Thank you Pinterest!

Pinterest, you dark horse. I thought you'd be something I could just browse and have fun with. Not so. You force me to make things. So many things. You've forced me to stop saying, "I'm not really creative" because no will believe me anymore. I've ripped off so many ideas from you that I've officially become a "crafter". I've made things to wear, gifts of all sorts, decorations galore... I've even made my own dishwashing detergent. Below are some of the things I have made after pinning my face off. Enjoy.


Mustaches on a stick. My kids pretend they're French when they're wearing them.



Fabric scrap flowers. This one was glued to a pin and stuck on this onesie for my great niece.




More fabric flowers. Some are glued to barrettes and some to pins. It's a multi use craft.





A mustache on a pin. I gave it to my great niece to stick on a onesie.




Mustache binkies. So help me...




A binkie in use on my great niece.




Multi use piece of fabric. Cut some arm holes and use it as a vesty thingy or twirl it up and use it for a scarf.




Another shot of the fabric thingy.




Washers stamped with metal alphabet stamps. This one didn't turn out so well, but I've made others and they're adorbs.




I even learned how to carve my own rubber stamp. Seriously.

We recently had my mom's 60th birthday party and it was a Pinterest spectacular. I can hardly contain my creativity, or your creativity, as the case may be.

Peace out and happy pinning!

Heidi

Um...AWESOME. Can we please have sisters craft night sometime??? I love doing stuff like this, but don't have ideas of my own. Also, you MUST teach me how to do that necklace. I was wanting to give Karly something like this for Christmas. Is it expensive? How did you stamp the washers? Is it actually engraved into the metal? So many questions!!

There is a strong Movember theme here. I'm growing a mustache.

WoW!!! :) I love the mustaches! :D

I've got a front loader, can't see why you shouldn't be able to felt in it? The felting has to do with the movement while washing.. That's all.. I guess a front loader moves around while washing? Right? Hehe..

Good to hear from you! Hoping you're all doing fine!! :)
