CHILD'S APRON WITH ICE CREAM CONE

I bought a blank hot pink child's apron, some really colorful bits of fabric and some iron-on fusible webbing.  I decided I wanted to make a large ice cream cone on the top front of this apron.  So, I took the fusible webbing and ironed it onto some yummy pink polka dot fabric and did the same to some star studded blue fabric and some fabric with cherries on it.  Cut out the shapes, positioned them on the apron and ironed them on, adding the cherry on top and a drop of melting ice cream on one side. I outlined it with dimensional glitter glue (for fabric) for added glitz.  Loved it!  Really easy but soooo pretty!!  Early start on Christmas gifts!!!♥

SEWING KITS IN CANNING JARS

I have been working on some crafts for a crafts fair, here are some pictures of some Sewing Kits that I made with glass canning jars and lids, I really like them and I'm thinking of keeping one for myself. : )  They are "sew" easy to make.

CAROUSEL HORSE BOXES

I love Carousel Horses and I am always on the lookout for material or scrapbook paper with that theme and I recently found some beautiful carousel horse wall decor stickers, so I grabbed some up along with some papier-mache boxes.  I painted the boxes inside and out then decoupaged the horses on to the lid of the boxes, added some pretty trim, sparkly gems and lots of fine glitter.  They will make really nice treasure boxes for some lucky little girls.  I think (hope) these will sell at the craft fair.
