So...
it was my plan to post everyday this week as party prep took place and as decor went up.
But let's be real.
I'm a mom.
Of three.
Plans don't always work out...
HOWEVER,
I will share with you some of the many projects that were started AND FINISHED yesterday/last night/in the wee hours of the morn...
I made a dress.
And I'm NOT a seamstress.
I've never ever in the history of my life sewn a dress from start to finish before.
I have no clue if this will fit E, seeing as how she was fast asleep at 2am when I finished it, but I'll let you know how that comes out.
Did you hear me?
I made a dress.
(still kind of in shock that my dress actually looks like a dress)
Here's the cute book where I found the pattern for the dress that I MADE-
And, since the dress came out so darn cute,
I made a pillow cover for the bedroom.
(The sofa in the living room is about to get a splash of chevron too...)
Did I mention that I made a dress?
And since that just wasn't enough,
the hubs needed his name patches sewn onto his work shirts.
5 mintues- DONE
And, since I was on a roll...
I made 2 batches of the Pioneer Woman's salsa with the help of a cute little 6-year old.
It's the best.
And I mean that.
Did you know I make dresses?
Also...still working on the decorations for MM's Very Hungry Caterpillar table.
Started this food bunting last night that I straight up copied out of MM's little board book.
I'll share ALL the details for the party once I can actually photograph the tables with food on them. Right now they're pretty, but all of the dishes are empty, and who wants to see empty dishes?
So-
to recap,
yesterday I did a bit of sewing,
chopping/blending,
and paper-crafting.
That's a trifecta, folks.
A crafting trifecta.
actually I haven't the foggiest what that means,
I'm a little loopy from the non-sleep I've been doing lately so I'll take this as my cue to go to bed.
(yes, I'm posting this at 3:10 am)
So, goodnight friends-
and Happy Saturday!
(did I mention I made a dress?)
