Who Said I Couldn’t Do This

Well life has been CRAZY, but oh so much fun and we have just been rolling with the punches.  Everyone is getting quite adjusted to life with 3 under 3 and I even ventured out today to make a Walmart run with all the kiddos.  They did great.  I wanted to post some orders that I completed right before leaving for Ethiopia and 2 that I have finished since I got back.  I had a huge order list about 2 weeks before leaving and knocked them all out except 2 and still have one big order that needs to be completed.  Not too shabby though for just getting back.

This first order was placed by Ellen who orders from me all the time.  She should get the customer of the year award.  Seriously she’s the best.  Anyways she is due any day with her little Audrey Kate.  Thanks Ellen and hope you are surviving.

Next is a pink girl monkey shirt for a little one in Kentucky.  Her grandmother Penny ordered this for her 2nd birthday…a monkey party of course.  Thanks so much Penny.

This sweet #1 shirt was ordered by Brooke for her little Aubrey who just turned one this week.  She had a sweet little flowered skirt, so I matched the flower on the shirt to her skirt.  Really cute.  Thanks Brooke.

Lastly is just a pure fun project for me for my sweet little niece McKinley.  Her birthday was Wednesday and her party is Saturday.  Unfortunately Harper is sick with none other than hand, foot, mouth disease and is extremely contagious…so no birthday party for us.  Really, really bummed.  I saw a tutorial a while back on a felt letter set and would site it if I could remember where I saw it, but I have been itching to try my hand at it.  McKinley was the perfect recipient for something like this.  Matches her to a tee.  I sewed her envelopes that have Velcro on the outside so she can switch up her stamps, addresses and return addresses.  Also made some post cards and letters.  She has a plethora of return addresses, stamps and addresses to go right along with it.  I also cut some cute little paper for her to make her own letters and piled it all into a hot pink organizer bin.  I am really pleased with how it all turned out and hope McKinley loves it.

I also with be offering this for purchase.  A set will include:  2 envelopes with Velcro on the outside and Velcro closure, 3 stamps with Velcro back, 2 letters, 2 post cards, 2 blank address labels and 2 blank return address labels with Velcro on back as well (personalize with a permanet marker).  The set will be $25.  I currently have an order list going, but am not starting to work on any new orders just yet.  So if you want me to put you down, just let me know.
