I recently dived into making lollipop creations. For my daughter's first birthday, I bought a flower pot that I decorated, a Styrofoam ball, foam and tissue paper. I cut out flower shapes out of foam and hole punched a hole in the middle, then I wrapped a lollipop in tissue paper and stuck it through the hole. I then stuck the lollipops in the Styrofoam ball. It was a big hit at my daughter's birthday. It was lady bugged theme so I placed little ladybug stickers on the flowers in the flower pot.
I love to do projects including making my own cards, scrapbooking and doing projects with my two children and am constantly searching the internet for new ideas. My favorite type of projects are hand and feet projects. My mother in law loves to get tshirts with my girls hand prints on them. So I have created this site to help share some of my own designs and some that I have found on the internet from other moms like me. I hope you enjoy!

Construction Themed Doorhanger
For my friend's baby, I made this cute little door hanger. I bought a plain door hanger from Michael's and painted it. Then I added little construction embellishments I found and ribbon and beads. My friend loves it!
Diaper Clothes Line Advice Cards
I created these cute little diapers using heavy scrap booking paper and different designs. I folded them in the shape of diapers and attached a baby item on the front then curled ribbon and attached to diaper. At the baby shower, I will have these strung across the room. I have little advice cards for guests to fill out with words of advice then to stick their advice in the diapers. I cannot wait to see how it turns out! I also created a cute little storage box using a Huggies Wipes container for her to store all of her advice cards and the little diapers.
Construction Themed Baby Shower Sign and Memory Book
I made this sign and this little memory book for my friend's baby shower. For the book I created pages to write down favorite parts of the baby shower, a place to put Mom's picture and a place to write down gifts from guests. I placed stickers on heavy card stock then I used tulle and ribbon and hot glue gunned coordinating buttons to the ribbon. It has a really nice effect!
Little Angel Footprint/Handprint T-Shirt
I made these t-shirts using my daughter's footprints for the angel body, and handprints for the wings. Then I used fabric paint to decorate the shirts with their names and the year. Then I ironed on letters that say "Mommy's Little Angel," "Grandma's Little Angel." My Mother in Law loves her t-shirt and they turned out beautifully. It is something that I can always cherish to remember how small my girls were!
St. Patty's Day Shamrock Projects
I found these cute little ideas on the internet and added my own little spin on them with stickers. I love any excuse to use my children's hand prints in a project.
Handprint rabbit and Footprint duck
I made these with my two daughters using white paint. Then I cut out a bunny shaped head and glued it to card stock paper and added Easter stickers. My daughters loved seeing these on the fridge.
Handprint/Footprint Mother's Day Bag
For Mother's day I used my girls hand and foot prints to create butterflies on a bag. Then I used fabric paint and outlined the butterflies and added buttons and ribbon for embellishment. I liked it so much I made myself one too. Hope you like!
