New Summer Tote Bag!

It feels like Summer is already here in Texas.   We've had some days in the 90s, thank goodness there has been a breeze on the days we've had to be outdoors.  I probably would have melted, lol!  One of those breezy days was on Saturday.  It was for my niece's daughters 1st birthday.....so I guess that would make her my great niece....wow that made me feel old.   I can't be a great anything at 32..... (*_*).

I love making things for people....especially my family and especially for sweet baby girls that turn one!!  Once they're one I feel like they need a new bag instead of a big ole bulky diaper bag.  Plus this bag is big and deep enough to carry diapers and wipes and whatever mom needs to carry.

This bag was one of my favorites to make.  I love the green and pink colors.  


I'm not going into too much detail about how it was made.....check out my tote bag tutorial if you'd like.


Pockets sewn on, straps ready to be put on.


I always add a extra little some to the bag.  So I made this cute little stuffed "K" for her name.


See...cute huh!


Love, Love, Love it!!  


Here's the inside!


Now, since it was for her birthday the gift of the tote bag doubled as a gift bag.....everyone loved it!  Here it is filled with her gifts - clothes, a stuffed animal and a lady bug.   Ladybug is her nickname and that was the theme of the party.  I am a rebel when it comes to themes or registries....I hate them and I will give what I want.  So if they don't like it...oh well take it back...that's just me! (",)  But since I was in a good mood, I added the little lady bug, plus it was cute.


Here it is ready to be given away to the birthday girl!


Thanks for stopping by and checking out my weekly project!

Have a great week everyone.

Just call me Ms. FancyPants!

Look who got all festive and fancy Sunday afternoon!!!

Okay, this is not me - obviously.  But, I could have totally rocked this big flower on my head .....face paint - not so much!



This is me in my Sunday's finest!

feathers+flowers+pearls+hotglue = cuteness!!

 Okay, Okay....not really.  This is me in my fancy Fascinator that I made!  I was invited to a birthday Tea Party for my aunt.   The invite said wear Big hats, Lovely pearls and cute heels!!  I didn't want to wear a hat so I made this!  2 people won a gift for best dressed and "I" was one of the 2......YAY!!!

I think I want to make more to wear!! I love wearing   stuff on my head - hats, bow, flowers.....I like to dress up.  It was easy to make as well.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Birthday coming soon!!

Yay......(doing a happy dance!)  So my birthday is in 9 more days!!  I'm super excited about it too...not because I'm doing something grand or anything! I'm just happy because I have another year to be here!!  I know many people that hate their birthday's and they hate how old they're getting.  I say embrace it and live like there's no tomorrow! 

I love my life, I love that I can be me and I'm free to do the things that I can do! 

Last year my honey threw me a surprise birthday party, well he's always done a surprise birthday party or dinner for me. But last year's was the best....I didn't expect it at all!! I told him I didn't want a big to-do about it....but he doesn't listen (men) lol!!  I got to see all my friends and my family, and that was better than any gift!!

So, this year who know's what will happen!!  I'm spoiled what can I say!! 

Happy Early Birthday to my niece, she's turning 1!  And she stole my thunder, I used to be the only February baby in my family!!  Oh well, I still love her!  I call her butterball #2 and her dad, my brother calls her Miss.Piggy!!  lol
