I've Got My Eye on You!!

I found another great project off of Pinterest!
This was such a great and easy project to put together and the kids were able to help!

I got my tool, ribbon and wreath from Hobby Lobby and the bouncy ball eyeballs from Target.
I spent under $15 for this whole project! YEAH!

I would like to add more eyeballs to it and thankfully it is super easy to add them!
Just need to add a stick pin to the eye and stick it on!
My kids are super excited and already hung it up on the front door!

New Granny Square Project

I love Pinterest!  It has become the latest obsession for many of my friends, including myself! 
One thing I really like about it is being able to pin all my inspirations into different categories.  I created a blanket board of the different blankets I've seen and would like to make in the future.  I noticed I was pinning a lot of granny squared blankets that used bright colors.  So my newest Granny Square Project is going to be a bright and happy blanket!
Here are the squares I've made so far.




I'm using yarn from my stash and hoping to not have to buy too much extra!  I love how the squares look different based on the colors used!
When completed I'll be adding this lovely blanket to my shop!  
I'm estimating now that it will be about 48-52 inches wide and 42-48 inches long.  
I will keep posting updates of the progress!

What have you been pinning on pinterest? You should try it out if you haven't already!

My Craft Swap Prize

Today I got my package from my swap partner!
It's a crocheted crochet hook holder!!! I absolutely LOVE it!!!
My swap partner said she got the idea after snooping through my pins on pinterst (great idea!) I though it was funny that on my board her inspiration and my inspiration were side by side!!
Thanks again Sophie!!!!!

Christmas Craftiness

I love Pinterest for all of their inspiration! I saw this picture and knew I had to make this wreath!!

And thank you Target for inexpensive and cute plastic ornaments to make this project happen!!

Here is the blog post that I used for some assistance.  It has other blogs linked to it as well for more help! I didn't take any pictures of the process because my daughter and I were just having too much fun! We used hot glue to make sure those sneaky tops didn't detach from the plastic balls.  Also my wire hanger had a plastic coating on it and I had to strip some of it off for to allow the balls to slip on easier.

And here is our finished product
I just need to get some ribbon to hide the hanger and it will be finished!
