Lets Make a Mess
Since I LOVE owls, I wanted to make an owl wall hanging to put in Lyla’s nursery. I decided to use felt. First I sketched out a picture of generally what I wanted the owl to look like. Then cut I it out, traced it onto a piece of felt (purple) and cut it out. Then I cut out pieces for the belly, beak, feet, feathers, and eyes. I considered
I just started my first crafty link party. Please stop by and link up up to 3 projects, crafts, recipes, activities, or anything DIY. The Cure for the Common Monday In the meantime I have been working on redesigning my blog a little bit. Bear with me as I make these changes. I would also love feedback. Later I will share about the different things I am doing with some

I made these paintings for my brother a few years ago. You could get a large canvas and put a quote or part of a song on it, but I liked to split them up into three different canvases. Since we both LOVE the Beatles, I chose a lyric from the song “Let It Be”. I bought ABC stencils from Michael’s for most of the letters. In order to make
I had so much fun making Play-doh photograph art with the xylophone, I thought it would be fun to make some with a piano as well. Of course you have to be extra careful not to damage the piano or get any play-doh in between the keys.
