Strawberry picking, and making...

Violet and Henry have fond memories of our blackberry and peach picking adventure last year and talk about it often. So, when I mentioned strawberry picking to them recently they didn't even blink an eye before they were ready to jump in the car and go. Of course, we didn't... Continue reading

To string them up I cut a long piece of butcher's twine, tied a knot at the bottom of the string, then poked a hole through my first cup, thread the twine through the first cup, then tied another knot about 2-3" up threaded the twine through the next egg cup and so on. Each egg cup is being held by a knot that was tied beneath the hole. I hope this helps.

I was so surprised how excited Violet was about the skirt...I thought for sure it would bother her b/c it was so long and that it would make it difficult for her to run and climb, etc etc etc...but she had no problems at all...of course... I didn't make hers super long...

Bird Clothes for Bird Lovers...

So I bought this awesome knit (which seems to be quite popular) from Girl Charlee a few weeks back with the intention of making Violet and Henry some fun new summer pajamas, but then I changed my mind and made something for myself instead... Yes I felt guilty about it... Continue reading
