Dino's for Girls?

Yes!  Girls can play with and love dinosaurs too.  

Have you noticed though that if you would like a girly dinosaur shirt, you may have a hard time finding one?

My middle daughter was invited to her friend's birthday party.  We didn't know what the birthday girl wanted  so I asked her Mom.  The Mom mentioned that her little girl loved dinosaurs and wanted a shirt with a dinosaur.  

So, my middle daughter picked out the colors and the dinosaur outline and I went to work.   I even made a matching hair bow.   

  

To make this shirt, I printed a dinosaur pic to use for a pattern.  After I cut the dinosaur out of fabric, I zigzagged it to the shirt.  Simple.  You could even hand sew this if one doesn't have a sewing machine.  

Fabric Flowers

So I found these fabric flowers over at Make It and Love It. I made one of these and just loved it! The first one I made I put it it in my 4yr old's hair and took her to PreK. Wouldn't you know it, she lost it. So I made some more. I gave one of these cute little flowers as a birthday gift to my friend's daughter (my little model). My sister in law asked me to make her one...hmm, perhaps a Colt's blue one? Maybe I should start selling these?

Hair Stuff Board

Which clip should I wear?

I needed something where I could keep all the hair clips I have made for my daughters. I thought about doing the braided ribbons, but then I saw what I wanted to make. Well, sort of. What I found was glass that was covered in the ribbon. Um, glass? Hello! I have young children who like to throw things. PASS! No, WAIT! I decided I could not make the same thing using cardboard. Empty diaper box her I come! I also wanted to be able to hang this on the wall. I used my hot glue to stick a pop can tab on the back. This was an easy NO sew project.

(I actually used a side from the DVD box)

Next project...easy to store headband ribbon
