some pics for the weekend

 I'm excited! i've finally done something with a pinterest idea!!

yes, and it's homemade laundry detergent. 

super easy.

you just add all these products together! 

(and grate the soap bars with a cheese grater...and you're done!)

smells amazing.

 one of my children hijacked my phone....as usual.

and took this gem.

had to post it! 

ha :)

 i love these goofy girls,

and their goofy faces.

ok! time for a FLASHBACK photo!

i've been in my mom's archives...

so much fun (and a little sad) to see all the pics from 2008....only 5 years ago???

crazy how time flies.

dreams

i've been hunting around on other people's blogs...

like for the past 6 months

and i've acquired some "dreams" per say...

here's some of them i'd like to accomplish if there was no limit on funds or time!

~make this amazing duvet cover

i totally love this wreath!!

would love to make this canopy for the girls!

~sorry no pic on here~

i'm surely dreaming when it comes to this next one....

i've never wanted to really make my own dress, but 

this would be it!!

fabric flowers

 here are some of the flowers i made!!!

i am quite pleased with them!! i sewed a bobby pin to the back of this white one.....should be cute in someone's hair!!

oh, and yesterday ivory and adia decided to have a hair cutting session in their bedroom......

yikes! i had an array of feelings...but we don't need to discuss them!

here's adia's hair now.....short on one side (reminds me of a mullet!) and normal on the other!

alas....it happens to everyone at least once! :)

make it monday!

hello friends!

i've been deeply inspired....seeing all these blogs and crafting pictures on pinterest...oh boy!

i want to create sooooooooo badly!

i have to make good use of the little time i have,
when not taking care of 5 young beauties!
 but today i've purposed to make "something".

so after looking at this:

and this:

from my favorite new website !

it is super inspiring!!

so, i've decided to make a fabric flower today, and maybe every day this week!

and i want to challenge all of you crafters out there to make one too!!

join me in making a fabric flower--!
 and add it to a headband, or shoes, or use it on a present!

options are endless! :)

happy flower making!!
