Twinsies

Twinsies! Little miss likes to match with her dolls. When I was going through her clothes I found a pair of leggings that were too short. They were a nice pattern and still had lots of wear left in them.  I decided to cut the leggings to make bike shorts. Usually, once Little Miss has outgrown her leggings the knees are worn and have holes. Since this pair was still in good shape I decided to make a matching outfit for her doll with the rest of the material. Using the material from the leggings I had enough material to make a doll dress, doll headband and hair bow for little Miss. What you need: •An old pair of leggings •Decorative buttons •Hair elastics •Needle and thread What to do: 1. Measure the leggings against a pair of shorts that are the length that you want. Measure and cut the leggings. Depending on the material you might need to hem the shorts so they don't fray.  2. Use one of the cut off legs to make the doll dress. Lay the material flat, in the center of the material

Mask Monsters

With the start of school comes the start of new routines and the new items on the back to school list. This year little man needs to have a container to store his mask in when he's not wearing it. I found these snack containers two for one at the dollar store. I hadn't planned on decorating the containers, other than labeling them but they looked like they needed eyes! What you need: Reusable plastic containers (the type that opens half-way for snacks) Monster eyes stickers Black permanent marker Make your hungry mask monster faces, don't forget the teeth! Happy crafting!
