Dress makeover
I found this cute dress for Ellie at Goodwill last week.
When she tired it on it was a little low cut, so I added a triangle of fabric to make it a more appropriate for a 7 year old. I also added a heart applique since valentines day is coming up.

Valentine Envelopes
I'm sewing felt envelopes for all the valentines this year. I need to make at least 65 so I thought I better get started. I have almost all the envelopes sewn together then on to decorating!

Homemade Crackers
So I thought I'd try out making homemade crackers. I tried this recipe, and I they are actually pretty good. They taste very similar to the store bought fish crackers. Ellie says they need more salt, and they do have about 1/2 as much sodium as store bought. Which may be the only thing really healthier about them, I think next time I might try to add some veggies and see if they still taste as good. I followed the recipe exactly, just used a small heart and guitar cookie cutters instead of fish. I think the key is to make sure you get the dough thin enough and then bake them til they are crisp.

Wipe box makeover
Another pinterest inspired idea...
I took a couple of old baby wipe cases and covered them with fabric. Now they hold all our card games!

Measuring cup hooks
After seeing this on pinterest Pete and installed some cup hooks in our cabinet. I also put up a cork board to post notes, it also provides a little padding so the cup aren't banging around so much.
