felted pebbles

i wanted to make a felted pebble rug but felting pebbles is difficult! i hand felted them but got tired so i wrapped them in panty hose and threw them into the washing machine. they were still loose. so i hand felted them again. they still have some loose ends. i dont know what to do!

bunting and diaper cakes

on sunday we had a bbq for 2 new mommies. i made girl and boy diaper cakes and also some bunting. sometimes i wish i knew how to sew. or i wish i had a sewing machine. i used tacky glue to glue the pieces of felt onto ribbon. i think sewing wouldve made the bunting much more sturdy

diaper cake

so i guess at every baby shower these days there are diaper cakes. its the gift that doesnt stop giving. well it does. but its definitely useful in that every baby needs diapers and diapers are expensive! i bought the newborn sensitive swaddlers for about $12 pack. the cake took about 2 packs i think. instead of using a bottle of lotion in the middle, i rolled up a blanket and some matching bibs. then i hung some toys around. tadaaaa

wingo

so my cousins baby boy, ryan is in love with wingo from pixar's cars. wingo isnt a main character but his image seems to be everywhere. i went to the disney store to look around and he was on almost everything mcqueen was on. they mentioned ryan wanting to be wingo for halloween so i thought i would make him a costume. this is actually wingo #2. wingo #3 went home with ryans dad to hk. wingo #1 was all felt, too big, and a complete failure. he has been incorporated into #2 and 3.
