For the birthday girl I made her some coasters, magnets and a little tin to hold the magnets. I was trying to give something practical that she would use. I was going to paint her some wine glasses... but she is pregnant too so I didn't want to tease her with those! :)
The flower on the case is a magnet too!
I also found a new craft! Crochet flowers... and let me tell you- I am obsessed!!! I ws trying to add them onto everything I could this weekend! LOL!
And for the baby shower... I just made a quick little "goody basket" to go along with the gift my mom and I gave her.
It had the keychain I made (shared the picture of that last week!)
A padded fabric covered wipe case (I LOVE this. I bought some fabric to make myself a super cute pink one!)
A washcloth lollipop- which is just that- A washcloth rolled to look like a lollipop! The stick is a baby spoon!
A onsie cupcake- this is a onsie and a washcloth rolled to look like a cupcake
The theme of the nursery is planes... so I took some wood planes, glued them onto safety plug covers.. and wa-la! Super cute plug covers!
I finished up the weekend of gifts with a couple newborn headbands. I have a friend who is a photographer and she wanted some headbands for a newborn she is going to be taking pictures of this weekend... so this is what I came up with. I am very excited to see how they look in pictures... especially because this same friend has already said she will come take pictures of Sadie when she gets here!! YAY for having awesome photographer friends!
And this is a little bonus I threw into the package Im sending her... I told you I was obsessed with these flowers! :)
All in all it was a busy weekend of making gifts for me. We had a good time though... too bad our TV broke last night! I guess without a TV I should have a lot more time to make things! :) (I'm trying to see the positive in the situation... because I am NOT happy our 3 year old flat screen took a dump!!!)
