Her First Pillow

 This is a long time coming...

 I embroidered her name at the beginning of the year and had all the squares pinned and ready to sew. 

 Finally, this past week I sewed it together and layered 6 pieces of batting on the inside.  I didn't want it to be too thick and high. 

She LOVES it.  She uses it in her crib and also uses it as a seat for cartoons. 

 She took it from me right away, and went on her way.

Burlap Tea Light Decor

 I saved my pineapple can

And wrapped burlap and hot glue together, around the can.  I added a strip of lace and a piece of twine for a bow.  Makes a cute tea light holder!

I also have been holding onto this Coke bottle.  I tried a similar thing.  I think it needs a flower or a piece of wheat coming out the top?  What do you think?

Cheap easy decor. Nice.

My Hand Forged Knife

My husband made me an appetizer knife!  He forged it out of a steel a rod I believe.  Very Cool! I figure something for my cheese ball since the holidays are coming, or a butter knife. 

He just started into blacksmithing and he's already made several pieces.  He's very good at whatever he puts his hands to.  He always amazes me.  Now if I could just learn his secret!

I love it!

What would you have made?
