Red/Green/white stripe trees ..with Buttons Galore!! |
Christmas gift fabric.. trees.She did a Teacher tree with teacher buttons for her mom, who is a high school history teacher..[how sweet!] |
These little trees can be hung on your tree, or tie them on a gold cord and make a sweet garland. |
More of her decorated trees... Callie and I had alot of fun today.. I made the little trees, and Callie stuffed them slightly with batting. Callie then picked out her buttons and bows, to decorate the trees.. [This took a LONG time.,ha] Nothing says 'HAPPY" like a Saturday Crafting with your grandaughter!!! ps..She came last night, and for got to bring her gown. So while she was taking her bath, I took some flannel , laid a tshirt on it for a raglan sleeve pattern, and serged the majority of it on my serger.It took,maybe 15 minutes.. And girls, she loved it.. She didn't get dressed all day.. She wore this "wonderful long comfy gown" ..[and this is what she called it. FUN---FUN---FUN |
Brilliant and treasured crafting time of the year. You had a day of lovely memories with your sweet Granddaughter.

ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so glad that you and Miss Callie got a craft day together! Please tell her that I love her trees...they are so adorable! I'm sure that she had just the best day...spending it with Grammie!
What a great idea for a nightgown! You are one talented lady, my friend! I'm sure that Miss Callie will want to wear this all the time...and probably want one or two more!
Have a blessed day, sweetie!

Thank you Laura, Callie and I had soooo much fun.. And thank you for sharing the tutorial. She really wanted to go a step futher and 'decorate" ha. I will tell her what you said, she will be thrilled..
DeleteSo funny about the 'Quickie nightgown".. She didn't want to get dressed on Saturday.. Papa was teasing her, and telling her she looked like an old lady sitting around in her night clothes. with rollers in her hair.. She just laughed and replied to him, "oh but Papa, I may never take it off, it is so warm and comfortable and I feel like a princess".. Now keep in mind this is a serged quickie nightgown..definitely not a princess made gown..lol
Oh what fun the two of you had! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCathe, we had so much fun.. And she took her garland home and called me to tell me , how pretty it looked ,hung on the mantle in her bedroom..SO happy that she enjoyed it.
