Flapper Hat With Flowers & Ottoman Project

You

You're probably wondering what is she going to do with that ugly white leather ottoman? will this is the future of my ottoman, a friend of mine gave me the idea so I am going to make my own version of this.  I am not sure when, but I will be sure to post pictures of it when I'm finished.  I got the old white leather ottoman at a thrift store for $2, so fingers crossed.
This is the other hat I made yesterday too, this one and the owl hat.  I love the big fun flowers.
 Today is beautiful and sunny and I'm hoping to get the trampoline set up for the kids.  I'm going to attempt it on my own since Alfredos at work, I watched a video on youtube.com of how to set one up, I feel empowered, I can do this!!!

Manic Wednesday!!!

Finished two hats I had for an order, got 3 more to do.  The weather is gorgeous, I think that spring is here and summer is close on it's heels.  Yea!! my burn has healed from last wednesday, the blisters are gone so now I have a base peely tan that will eventually stop peeling.  And so here are the pictures of the hats I did last night and today.  Poor Ben had to model it for me since he's 4 and the hat is a size 4, he was so brave and was a good sport.

It's Rosette Season

 The Green one is definitely my favorite.  I have a bunch of rosette cuffs I need to photograph too.  I can hardly wait to strap one on with a cute sundress and go on a date with my hubby or something.

Baby Chloe in my purple and green owl hat.

I am not as good as I thought at this blogging thing.  I have gotten so busy lately with my orders that I've neglected it.
  I got a phone call on Wednesday from a gal in Spokane that I had sold an owl hat to, she wanted  me to see the picture of her baby in the hat that I'd made for her.  So I have this adorable baby Chloe wearing an owl hat and this baby is so beautiful.  You don't even notice my owl hat.  That she even called made my day and then to see the baby, it just really blessed me.
  I just got an order for 75 Rosettes, I'm excited.  I know I'm gonna be so sick of rosettes when I'm done though Lol.  Will this is such a great thing though, making money and being able to stay home with my kids.  It doesn't get any better than that, other than a vacation sometime in the future would be nice.  I can hardly wait for Summer, mesquitos and all.
