Perfect Projects for Spring!

It's official!! Spring. It's here. I have one crocus that's bloomed in our front yard, and our tulips, daffodils, mums, orchids and tiger lilies are sprouting. Even the rose bush has new growth. I can't wait for some less-crisp air, though Lillian and I have been spending our afternoons lately in the back yard where there's full sun for the better part of the day. Patiently waiting for those mid-50's!

With the arrival of spring, I've made a boatload of things...

Bubble Capri Tutorial

With spring just around the corner, I've been making a few things for my Etsy shop, and these Bubble Capri pants are one of them. I just love toddlers in capri pants, and the bubble hem is just an extra touch of cuteness. I've included a tutorial on how to start from scratch and make your own pattern, as well as how to assemble the pants. 

Bam! 

How stinking adorable, right?!

Ear Warmers & Layered Flower Tutorial

I've been drooling over this post at Prudent Baby, by Delia Creates for the whole entire month, and finally got it together this morning. I added a tutorial for my layered fabric flower toward the end too :) 

The tutorial Delia provided is ridiculously simple to follow, and results in seriously the cutest fall/winter accessory... an ear warmer. She used fleece, and says you can use a sweater or thermal too. I can't wait to raid Andrew's old clothes for shrunken sweaters and thermal tops. This is the story of how I made mine...
