Snow already?!

No....no snow yet! But I am getting ideas for some fun, inexpensive gifts. This idea came from here! She used toilet paper or paper towels for these snowmen. Clever woman!

Dots & Doodles

I saw these cute, cute towel samples here! What a fun gift idea.

Towels as Treats!

These ideas were too cute to pass up. What a fun thing to make for different occasions.....for guests, girls camp, showers, b-day gift..... This gal has tutorials on how to make these cute concoctions!

Machine Emboidered Towels

I did it....I broke down and bought a used embroidery machine. I got a really good deal. Saw this post and I would like to do some towels and this was a great tip for me.

A pretty little bag

I saw these little bags here and thought they were just too cute. She had found them here with a tutorial.

Baby burp and bibs

Moda Bake Shop has cooked up these cute burp and bibs. What I especially like about these bibs is that you can change the neck straps and use on any of the other cute bibs. These is very easy to make and oh so cute! Tutorials are included also which is a major plus!

Little Girl Bracelet

I saw this very cute little 'bracelet'. This clever gal includes a tutorial to make it.

Finished bags

Here are the finished bags from the fabric I showed you yesterday. I think they are just too cute....but that is my own humble opinion ;o) I will put a box of crayons in the front pouch and other assorted goodies that will help keep a toddler occupied! There are pockets on the inside also.

Kids dressed for winter!

I had a muff as a child and I have thought what a cute idea for grand daughters, but have forgotten the idea until I saw this! I can see it made in either minkie or fleece. Here is a pattern for the muff and a cute beret.

I HEART This!

My family loves krispy treats....they are so quick and easy too. These little gems are a great idea. Why is it that something always looks better when someone else does it?? It always tastes better too for some reason. She gives great directions and pictures :o)

I had to edit this post with some more of her fabulous ideas!

How fortunate for us that some people are soooo clever!

I lOVE cinnamon bears. Someone told me I had to try chocolate covered cinnamon bears and I thought they were crazy! But oh my!.....I was the crazy one....they are THE best!
So here is a hot little valentine for you!

Necktie Valentine

I have a bunch of old ties from my sons and husband. I will be making a quilt from them, but I saw this little project. So I may have to make a couple of these too!
She gives very nice instructions.

Definition of a Mother

Elle Design Cottage has this very nice tile about mothers.

Coloring Books & Crayons Tote

I have made bags for kids before that hold books and crayons, but this is a very cute bag. I love the ruffle. This site also has patterns for ALL kinds of things!I will have to remember this for little granddaughters!

Birdie Sling Bag

I have seen other patterns by Amy Butler, but this one caught my eye. I have seen a couple women make them and found a rating about it here. This gal made them for gifts (lucky friends!).

Melly & Me

This gal made these as Christmas gifts and I thought they were so cute. So I found the website of Melly & Me and found some other cute patterns they produce.
There is a link on their site where their patterns can be purchased. I just didn't want to loose this idea!

Sock Kitties

I don't really care for the sock monkeys, but these little kitty socks are cute.

Sketchy MacLaptop

I LOVE this laptop cover. It is just too clever. She gives some instructions also.

If I'd known you were coming I would have stitched a cake!

Felt Food! I've been interested in Felt lately for some odd reason and this one caught my eye. I never would have thought of felt food for kids and this is definitely food for thought (pun intended!). With 5 grand-daughters so far, this might come in handy! Way cute!

Eazy Fizzy Bath Bombs

Now this is the BOMB! (Bad I know!) But really, this looks like fun and it does look like a quick and easy gift. Plus did I say that I know I will feel like a real Chemist doing this??

I want to be her neighbor!
