Can she push that smile any more?



The more I look at photos and paintings the more I'm realizing how much I like contrast.

Crafty Christmas

Lizzy is super-human. Her will power blows my mind. I can't keep up with her productivity. It is truly inspiring.

She has got the creative bug, ideas are coming to her quicker and quicker, and this month was insane. She made this advent calendar.






Then she made a couple of stockings for the kids (the one with stars and the one with leaves).


After all that, she still managed to get a gift done for Secret Santa. This cupcake apron has some wonderful details which include pockets, ruffles, and sprinkle pattern trim.




As if that weren't enough, she whipped up this night gown for the little girly girl who loves Ariel.


So these aren't too crafty, but we had fun making them.
