I redid Elliot’s rocket ship wall decor to something that fit the existing color scheme a little better and with more designs to fill up the space. I used the Everyday Paper Dolls Cricut cartridge to cut the patterns out and then appliqued them with fabric and put them in embroidery hoops – my favorite […]

These appliqued dish towels were my neighbor gifts this Christmas, and they were even easier than the bath towel! I chose patterns that had more angles than curves so the edge stitching would be easier. (The flower and leave patterns are from Walk in My Garden and the bird is from Home Decor.) The process […]
Christmas is definitely not the only time we need great handmade gift ideas, and an appliqued bath towel is so easy and inexpensive to make and would make a great birthday, baby shower, or just because gift. I made this for my nephew, and it’s probably my all time favorite things I’ve ever made, mostly […]
My boys are getting matching superhero ponchos for Christmas! I’ve finished Gus’s poncho, and it looks like he’s getting ready to fly and save the day! Getting the size right was tricky – I measured Gus from fingertip to fingertip across his shoulders and got 23″. I cut the square bigger than that because from […]
I just finished this fabulous calendar using the Designer’s Calendar Cricut cartridge (that I got on Black Friday!), and I’m thinking a customizeable calendar is a pretty great gift idea for this Christmas! I bought a large white board at Walmart ($15), wrapped the edges in black electrical tape, and drew a calendar grid in […]
If you’re looking for some handmade ideas for Christmas this year, a vinyl menu board is a very easy and very inexpensive project that would make a great gift! I bought an 8×12 sheet of flashing at Home Depot for $.97, a roll of black electrical tape for another $.99, and some vinyl scraps I […]

I made up some more coloring pages with my Cricut and markers, and I wanted to share! Click here to view and print a PDF with these 3 Thanksgiving coloring pages from Paper Doll Dress Up. Thanksgiving is coming fast – I have to get my turkey and figure out what we’re going to have […]
Today we did Thanksgiving collages! I used my Cricut, Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge, and some construction paper to cut out some of the Thanksgiving designs, gave Elliot a glue stick and some paper, and he made this beautiful Thanksgiving collage! If you don’t have a Cricut, don’t let that stop you from doing holiday […]
Our family is young and I’m wanting to start some fun family traditions, especially for Thanksgiving and Christmas. The thankful turkey is a tradition we ‘re starting brand new this year! Starting the Monday of the week before Thanksgiving, we’re going to write down something we’re thankful for on a feather and add one each […]
