"I am a child of God" Sign

My daughters room is decorated in lavendar and white (with gray accents I have been adding as of late).

I saw this frame laying around my house, and had a vision of this for my daughter's room. 

Added some rosettes from scrapbook paper. 

Totally easy to make and basically impossible to screw up.

I did the text in Word, which was a pain in the rear by the way. I prob should something else :)

Felt Quiet Book

I decided to get a head start making a quiet book for my baby girl since she's already starting to get wiggly at church. This book is made all from felt, and the binding that I used makes it possible to add more pages simply by opening the book rings. I didn't feel like I went all out whatsoever as far as details go, and it still ended up taking about 20 hours. Phew. Glad to be done!

 

 Learning to count with beads and the corresponding number.

To learn to snap there is a coat that snaps shut.

To learn to button and match colors, there are matching flowers with buttons.

 Dress the doll with felt clothes. 

The baggie has a velcro and a zipper to keep it shut and to teach zipping.

 Match the shapes with the sewn on outline.

 Tie a shoe lace.

Barn with felt finger puppets.

Foam Board Bedroom Sign

I made this bedroom sign for my little girl totally on the cheap! I used some scrap paper, ribbon, and tulle I found lying around.

Materials:

-One Elmer's folding foam board.

-Scrapbook paper

-cutout of a letter

-ribbon

-tulle

-xacto knife and scissors

-hot glue and elmers glue

1. I glued the letter cut out to a peice of the foam board and then cut it out with the xacto knife.

2. I glued all the scrapbook paper on the sqaure board for the back ground. 

3. I tied the tulle in a bow onto the letter and then hot glued the letter to the board.

4. I hot glued the ribbon around the sides of the board (so the foam didn't show). Then I hot glued the tulle on the top and side.
