Today's Lovelies

So you know, I'm really pro.  I have this awesome camera, but yet so things go faster sometimes when I feel like posting a quick picture, I take a horrible quality and bad lighting cell phone picture.  But hey, at least I'm posting, right?!  I need to try to get better about taking good pictures though.

Anyways, today I finished the fox and diaper pouches, and then made these zipper pouches.  Love those birdies!  I decided I need to get some more of the gray bird fabric . . . can't get enough of it!

Oh yeah, open the gray chevron pouch with the red bird and inside is some lovely birdy fabric.  Makes me smile when I open it!

And since I've been wanting another zipper pouch for myself, and I love these, I decided I'm keeping the birdy and blue polka-dot one for myself.

Well, hope you all had a lovely, creative day!

Graduation Party

 For my graduation party, I looked to Pinterest for lots of my inspiration.  I think it turned out fairly well, though definitely not perfect!

The tables outside.

A closer up of the decorations.

Inside the garage, I decorated slightly differently on the tables.  Kraft paper covered books and a pennant with the flowers.

Mom made this Congratulations banner - it turned out lovely:)

I wanted to do drinks in some galvanized tubs, and my grandpa happened to have these and let us use them!

My picture board.  I covered the cardboard display board with burlap and then put rows of twine on and clothes pinned my pictures on.

Both of us graduates with the cupcakes.  I made cupcakes and then put them on some foam board I had cut into 2014.  I saw this on Pinterest and knew I had to do it! :)

And people at the party!

Well, I hope you all have a wonderful day!  Thanks to everyone who blessed us by coming to the party (or tried coming!).  We appreciated it! 

Kulla Girls Mini "Album"

I had these pictures I had printed and decided it would be fun to do an album of them.  It went fairly quickly (we won't talk about staying up 'til early o'clock in the morning).  As usual, I love some pages and kinda hate some others, but it's all good:)

Hope you all enjoyed and have a wonderful day!

Christmas Paper Bag Book

I started this book a long time ago . . . a year or two ago.  One of the kids had ripped one of the pages I did apart so I was a bit discouraged and set it aside.  Last week I decided I should finish it, so I did:)

There was actually some tags in the pages . . . (those ribbons sticking out!) but I forgot to take pictures of them:)

I think it turned out pretty cute and I'm glad I finished it!

Have a wonderful day!

A Mini Album {Birthday Gift}

 This is a mini album I made for my cousin & best friend, Pamela, for her birthday.  It was a last minute thing - I saw my inspiration for it Friday, made it Saturday, and gave it to her Sunday, her birthday.

Wheww . . it was a relief when I finally got it done Saturday evening!

On the front I did a little pocket thing where I put some quotes I really liked in it.  All the pictures I just printed off at home, so they weren't very high quality, but they worked out okay:)

Hope you enjoyed:)

Burlap & Lace ~ School Bag

 

I'd been planning on making a new bag this style for school this year for quite a while . . . and I finally got around to making it a couple days before school started!  I'm glad I finally had gotten it finished!  I really like how it turned out and I'm enjoying using it.

(And, yeah, I'm finally getting around to blogging about it!!!)

Hope everyone has had a wonderful day!

Burlap 'n' Lace Planner Cover

So this is a planner cover that I made for myself.

The inside:

 

And I'm wondering - Do you guys use planners?

Would you like to see these planner covers for sale?  (Of course they'd all be unique, but they'd all be this type of style, with the natural lace and burlap kind of look.)

Details:

The other thing is, this could also be used as a checkbook cover.  Just sayin' :)

So what do you guys think?  Do you like it and would you use one?
