Whip Up This Simple Crocheted Hat In a Couple Of Hours



Please Share the Love
Hi there. Welcome to my little blog.  I am so glad that you are here. 

Today I want to share one of the projects that I completed recently. I was in the mood to crochet and I wanted something quick - I wanted instant gratification - but what to do.

 Then my daughter came home with a new hat for her little girl. It was cute - simple - easy - inspiration for my next project.

 I was able to whip up a crocheted hat in a couple of hours. So I made three - one for each granddaughter. Well except for the granddaughter that already had a store bought hat.
Honey Bunny wanted a blue hat with a red flower.


Baby Cakes and Sweetie Pie love their new hats.

The flower was not as easy as the hat. You can see that the red flower is different than the off white flowers. It was my first attempt and looking at it now, I think I like it best.

45+ T-Shirt Refashion Tutorials

Hi, so happy you decided to drop by. Okay, no small talk. Let's get right to the round up. It was a lot of work but I hope you think it was worth it. I tried to choose a variety of sew and no sew projects. Plus there is something for the whole family - sorry, except your hubbies. No offence guys. There just isn't anything out there. Back to the round up. Wondering why I wrote 45+ tutorials?  You probably already know. I didn't. Why would someone write a number then plus. Don't they know how many links they included? I think I finally figured it out. Light bulb! The plus sign is for those blogs that have several t-shirt refashions on their site. Is that right? Oh well that's my guess. Now back to the round up. Sorry one more thing. The links to the original blogs are all listed at the end of the round up. 45+ T-shirt Refashion Tutorials Links to the projects. How To Make a Fashion T-Sh

DIY Wind Chimes - Recycle Spoons

Image
Hi there. So glad you decided to stop by and check out my DIY wind chimes made from recycled spoons. I had to make something to meet the May Craft Challenge. And I was lucky enough to get all the supplies for under two dollars. Score! Bummer I din't finish it on time. My supplies include six spoons, fishing line, an old candle holder and a clip I had hiding in my stash of goodies. Since I don't have a drill or anything to make holes in the spoons to thread the fishing line through, I had to find a different way to hang my spoons.  If you look at the picture to the left, you can see the spoons are wrapped and tied with the fishing line. I decided to use the candle holder upside down. It just seemed to look better. I tied the spoons to the candle holder - the wind chime base. Then tied the line around the candle holder feet and finally pulled them altogether and tied a knot. If you liked this post, pleas
