quiet book part 2 of 4 (maybe 5)

next 4 pages 

so i go the lace & tie my shoes patterns from a great blog http://www.threadridinghood.com/wordpress/sew-along/
the hard part was finding shoe lace.  these are still a bit big, but it was the best i could do.  


the pie page looked too cute to not do.  and while i know i have never done a lattice weave pie crust, i had fun weaving this pie crust. 
pattern found here  http://www.rileyblakedesigns.com/cutting-corners/2014/01/17/cherry-pie/


this one, i used inspiration from my sisters quiet book.  i remember moving those beads up and down as a child.  p arranged the flower beads for me before i put them on the ribbon.  


every girl needs to know how to braid.  at least in my family.  point in case, i taught my niece how to french braid while they were here for a weekend stay this summer.  keep practicing k!

has frozen taken over?????

if you have at least one girl in your house under the age of say 8, chances are all you hear about is elsa & anna.  thankfully of the 5 girls in our house-i am too old to go crazy, so is the 19 year old, the 5 year old is more into am girls and the baby has no clue!!!  so that leaves the 3 year old.  she has decided she is elsa - has powers and needs gloves, and can 'froze' everything (should it need to be)
of course she had to be else for halloween.  the crown that came with the costume? crap plastic, that actually broke 5 minutes after being out of the bag.  granted i could have just gotten out my glue gun to fix it, but this momma knew better.  that thing would be played with!  i scoured the internet for a better solution and came up with this.  metal head bands with glittery canvas and a pretty jewel glued to it.  and i was right, they are worn a lot.  (i made 4 so that i could make sure 1 was still nice for halloween)  i should still make a pink one for the 19 year old princess, but that is a project for another day.
