Sometimes you can't finish a craft project until you learn a few more skills and get better at your art. I'm not the same person who started this blanket 11 years ago on my college ex-boyfriend's couch watching Lord of the Rings. 🤪😆

When you're stuck in the early labor stage, you convince yourself that baby won't come until you finish the moses basket bassinet you've been working on for forever. So there I was, bouncing on a birthing ball and finishing a bassinet at midnight in hopes this baby will come soon! 🤰

At least I know it's ready for your arrival, baby girl! 👶

Finally finished this Military Uniform Rag Wreath!

It features the no longer serviceable NWU Type 1 Uniform cut into 1" × 6" strips, our old nametapes and an olivia bow.

I've had this idea for over a year but the thought of cutting up these uniforms kind of bothered me (that what-if I need them again feeling). Then the thought of how long it would take to cut the strips stopped me from working on it. Luckily today I had a vision of determination that I would get this wreath over with and finally say goodbye to these uniforms that were taking up space in our house! I'm very proud of the results! Hope you like it!

Rag wreaths are very easy to do if you are willing to have the patience! It helps if you have old uniforms lying around to repurpose 😉🪖.

Merry Christmas!
We just made two cute new ornaments for our Christmas tree!

We followed
Simplicity Pattern J0209 to make a Gingerbread Man & a Yeti ornament!
They were both a labor of love but look adorable on our tree!
