Beaded Baby Things & Bread

I've been so out of the crafty mood for so long that I thought I'd never want to do anything again! Now that I am finally wanting to do things, my body isn't co-operating with me. I've always used my rotary mat on the floor to cut my fabric and WOW, do two kids in the belly make that harder or WHAT?! Well, I conquered that problem by just doing it anyway, and made some simple crib skirts today and I should have a few more things to show you sometime soon. Hopefully! While I have been chilling on the couch, I did manage to make some little bracelets for the girls, as well as pacifier clips. I of course have no idea if they will even want pacifiers, but I like to be productive while I watch Veronica Mars. So the bracelets came first, I wanted the girls to have them to match the dresses that my mother is making for their blessings at church! Oh I soooo can't wait to see what she does! She is making them in the French heirloom style and so they will be fantastic, just like all of the things that she makes. I'll be sure to share those whenever she finishes them. So anyway, the beads for all of these things came from JoAnn's and were on sale or I used coupons. The bracelet tutorial is here and the pacifier clip tutorial is here. Now for the pictures!

 Just for the sake of using the bananas, buttermilk, and blueberries I had, I decided to try this recipe and look how pretty it was!

And then I decided to take it out of the pan (as directed) to let it cool. I even sprayed my pan well! Oh man, this is one prime example of why I really dislike cooking :)
If I turn the load back over, you'd never know the bottom is ripped off. However, I feel like I have to justify my hatred of cooking... If my mom was making this, she'd have cut an exact replica of the bottom of the pan out of parchment paper and it wouldn't have DARED stick! Well, I'd rather be sewing anyway!

  1. Parchment paper is a life saver. But I always think taste is more important than looks :)
