What is it??

Not a good video but was all we could get earlier. Will try again tomorrow. I think it's funny that all you see is the white one! :o)

Charlie's Awesome Wheelie

Another Purse

This time it's a very tiny one!

It took me about an hour start to finish. You can't see very well, but it's a pastel stripe fabric with white straps. No pockets on this one, it's too tiny, but it does have a liner or the same stripey fabric.

Andrew's paper mache project he did at school!

A falcon, I think.

He did a great job on it!

Sarah's Baby Sweater

I crochet this with a pattern from a library book. I did it all myself ....no help from mom :-) 

Do you guys like it? I am going to give it to my best friends mom who is going to have a baby girl soon.

It was pretty easy and took about 6 hours.

New Purse!

I made a brand new purse today with a pattern from a library book. Here's how it turned out!

This is how my room looked at the very beginning when I started.












A shot of me cutting the outside fabric!











The lining of the purse laid out on the grid after cutting.









All the pieces of the purse laid out before sewing. A liner, a liner pocket, an outside pocket, strap, and the actual bag itself!









The purse open and all sewed together, after multiple frustrating stitch rip-outs and issues! But maybe the next time I'll be better. It still looks good in the end!










Here's a picture of the inside. On the left, back section of the purse there is a small pocket. No other pockets on the inside here!









A picture of the front pocket on the purse.









And the last picture of me modeling it so you can all see how it looks!

How do you guys think I did?

Does Your Room Need Cleaning???

Take the ROOM CLEANING challenge!

Show us your room BEFORE clean-up...... then show us your room AFTER clean-up!

Here's some tips to help you get your room in tip-top shape!!



Set a positive attitude! Focus on the benefits:

• Just think, it would be so much easier to choose clothes from your dresser rather than sift through piles of clothes that are on the floor.
• It will even be easier to get out of bed in the morning to start the day. Your day will be organized from the very beginning.
• The room will be more inviting. You can have friends over without being embarrassed.
• Your parents will be happy!
• A clean room equals a clean mind. If you keep your room tidy it won't be bugging you all the time. You will be able to focus on the more important things.
• If you clean your room often, clutter will disappear. You will not tire from cleaning.

And now you're ready to start the challenge!
