Starting off the newest dollhouse remodel-is the upper level of the house! the two "kids rooms" as we like to call them. They were a girls room, and a nursery before, but now that we have Jack in the family, I redid the nursery as a little boy's room! and went all out with a Star Wars theme! (because why not?) I had actually decorated it … [Read more...]
BLUSH kitty Nessie top
April 17, 2018 By 6 Comments
Finally finished up this Nessie top for Charlotte-but it ended up fitting Ava much better. How are my kids getting so big? Not allowed. The Art Gallery knit fabric is of course, gorgeous and lovely to sew with as always! It always washes really well too. I sewed up a size 6 and it fit Ava well with some room to grow into-just how I like my … [Read more...]
DIY DOLLHOUSE PLANTS
March 16, 2018 By 10 Comments
If you follow me on Instagram, you know I've been redecorating the dollhouse! An refresh has been needed for awhile, the girls have been really good with it in general but have broken or lost some things, and it just needed an update. I knew I'd want to update it every so often because I love making miniatures so much, so I decided it was time! … [Read more...]
updated craft room
March 2, 2018 By 2 Comments
It's been about 2 years since I moved from the largest bedroom in our house, to the second smallest. Quite the downgrade, but honestly I like it better. It's been a great reason to downsize my stash and only keep the things I really use! aaand then I kinda threw everything in here and called it a day for the last two years. I finally got the … [Read more...]

I had this loosely knit french terry fabric burning a whole in my pocket-er...stash shelf...and I knew I wanted to make a Harrison Hoodie before too long-THUS this adorable little sweater was born! I made a size 12-18 months, which fit very well! It was such a quick make-It felt like even including piecing the pattern and cutting, it was about an … [Read more...]
updated girls room
February 23, 2018 By 8 Comments
I thought I'd do a little update post on the girls room since we've had to make some changes since we redid it about 2 years ago. The biggest change is the bed! Ava has always been our fastest growing girl, so we knew her toddler sized bed wouldn't last much longer. We don't have space in the room for an extra twin size bed plus the low loft bunk … [Read more...]
olive flashback skinny tee

I know probably, that some people don't care to see every t shirt I make this year. But to be accurate, and because Jack is a cutie pie (even with his weird I'm-eating-swedish-fish-faces), I am going to blog everything I make him, even if it ends up being a flop or a gift (because I got so caught up in boy making I made a few things for my friend … [Read more...]
YOTB Upcycled bookworm shirt
February 15, 2018 By 8 Comments
I knew when I started Year of the Boy I was going to be making button down shirts. They're a little boy STAPLE. and oh so adorable! At least from far away, there are a few mess ups that occurred on this shirt, but luckily the fabric and distance hide them! I couldn't find any fabric I liked locally or the right weight online, so I actually went … [Read more...]

I honestly had SO much fun planning this party for Ava. She had this theme picked out ever since the live action Beauty and the Beast was released, and was thinking up ideas with me and planning the goodies since then! Let's start with the invitation! (also, some affiliate links in this post-as per usual with my party posts! Thanks!) I threw … [Read more...]
YOTB boxwood joggers
February 6, 2018 By 4 Comments
I'm loving these sweet little joggers on my Jack! I also made some jeans for him this week, which was a THING, so these were a nice quick project to whip up! I sewed up my friend Melissa's pattern, the boxwood joggers, in a size 12-18 months. I just LOVE the cute triangle pocket detail. I think in my next pair I want to try some color blocking … [Read more...]
