Easy “Custom” Curtains

11 Jun
Easy custom DIY baby curtains

I was originally planning on making all the bedding and curtains for the nursery, but being pregnant has made me a little tired and lazy (plus I want to concentrate on the fun items, like the quilt and a bird mobile).  I am VERY slowly working on the quilt (which will probably serve as a wall ...

Baby Quilt progress

1 Jun

Here is the aqua, blue and green baby quilt I am working on.  I used a pattern that Oh Fransson sells at her etsy shop and I guiltily used a lot of the same fabrics that she used in her quilt.

The Camera Camera Case

17 Feb

  I came across these unique camera and iphone cases by Hine Mizushima on Etsy and they are so cute, simple and obvious.  I mean, shouldn't your camera case look like a camera and your phone case look like a phone? Duh.  I also love her vibrant color combinations and careful details such as buttons ... View Post
