Saturday Night Craft

While our husbands were busy watching the Jazz game Saturday night, Liz and I decided to get crafty. We went to a baby shower earlier that day and saw the cutest semi-homemade onesie. We were inspired, so we headed for Walmart and got 12 cloth diapers for $12 then dug out our scrap fabrics and voila... made these darling burp cloths.




A few weeks ago we also copied a Martha Stewart idea and decided to make glittery Easter eggs. We went to Hobby Lobby (our favorite) and got white plastic eggs for $1 and loose glitter $2, then borrowed some modge podge. After a few messes and lots of glitter on my table and floor we ended up with these beauties.




Way cheaper than store bought!


I realize it sounds like Liz and I are a couple, I guess that just shows how much studying our future DDS husbands are actually doing :)

How fun! And now that I know Liz I can imagine how much fun you two had doing that! Good for your hubbies to spend so much time studying (and watching the Jazz?) :)

Kylan agreed to get a belly shot on the blog sometime before the baby comes, now it's your turn! :)
