Half Pillow Case Dress

I bought a lovely set of pillow cases at the thrift store for less than a dollar. My intent for them was solely to make M&M two dresses/nightgowns out of them. My little one would wear dresses and nightgowns only if I had enough of them that she didn't have to wear pants!

This first one ended up being a half pillow case dress, because one of the pillow cases had damage to the top portion. However, I had some pink fabric that matched it perfectly. I came up with the back without a pattern:

When she grows some more, all I have to do is changed the straps and take the button and loop off and she'll get some more wear out of it.
I may not use the same exact pattern, or even a true pillow case but I would charge $10-$30 for a pillow case dress, depending on size and detail.

Halloween and Face Painting

I know its been like seven months since Halloween, but I'm just now getting around to posting about it. Trust me, its been a little busy around here!!!! lol

First of all, my dear M&M wanted to be a fairy butterfly for Halloween and I was determined to make the child a pettiskirt to go with her outfit.


And then she said she wanted her face painted...
not just painted, but painted to look like a butterfly and that mommy could do it! Apparently mommy has superpowers I don't know about, but of course, I tackled another thing I'd never done before, watching some youtube videos and came up with this:



And although I wasn't wearing a costume, I decided M&M (and JJ dressed and painted face of a lion) were having so much fun, that I would have some, too. M&M had the full face butterfly, but I went with the half butterfly:


Here are my munchkin and me with our suprisingly cute faces:

Little Girl's Crocheted Hat

I had the most fun making this one for my daughter, M&M! I've always wanted to tackle hats and this one was so much easy. I just love the edging on it.

who can say "no" to those blue eyes!! even as her mother, I find it very hard!

Here is a view of the back


I can make these for any size child. I would just need a few measurements emailed to me, and I charge $8-$20 depending on detail, trim, and size. My email is spiceyourspace@yahoo.com if you have any questions

Hat and Scarf

I love color! and my favorite color happens to be olive green, and pretty much any other shade of green. So when I found this soft olive green yarn I just had to make something out of it! I paired it with a russet color for a unique look.

and of course, no set would be complete without flowers!!

The sad part to my creation is that my mother stole it. yes, my sweet little minimaw mother! shocking isn't it!
...its okay though, the hat ended up being just a tad small for me with my thick hair and my mother's fuzzy wuzzy head was kept warm in it and the scarf was perfect for her to use when having her port accessed for chemo treatments. I think I might just forgive her for stealing it...
