cork board makeover.


{click link for tutorial and her CUTE boards.}

I found this on the website, How Does She.
I fell in love. I had this old cork board in sophias room
that I have always hated. I painted it yellow and added those 
twisted roses to it, but it looked terrible. I found the tutorial above and 
was sooo happy. I added the little pleat things on the side to hold her clips..
since we aren't into headbands much anymore. {rips them right out}
 I am re-doing my daughters room, same colors and everything
but making it more 'big' kid like. {5 more months until my baby turns 2!!!}
This was the perfect start to her baby, turned big girl room, makeover. 

{ps. don't you love that her bows are stained with mac n' cheese?! ooh the life 
of a 1 year old..not even CLOSE to clean.}

fabric flowers



My super awesome sister in law taught me to make these this weekend and i am ADDICTED! I cant wait to buy more fabric! They are super easy... ill try and explain...
1. Cut 6 flower shapes, or circles, either shape works. Just make sure they are about the same size.
2. Cut 4 wavy circles of netting slightly larger that the fabric circles. I just fold a piece of netting into 4ths and cut around a fabric flower. also, cut a small circle for the top of the flower.
3. Take 4 of your 6 fabric flowers and fold them in half.
4. layer your 4 half circles like you would the top of a cardboard box.
5. Layer and hot glue your fabric and netting in this order....
Top going to bottom. 4 layered fabric flowers. 1 piece of netting. fabric flower. 1 piece of netting. 1 fabric flower. 2 pieces of netting.
6. On the back, attach some sort of clip, or pin, or whatever you want to use.
7. On the top of the 4 layered fabric flowers, glue the small circle of netting you cut out, and some sort of button, or bead for the center :)
I hope this all made sense!!
