Holiday Crafts and Such

I wanted to show you a few of the crafts my five year old created at school for us just before the Christmas break. I also wanted to share some memories of our family Christmas Day. I hope you all have a great week!

More Funky Pillows

Here are some more fun pillows to add flair to your home.

Unique Pillows

Since I can not sew a straight line at all I got this idea about 7 years ago to make a pillow, but not the traditional square shop. I played around with a little prototype and then started making larger sizes.

This week I want to feature unique pillows which can make a great accent piece to a bedroom, living room or any room in your home. These are pillows which I have created.

I got this idea about designing pillows, from a magazine article I read about but it's not your standard square pillow. I began by making a little sample pillow to see how it looked. I liked the result, so I began making full size ones. This started about about 5 years ago. I have one person who bought about 2 or 3 of them. They are very eye catching when displayed at art festivals. My first pillows were of women of different cultures. The other images were vases of flowers. Later I created smaller pillows of birds. This is my current theme. These fanciful quirky birds are so much fun to make.


It has been awhile since my youngest was born, but I will be making more for festivals coming up this spring.













The vase of flowers are in my sitting room.
