Couple's Subway Signs

Miss Tavia (friend of Miss Ashley) and her hubby,
asked me to make a few signs for a large wall in their house

 They wanted them to be all about the places they have special feelings about:
Fredricksburg, San Marcos, and Austin

 The signs are 5'x2' and made from MDF

The middle one is actually a metallic gold, and maroon

 Fredricksburg: where they got married

 San Marcos: They meet while attending SWT

Austin: They live in ATX now

Aira's Wooden Letter Name

I had a really weird thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago

I was listening to the radio, 

and the DJs were discussing the most popular names of 2012 or 2011

and they were discussing the how the name Aira was on the list.

Apparently, its the name of a character in a popular show I don't watch,

but I thought the name was interesting,

Later that day, 

I had an email question wanting to know if I would make a wooden name for her expected daughter, 

and the name..... AIRA

Coincidence? I think NOT

 The mother wanted something simple, 

with flowers pasted on the letters

 I love how they came out!

And I especially love the ribbon

it was a real find, being all the colors I used on the letters

Birth Announcement Painting

This cute little canvas is a birth announcement to hang in a little one's room

I made a goof up on it,

 can you find it?

(I'm taking this with me this weekend to the Georgetown Poppy Festival)

I don't know any Addisons, 

I just made this announcement up

Subway Art For Sale

Here are my mock up Subway art paintings that I'm taking with me this weekend

I'm going to put them up for sale on Sunday, 

but Saturday they are to inspire people to buy a custom one from me

 This one has everything to do with Austin

 This is one having everything to do with Texas A&M, 

I made sure that every word on there is not word mark trademarked,

cuz I want to sell it

And this one, 

I can't sell, but it is to inspire a gift for maybe a newly married couple

(Glen and I didn't have a fabulous wedding at the beach in Cozumel, but I just tried to imagine what my wedding would have been if I would have been blessed enough to have one.)

Birth Announcement Pillows

Taking this with me this weekend as mock ups

They are Birth Announcement Pillows

 They are just supposed to be decorative, 

maybe something to place on a shelve, 

or in a rocking chair

The kids love them,

 and can't wait till after show, 

to place them in their rooms 

(like they need anything else in those stuffed rooms!)

A Boy's Boy order

This is another order for Miss Ashley.

She told me that the father is the ultimate hunter.

And with a name like Colt, 

I can tell he is going to follow in his dad's footsteps

 I loved this ribbon, form a previous order,

and appliqued the onesie

"This Runt Was Born To Hunt"

Knowing absolutely nothing about hunting,

 except that I see this symbol on the back of hunter's vehicles,

I attached the dear

I think its pretty cute

Dirty Dancing Onesie

So, I love this onesie!

Who doesn't love Dirty Dancing?!

 I goofed up on the last E, but I'll fix that today

Hoping to sell it at show this weekend

if not, I have an In-Law who has called dibbs

Felt Hand Mazes

These were a bit of an experiment

I mean for these to be for toddlers, 

or small kiddos

They are Mazes, 

there is a small bead inside, 

and you are supposed to push the bead around with your fingers

 I made a heart, and a fish

They have a little thing to attach to a key chain, 

or ... IDK!

I just thought the idea was cute, 

and was hoping to sell a few at the show this weekend

Ballerina Girl Shirt

Josie has her first birthday party just for her this morning!

It's for a cute little girl from her dance class

So in keeping with my new obsession,

I appliqued a cute little ballerina onto a shirt for Sophia

 I bought a cute little tutu skirt to match the theme,

 but now I think I should have bought the hot pink one

Oh well, it came out cute enough!

Princess Onesies

This week I tried something new,

Appliques with multiple fabrics,

(I've always shied away from these because I thought they looked like a lot of work, 

but in reality they are quite fun)

And like any new thing that I like to do,

I become obsessed with it!

 I bought these princess designs about a month ago, 

and I'm glad I've finally used them!

 Belle: Tale As Old As Time

 Ariel: Go on and Kiss the Girl

 Cinderella: A dream is a wish your heart makes

 Snow White: Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall

 Rupunzel: Rupunzel, Rupunzel, let down your hair

 And Finally, Aurora: I walked with you once upon a dream

I'm taking them with me to show next weekend,

The Georgetown Poppy Festival

Hopefully I will sell all of them!

Ashley and I are pairing them with some cute tutu bags made to match

Texas A&M Subway Signs

Texas A&M Subway Signs

Rodeo Time!

We recently had the opportunity to go to the Austin Rodeo.  

My first time even though I've lived in Austin practically all my life.  

Glen's boss was so nice to give us his tickets for the evening

 Kids loved the rides!

(though they cost an arm and a leg)

 I couldn't do this one!

I can't do circles! 

It would not be fun for me afterward, so Glen was a good sport!

 Ike loved all the events, 

though I think he liked the bull riding the most

After the rodeo, we watched Gavin Degraw

it was fun to take the kiddos to their first concert!

Faux Ruffled Chest Onesie With Headband

So, I've decided that these shirts look like a chest of bird...

See it?

Anyways,

these were for the same set of twins from the previous post

I made the headbands,

 cuz I felt like they were a little plain without them

ADORABLE! if I don't say so myself

Spring Onesie Appliqued Onesie and Burper Set

These were made for a set of twins

Notice how I'm easing myself into multiple fabric appliques!

I'm quite proud!

Wondering if I should put these on ETSY

DJ Baby onesie

I totally dropped the ball this last month, and forgot a order Ashely made for a coworker,
  I felt soooo bad,
but here is the result!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monogrammed onesie and burper
 (love the ribbon!)

And because daddy DJs,

 a onesie with a baby rocking the house!

Baseball personalized pillow

 This is Jeremy's Birthday Present:

Jeremy is the son of one of my fellow Housewives of Hutto

 He is WAY into Baseball, as you can tell

The entire pillow is HAND STITCHED

and made from felt

Faux Ruffled Onesie

 So I'm really unsure what to call this design,

it kinda reminds me of fish scales?, 

but that doesn't really sound nice,

so we will call it a Faux Ruffle design

Doesn't it look cute?

It was made for Miss Kinley,

she turns 1 on Saturday
