{ decore, gifts and more.... }

I'm way behind on posting my latest projects, so I figured I'd start with the most recent.... St. Patty's Day decorations. I had so much fun making lots of shamrock garlands, in fact I made so many that I gave them to a few of my friends, which is also what I did for Valentine's day too! Anyway.... as always I hope you enjoy!

 St. Patty's Day gift bags sent to my brother Brad, Krystal and Lauren, filled with lots of green goodies!

I made hair clips to match the girl's Valentine outfits my Mom made and then made a napkin ring to go along with a cute place setting idea for the quilt shop my Mom works at.




 Fun photo for Valentine's day, Lauren was nice enough to enhance it for me! :)
Laying out squares for Angie's quilt. My mother-in-law is helping me get it put together. I can't wait to have this finished and on Angie's bed instead of the ugly black blanket she has on there now! Then her whole room will FINALLY coordinate! YAY! :)
