Some things I've made and baby update

Baby will be here before we know it, and the kids start school in 13 days. And I'm not really ready for either.  But I have made a few fun things lately, not as many as I would like....but better than nothing at all. 



Whipped up this hat last night for our soon to be little pumpkin. Who btw still has no name! It's crochet and was super fast to make .. The pattern can be found on my pinterest board titled crochet. 

I am now selling these darling laser cut wooden necklaces and magnets in my shop!  


I whipped up this vintage sheet bunting a week ago.. Love how it looks in my shop window.   Thinking about making some for fall.   


The beginning stages of the nursery makeover.  It's still in progress.. Which is making me nervous with only 7 weeks until my due date. 

I will try to post more nursery photos as soon as we get it done.  


And here's a belly shot from a few weeks ago. 

I've been wanting to do a post for such a long long time. I finally just made my self do a quick one with whatever photos I have on my phone.

Vintage Grad Party




My friends daughter asked me to help with her graduation party because she liked Scarlette's Pink Party..We put it all together in one week.... it turned out really pretty and was a super fun party.





They rented tables and chairs and I used vintage sheets which I have a ton of :) for the table cloths. I brought over all my canning jars tied with vintage sheet scraps for the  drinking glasses. 

We used vintage sheets as back drops..

More vintage sheet table cloths, and bunting I had made for Scarlette's pink party... my big galvanized tub is a perfect drink bucket.

The streamers I had made for Scarlette's beach party last year.

They had a fire pit out and we roasted marshmallows and made smores after dark. We also had a henna station for doing henna tattoo's  

The food table.

Close up of the center pieces.. I brought all my vintage books and we stacked a few on each table and some  simple daisys in vases were the perfect touch.
Another table shot


We set up an outdoor photo booth, with lots of fun props and put my camera on a tripod and let everyone have fun.  Here are a few of the many photo booth shots.

There are a ton more pics here.

Thanks for letting me help make your party special Alicia!!!
