Fun New Project


My neighbor is pregnant and I guess I got pretty excited and I am throwing her a baby shower. I made a template for these diaper invites and I think they turned out very cute.

I also made nylon headbands and I posted a picture of the clips/bows that I made to fit onto the headbands. I am giving her one black headband and one white headband and then she can choose which bow she wants. I found the cute frame idea from Martha Stewart's website and Nate made the frame for me. I am really excited. I don't know if anyone would buy these, but I think I might post my bows on Craigslist. Well, except the top right one, I think one side is lopsided. That was the first bow I made.

Those are really cute! I love how the bows are displayed...that's something you should consider making & selling too!! Have you ever heard of Etsy? A few of my friends make things and sell them on there...I think there are a ton of people who make bows and such, but you should still look at it!
Did you have fun on your trip?

nice job! Im impressed. You'd be surprised how many people might be interested. I'd definitely try and see what happens. I can hardly type because Kate is begging me to scroll down and show her the funny faces on the buses...

Anne I LOVE these! I love the idea of interchangeable headbands/bows! I hope no one stumbles on this site and makes your things and sells them first....


Also, I love your "frame bow display thing", I need that. I will be checking that site out and see if I can rig one up. It is way neater than the lame idea I had bouncing around in my head!

Oh, and sell the top right, it looks great to me and, really, what kid sits all straight and never lopsided?

Hey, How is it that you've all the sudden become so artsy and full of new creative fun ideas!? It makes me want to live by you so I can help you throw baby showers and talk about baby stuff. (Not that your having a baby.. but it still would be fun). I'm glad that your having so much fun with this stuff. The invitations are awesome! I am really impressed with you new talent/hobby. Miss you girl.
