Calder's New Chair
A few weeks ago I found a cute little patio chair for Calder at the thrift store. Okay, it wasn't really that cute at the time. It has a little rust at the bottom and is a very ugly green color. But the chair was solid and the perfect size. So, I sanded the rust and then gave it a nice gray coat of paint.
Alphabet Tiles
This is my last set of tiles, I promise! This is a fun alphabet set. It is just 26 tiles with a picture that starts with that letter. I made these just like the stamped set I did for my son for Christmas. They have paper glued (with rubber cement) to the backs and the pictures glued to the front. I rounded the corners of the letter papers. It is so easy!
Stroller Sausage
It's cold here. I want to continue to go and do as much as possible and I was tired of stuffing a blanket into the stroller so I made a stroller sausage! I used thrifted orange wool for the exterior and thrifted white knit for the inside. It should be toasty warm and soft on the inside.
Todd & Veronica
My little boy has been really into imagination play lately. He has been pretending to be other people such as Santa Claus and people from his nursery class. I thought it would be fun for him to have a few little dolls to channel his imagination.
Match Game
This is another Christmas gift for my son. My friend Liz bought a bunch of 2inch square wooden tiles to make a match game for her son and invited a few friends to join her. I am so glad she did. I love the way they turned out and I can't wait to play it with my son.
Stroller Revamp
Calder's car stroller (as in, it stays in the trunk) was showing a little wear. It isn't bad but the cover was fading in just a few places. I bought the stroller on Craigslist and absolutely love it. It's small but still has the full reclining position. So, I decided to sew a new cover for it. I LOVE this fabric and was so excited to try it. It is fully removable and I didn't change the original, so I can revert back if needed.
