Chart and Bags

Several months ago I saw some growth charts on etsy. I got a little nostalgic about when I was young and how my mom marked my height on the wall paper. I loved to see how I had grown. So I decided to make my own for Will. Well after SEVERAL breaks from the project I finished. HURRAY. I wanted to be able to mark every year on there so I finished it just in time because his birthday is in a month





Like most of my projects, it ended up not being as simple as I thought, but it would have been WAY easier if I had picked different paper or maybe found some wrapping paper that I liked, oh well maybe I will try again eventually. Plus I realized that I am not the best at modge podge, any tips on how to get the bubbles out of the paper?

A really simple project that I made is a bag to hold Will's bath toys. Even though it was easy it has been so helpful and now Will's toys are not taking over my bathroom. I found the idea here



The last project that I have done is a purse and I am pretty excited how it turned out. I used the McCall's pattern 6045.





Here is the inside of the purse, there are some pocket in there but it is hard to see.
