Sew Your Own Cosmetic Bags

I think I'm drawn to all the sewing projects because my sewing machine died this month and I'm in desperate need of a new one! So far it's looking like I'll be waiting til January til we can afford a new one. :( This will have to stay on my to-do list until then. These cosmetic bags are so cute! I can't wait to make some for my friends and family.

Happy Meal Toy Wreath

I suppose some people might think this one isn't a 'Pretty Little Craft', however, if you have little ones like I do you might think this is a cool way to do something with all those 'junk' toys they have laying around. When I saw this Happy Meal Toy Wreath I instantly thought of the playroom at my mom's house. She has lots of fun stuff hanging up on the walls and this would make the perfect addition!

Super Cute Tote Bags

Found this tote bag tutorial on the same website as the Hobo Bags I posted about a few days ago. I just love all the detailed pictures and the simple instructions. Also love that there's a printable version of the instructions!

Beautiful Nursing Cover


Both my sister and I are pregnant with babies due at the beginning of next year. So yes, babies are very much on my mind! I really wanted a cute nursing cover like this when I was pregnant with my second son, but never wanted to pay the price tag. Now that I have a sewing machine and plenty of fabric I plan to make a few!

The one pictured above can be found in this tutorial.

Baby Binkie Bunnies


Last week I found out that I'm having yet another baby boy due (#3!) at the end of January and that means I have nothing but baby on my mind! (Ok maybe not since I do still have a household to run and two little ones to fed, dress and take care of.) 

When I saw this cute lil bunny I knew I wanted to make it. How adorable is this?! Seriously. Then I took a look at all the other stuff this awesome blog contained... 

Oh my. I'm in heaven.

Fabric Beaded Necklace

I keep seeing these fabric beaded necklaces pop up every where on the internet. I think they're so cute, seem easy to make and there's so many different color options for you to choose from! This is on my definite to-do list.

Recycled 2-Color Tee Skirt

I love an old t-shirt... Like those ones that are so soft and comfy from all the wearing and washing it went through over the years. This tutorial is a great way to re-use them to make something new! If you don't have any old tees laying around you can always find some at your local thrift store for pretty cheap.
