CREATE52 - #4 Valentine's Garland


I didn't have any Valentine's decorations- so I decided to make this garland. I just cut a bunch of hearts out of felt and sewed them together. Also, I cut out LOVE to make it a little cuter. Then I sewed a long line through it all to attach it to a piece of ribbon- to make it stronger and easier to hang.

CREATE52 - #3 Little Bags

I made these all from a pattern. Pete and I both needed bags for the shower- at the gym. So I used a lightweight and water-resistant fabric that would dry easily. The middle bag was just for fun. It's hard to tell, but I hand-embroidered it and it has a zipper.

CREATE52 - #2 Infinity Scarf


I've always thought buying scarves was such a rip off... It's just a piece of fabric! So I found some cheap, versatile fabric at Joann's and finally just made one for myself. It's a very quick project-- Cut the length and width you want and finish the edges. (For the infinity scarf, you sew the ends together into a circle.) Voila!

CREATE52 - #1 Dream Mobile

I couldn't part with this cool stick I found outside. So I painted it up with some fun colors, and strung up some beads (I had laying around) with duck feathers (that Pete got for me from hunting) on fishing string-- To make this dream-catcher-inspired decoration.
