Ruffly Pants

I've seen ruffly pants/bloomers like these at boutiques and they always make me think of Little Bo Peep. They are just so cute! Any little girl would look lovely in them. See how these ruffly pants were made HERE at The Project Corner.

Flag From Lathe!!!

Those of you who have ever lived in an old home (like I do) know about lathe and plaster! See what Notes from the Heartland did with some old lathe - made a darling lathe flag! I think this could easily be done with other slats on thin wood too. Go HERE to see how it was made.

Magnet Board Bow Keeper

This is an AMAZING idea! Head over the The Mother Huddle to learn about a magnet board bow keeper. Because many girls' bows have a metal clip, it will stick to a magnet (and thus a magnet board). Go HERE to see your next project!!!

Looky! Looky!

Here are some links I'm loving from today's party!!!!
Is this not the coolest airplane shelf you have ever seen? I saw it in an awesome baby nursery at Give Me the Simple Life. There's not a tutorial since it was bought, but I think it could be replicated quite easily. See the entire adorable baby nursery HERE.

I made my little guy a couple of reversible ties similar to these a while ago and I LOVE them. I need to make a few more. See how Lil' Luna made them and get the tie template HERE.

Don't you love the look of a chair wrapped with "expensive" fabric and tied with a bow in back? I do. It's a great way to dress up a dining room or reception! See how All Things Beautiful created her chairs with ribbon HERE.


I like this "twist" on zipper rosettes. See how she made them twisty at Krafty Mum. GO HERE.
