Easy Zipper Bag with Personalized Embroidery Teacher Gift Idea

This zipper bag is the perfect beginner sewing project. Add a teachers name written by your child using embroidery for a personalized teacher gift. 

I love giving homemade gifts when I have time to make them. Something about homemade that is so wonderful. Zipper bags are my favorite to make because you can use any fabric and they are such a quick sew.

It wouldn't be right to head into springtime without a pineapple project :). I've been wanting to try stretch htv (heat transfer vinyl) for a long time and  knee patches on little girl leggings seemed like a fabulous opportunity!

Small Laundry Room and Bathroom Makeover Week 1 || One Room Challenge

This is the week 1 of the One Room Challenge Spring 2018. We are participating by making over our laundry room AND our small bathroom right next to it. Follow us along the next 6 weeks. 

As we slowly been updating our house, one of rooms I've dying to fix was our laundry room. It was functional with wire shelves above the washer and dryer, but those shelves were wobbly and I could never keep them tidy. 

Mommy and Me Striped and Floral Shirts | January Sewing Challenge

Matching shirts are fun for mama and girl, but hard to find. So why not just make them! They can be easy and quick to make. 

 I really love sewing for my kiddos. There are so many fun and cute things to make for them. Like these dinosaur sweat shirts or these soft play cube toys or this Alphabet matching game, I could go on (see more HERE). But I decided I needed to do a little more sewing for myself, so I made a personal goal in January to sew something for me every month (you can see past things I've made for me HERE).

DIY Light Sconce Corbel Style IKEA Ranarp Light Hack

Edible Chocolate Play Dirt and Mini Plastic Trucks

For hours of fun, this edible dirt doesn't have any added sugar and is a great inside activity for cold winter day inside activities or really hot summer day indoor activities. 

I was going through old pictures and came across the kids playing with edible chocolate play dirt. They loved it so much and played with it and their mini plastic trucks for a long time. I even stored it in the fridge for them to play with during the month that I made it. 

The best part is that it's looks like dirt but all of the ingredients are edible and there is no sugar added. Honestly though, the kids didn't want to eat it, but just loved having a place for their mini plastic tractors and mini plastic dinosaurs.
