before and after

For christmas, I got a silhouette cameo!
Since then, I've been cutting up a storm.



Any hoo! I had a $2.00 small white tee-shirt in my stash, but it's cold here in Indiana!!


So...Enter an old well used long sleeved infant shirt.
(sorry I forgot before pics)


First I cut off the neck, sleeves and bottom hem. This is what it looks like now.







I then attached each in it's proper spot inside the white shirt.






My grandson LOVES tractors, so his Mimi ( that's me) just had to cut one out of flocked vinyl and iron it on the front of the newly designed shirt.



I also added his name ( which happens to be the name of a tractor co. in Indiana!) to the tractor. Soooo cute!

Spring Fever

With spring here and summer right at its heels, I started thinking of my garden. Last year I had trouble remembering what herb was what, because my plant names were written on Popsicle sticks. I love to plant tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, flowers and herbs, so I decided to make these copper plant stakes. (Copper tooling found in craft stores-- Michaels or Hobby Lobby).

The wind and rain won't destroy them and no more guessing!
