Turkey Hand Tee

Here's a modern twist on the Thanksgiving hand turkey!
My daughter and I made this a few years ago and we had so much fun I had to share it again!

Look at that sweet little face! I can't believe how fast she's growing up!

Three years later & she had to squeeze into the shirt one last time for some silly photos!

We followed the tutorial from Treasures For Tots as our guide. Using fabric scraps, ribbons & buttons, we made the whole thing in less than one hour & the best part... No sewing involved (woot)!

Now go create some memories of their sweet little hands and make your little one a fun tee to rock this Thanksgiving!

Barbie Sock Dress Tutorial

In our house Barbie changes her wardrobe multiple times a day.
On. Off. On. Off.
My daughter has decided that
"Barbie is a fashionista & needs more clothes mommy!"
Good grief!

And since our dryer miraculously eat socks (yours too?) - Here's a fabulous idea to put those single socks to use!

Here's what you will need:
Clean child's sock
Scissors
Glue
Embellishments (ribbon, buttons, bows, etc)

Cut off the toe portion of the sock & give it a try on Barbie.

Remove the sock & fold to create a "hem". Glue down all the way around.

We added some embellishments as accent trim:
Some ribbon for the straps, bottom & empire waist.
A sweet bow adds the finishing touch!

That's it. Easy right?

Took less than 5 minutes and didn't cost a penny.
Snow White Barbie never looked so fabulous!

Toddler Tank Makeover

We recently had the opportunity to participate in an amazing photo shoot (I'll share the image soon!). The only criteria was that we had to wear white. Once I got my little gal dressed in her white tank, I realized it needed some pizazz.
Chiffon flowers to the rescue!

Blank tank = Boring right?

You'll just need a few supplies to pretty it up:
  • Chiffon fabric
  • Beads
  • Scissors
  • Lighter
  • Needle
  • Thread
Cut chiffon circles in various sizes and singe the edges with the lighter. It'll prevent fraying & curl the edges.

Next sew the chiffon circles & add the beads.

These cuties aren't just for tank tops. Add them to a hair clip or headband, glue them onto a plain pair of ballet shoes or attach one to a pin back and wear it on your favorite fall cardigan!

In less than 10 minutes, this is the transformed tank!


Now go try making some of the flowers. I promise it's so easy, you'll be hooked!

Thanks for stopping by!
