Halloween with my boys

Ok so for Halloween I decided we would do something easy so I bought the boys nice jackets that they can wear all winter long and went to our local craft store and bought sew on letters. I decided not to ruin the jackets and sew them on so I bought adhesive stick ons and placed the letters on that way. They were 50's Greasers... It was pretty cute and easy!

Baby Shower Candy Table

Here's a small example of what I did for my sister's baby shower. More pics to come soon. Basically I had many glass jars all filled with blue, white, and brown candies and matching ribbon around them for the guests to take and fill a bag full of candy as they were leaving for a favor. It was a hit! This picture only shows one of the many glass containers filled with goodies!

Shirts for my son and his friends

For Homecoming week at my son's school the kid's decided to ride in the parade on a float. So I decided to make them all shirts with their school colors to match the theme. They had a blast and looked good to!!
