Our Easter Attire

Very, very late I know but, I had to share.  Like I have said before-- I love any occasion that you get to dress up for.
I wore a yellow dress borrowed from my bestie. 
My boys wore matching yellow pin stripe bow ties.
I picked their outfits up from Gymboree.  I had to have the overalls for West, they reminded me of something my little brother wore 20 years ago... I think my mother put tights on under his HA!  I LOVE them and they were worth every penny. 

 I am adding a few more OOAK hats to the shop too.  Check them out :)
 
 Hope you had an exciting weekend.  I did some thrift shopping.  I will have to share some of my recent finds soon, I always seem to find way too much :)

Wednesday Already???

This week sure is flying by and has been busy as usual.  I have been working on a few new project and driving myself crazy with every single one of them.  It takes me forever to design new items sometimes.  I just sit there and stare at what I have to work with and make piles and piles of objects that go together all around the house.  A few things have come together so far.  Like this cutie....
A simple new headband from some vintage trimmings and buttons.

Also, I used my Project ReStyle this week for a new hat in the shop.... again.  I couldn't help it. I need a little multitasking these days :)  
 I took this knit scarf....
...unraveled it... wound it up into one giant ball and crochet it into a few of these.....

These are new too!  They will be listed soon.  Can you tell I had an extra big golden button??
And here is a sneak peak (really sneaky) at something I am super excited about.
I can't wait till I can show off the finished piece in action!
Hope you enjoyed my rambling. 
Night Night.

Twinkle Star-- A Crochet Pattern

 This cute star pattern is super easy and fast to make.  I thought I would share. This is my first time writing a pattern for someone other than myself so I hope it makes sense.  Enjoy!
