Tulle Tutu

I wanted a tulle tutu for Avery's first birthday with a matching onesie or shirt. But everyone was charging $50 or more. So after doing a little pricing. I decided to make my own. I found several tutorials online and I picked one and went with it. I also found a cute iron on that was the same colors as the decor and theme. Here is the almost finished project. I haven't hung up the tutu after I trimmed the tulle off the bottom. but I'll post a picture of Avery wearing it. Enjoy!

 I did a dark blue tulle, light blue tulle, lavender, lime green, sea green and pink. then the pink on top was a satin type fabric. It's pink with small silver specks on it that looked like bubbles. :) (under the sea theme)

She didn't really like the feel of the tulle. So she kept her arms up. :) But she looks so cute in it. I wanted to do a headband, but she doesn't keep things on her head or in her hair.

Fathers Day Candy Cake

Well with a husband who wont tell you what he wants and very little money to spend. Sometimes you have to get creative with gifts. I saw a candy cake  idea on pinterest and went with it. So here is James' fathers day candy cake... and $5 bin movie. :p

It was easy and fun to make and James really liked it. You cant really tell by this picture. So you're just going to have to trust me. ;)

Ballerina Bow Holder

My Mom had a lot of tulle that she wasn't using. She gave it to me and I was excited to make some flowers. But then I thought there is no way I should or want to make little flowers out of 10 yards (or more) of tulle. So I started to play with some ideas and this is what I came up with.

I know that bow holders are really hot items right now and everywhere. But I thought I would try my hand at making one and trying a new approach I haven't seen before. So I did this Green and Yellow Ballerina Bow holder. Don't you just love the tulle tutu. :)

Chick Cupcakes

I forgot to post these. I made these at Easter time. I know what I did wrong and I am excited to try again. But here is my first attempt.

Everythings Ducky Boutique

I just wanted to share some of the headbands I have been making these days. I know I dont post on here a whole lot. But it's because I have been focusing so much of my time and attention on these headbands and bows that I havent done any other crafts. If you would like to see more, please go to my Everythings Ducky Boutique.

My sister taught me about cake decorating when I lived with her in Washington. Yup I fell in love. I love looking at cake an trying new things. I dont decorate or make cakes as much as I would like to. but when I do I have a lot of fun with it. Here are some of the cakes, cupcakes, etc. that I have made in the past. :) I know I have a lot to work on. But I have fun. :)
