Homemade Purses

You know those little plain white fabric purses you see at craft stores sometimes? I've never took an interest in those, but mom had a great idea for them.
She bought 3 of them, then got out her sewing machine.  Now, I only know how to make the little ruffles on the bottom two, so I guess that your going to have  to go here again to find out how to make these gorgeous purses.
JUST AN IDEA: why don't you try giving some of these to your school teachers for christmas?

Drawing:Garfield

I absolutely LOVE drawing. I got the sudden urge to draw this morning when I was reading Garfield comics. So I drew some Garfield scenes. Here they are.

I just thought I'd show you. Hope you could read them OK.

Leaf Flowers

Who knew you could make pretty things out of leaves! Design Sponge has a post about Leaf Flowers. You can use a leaf and fold it in a certain way to make a flower!

Check out the site and make your own Leaf Flower! (Make sure you have green floral tape).

Thanksgiving Kids Table

Mom had a lot of good ideas for Thanksgiving, and the kids table is one of them. Since Mom didn't have any room for my brothers and I at the normal table, she made a kids table. My two favorite things on it are the turkey and the placemats.
The placemats don't look fancy because they are made of brown wrapping paper/packaging. The fun part about them, though, is that you can color them!
When you are bored at some point of the meal, just grab a colored pencil from the jar and start drawing!

You can find out how to make the turkey at:
One Charming Party.

On One Charming Party, just type in paper turkey in the search icon.

Thanksgiving Swag

Thanksgiving is here! And sometimes its hard to find Thanksgiving decorations. Mom came up with a home-made swag thats made of your worst fall enemy...........leaves.

What you do is get a long needle and thread it (make sure the string is really long). Then go outside and stick the needle through the prettiest leafs. Mom bought some orange lights to go with it and then hung it up.

There's your Thanksgiving deco. !

BagBalm

I can finally wear dangly earrings, the six weeks are up! The only thing is, my ears are sore,  and it hurts to take my earrings in and out. So my Mom suggested BagBalm. My grandma uses it, and mom used to.
Its supposed to really work, and it does!! Take my word for it.

Zoo Trip

 
 Well, we sure had a ball at the zoo today. Our grandparents took us. I got close-up pictures of all sorts of animals. This is going to be the post with the most pictures! You can see a......Scarlet Macaw, a Rhino, a Giraffe, a Leopard, Flamingos, a GIANT Anteater, a Black Bear, and a Fox.

So many animals! We saw all the animals in the zoo, but it took three hours plus lunch. And lots of the animals weren't there because they were sort of rebuilding, but we still had a lot of fun.
