Cape Hatteras National Sea Shore

This June we traveled to the Outer Banks North Carolina. We visited the Cape Hatteras National Sea Shore and got to look around the Bodie Island Lighthouse. Here are some pictures of this amazing light house. This neat old lighthouse has a great background to it, to read the full history of the Lighthouse visit-

Garden of the Gods

 Yesterday my friend David and I took a hiking/Picture day at Garden of the God's, Colorado Springs Colorado. Here's a sample of what I got...

Winter Birds

 It was the rarest sight I had every seen, Robin's in the snow! It was a snowy day in Colorado and out side my window were these two robins! They were so cute, fluffy, and cold looking so confused at the snow! So of course I grabbed my camera and took the opportunity to shoot some good pic of these furry friends. Hope you enjoy them!

Disneyland Themed Birthday Party

For my Nephew's 2nd birthday the party theme was 'Disneyland'. The fabulous cake was created my my Mother, and she and I came up with the other goodies.

 We wanted to create goodies that you would find in the park. Here we have Mickey Rice Krispies dipped in chocolate...

 Princess inspired cupcakes...

and "Tigger Tails" Chocolate dipped pretzels for the party favors.

And the cake! The center piece for the party! Every thing just turned out fantastic! And all the little ones had a blast!

Twist Flowers

 Twist Flowers.

Here is what you will need:

-Hot Glue gun

-Round Felt circle 

(the size you want your flower to be)

-Strip if fabric

(you will need different lengths for different size flowers)

Here's how to do it!

1:  Cut your strips 1 inch wide or 2 inches, depending on how wide you want each layer of the twists to be.

 First you start with a the strip of fabric. Fold fabric in half and then in half again, making 4 layers.

 Fold one end of the strip over its self, leaving a tail, and a point

 Fold the side next to the end, making an "arrow" point. (Tail and strip will be side by side)

 Twist the end longer end of the strip, moving it over to the short end side, making a little knot type shape

(When twisting the fabric, always twist it out, away from the inside of the flower)

 Hot Glue the knot to the center of your felt circle

Squeeze a line of hot glue around the the knot, working in a circle.

Twist the strip outward and lay on the glue.

 Keep working around and around until you get to the edge of your felt circle.  

 When you get to the end, turn the rest of the fabric to the back of the circle and glue it down.

Here's the finished project!

 

Here's another flower I did this one was done with a 1" width.

 Hope you have a good time making your flowers!

-eggs made of twine dipped in watered down glue  + food coloring. 

-A little bit of fabric and here you are! 

Fun Easter wreath. Total cost $3.00!
