going to keep up with the Mom & Me website and I will just post the things that I make on Crafty Shak.. I have made stuff for people through custom order and that is what I will continue to do.. but I have mainly done word of mouth type stuff..not big on advertising.

I really enjoy making stuff for other people! So if there is something you want.. I will make it!

some shopping cart covers and matching travel blankeys :)

Black and White Collection: bib, blankey, wipey case, burp cloth, nursing cover, binky clip, diaper bag, & changing pad

Brown and Blue Collection:

Pink & Brown Collection:

These are just examples of the baby items that I have made for people.. although I will no longer be making the diaper bags.

Nursing Cover

I made this nursing cover for a friend and I like the fabric.

I had some leftover nylon chiffon and made a flower..along with 2 different black and white fabrics.

Baby Boy!

As you may notice, I am having a boy..soon. Therefore, I bought 4 fabric patterns from Heather Bailey and went to work! of course in the meantime of all these projects, my machine went caput and had to borrow a friends (thank you Julia!!).

These projects are feasible, just a little time consuming..on some (like the bumper)

Baby blue, lime green, and yellow are the colors I chose, since the walls in the room were already yellow..so the fabrics are mostly blue and green, with some yellow in 2 of them.

I bought 2 yards of 2 of the fabrics, and 1 yard of the other 2 and was able to make all this! I also used 2 sets of white sheets :) The minky fabric I bought about 1 yard and have some left over.. I even have some left over of the Heather Bailey fabric!

If you want instructions on any of these.. email me and I will be glad to help you out on your project!
