little creative moments

Over the past several months, I've had a little bit of time here and there to get crafty. I try to take pictures of my creations so that I have them on record, but also so that I can share them with you! I'm no artistic genius, but I do have a good time making goodies for friends and family. Here are a few that I've made that haven't been shared yet:

 I made these two pairs of earrings for two friends who had birthdays in August. 

Handmade with "<3" is not an official name, but I wanted to add a personal touch and let them know that they were made by moi and not purchased somewhere else.

 "Swan" is a family name of my sister in law, so when she received a gift wrapped in swan wrapping paper at her shower, I snatched it and made a little wall-hanging for Gabe's nursery--their little cygnet.

The friend whose shower I attended Saturday is decorating her baby's nursery in Muppet theme, so I put together this little painting for her and her husband with the lyrics to "Rainbow Connection."
