Baby Hair Flower/Bows
I've been DYING to make some crafts for my lil baby girl who currently still resides in my womb. So I went on a hair bow making craze ...
*A few you can find from my tie headband tutorial.
*A few are taken from the concept I used in making the ribbon earrings.
*The pink gerber daisy also has a tutorial.
* I also have a lil tute on making singed flowers.
And this is how I made the red felt flower.
1. Cut out five one inch circles from a piece of felt.
2. Pinch one side together and sew through about a 1/4" into the pedal. You will just keep attaching each pedal by pinching and sewing them together.
3. Pull tight and add an embellishment in the middle if you wish. It actually looks cute without one too.
4. Put a circle piece of felt with a hairclip sewn to it, hotglued to the back of the flower to stick in your hair. Read more

Freezer Paper Stencils: Onesies
I'm sure you've seen these before but I am still so in love with making them that I thought I'd do a quick little tutorial! My neighbor just had a baby and I thought this would make a nice little gift!
1. First, wash your onesie (or other peice of clothing) and be sure to steer clear of the fabric softener.
2. Cut out your stencil from freezer paper. I used my Silhouette machine (use the blue cutting tip and put the freezer paper shiny side up so as to keep it from tearing).
3. Put a peice of freezer paper or cardboard inside of the onesie so paint doesn't leak through the fabric to the back side.
4. Iron on the stencil in the position that you would like it with the shiny side facing the fabric.
5. Using fabric paint, brush paint on the area inside of your stencil. Wait at least one hour before removing the stencil from the fabric.
*Be sure to wait 48 hours before washing the item of clothing and turn it inside out during the washing process. Read more
