Getting Crafty and making money!

I have fun sewing...here are a few of the things I've made in the last couple months.  I either made them for myself, as gifts or to sell them at my Etsy shop online ( www.camillawall.etsy.com ). One of 2 purses I made...this one is mine :) Some microwave heat packs...  Key Fobs... Potholders for Christmas gifts... Selling Scentsy...here is a collection of some of the items that Scentsy offers.  I sell these to make a little extra money but I just really like yummy smells and this gives me access to a discount!  http://camillawall.scentsy.us

Holiday Fun!

We had lots of pictures taken of our Christmas tree so I thought I'd add one here...Tis the season! Here is a little project I came up with because all the cards falling down everywhere was driving me crazy!  It didn't take too long and didn't cost anything since I had everything on hand.  Kinda fun! Rylee made this cute letter with the candycane heart!  It says I love Mom, I love Dad, I love Dylan, I love myself, I love Jordan, I love Rusty....So cute!  And we all love Rylee! Rylee's class had a Christmas Elf party at school.  They were so cute and had fun!  Everything they did was for elves.  They made mini elf barbells (a pretzel stick with marshmallows on the ends) Elf cones (bugle chips with canned cheese squirted into them) Elf trail mix,  and mini milkshakes (made in baby food jar).  What fun!

Random Pictures December and January

I have a bunch of random pictures that I wanted to share from December (2010) and January (2011). Dylan played basketball this year and his team was undefeated!! Dylan has played the two years before this but they never had games with other teams before, so this was a first for Dylan. He had a hard time at the beginning but quickly picked up on the rules and became more confident in playing and ended up doing pretty good and having lots of fun! My kids are always making goofy faces and making theirselves look funny in any way they can think of. After getting out of the shower they combed their hair and came to show it off with their funny faces. I got a new sewing machine for Christmas that I absolutely LOVE!! It was totally a surprise and it really made my day :) This is Rylee's beloved blankie and it was falling apart. When I made the blanket, I made it with white flannel on the back (Dont ask me why I chose white). But after using it all the time and washing it tons it was looki...

My First Craft Fair

I attended my first craft fair. I had a small and very crowded table but I think it turned out ok. The pictures are fuzzy because they are from a cell phone.. I did ok with selling, every little bit helps! These heat packs were my biggest seller. I have learned some things that will be helpful if I do another craft fair.

Some of my new projects

I've been spending my spare time these days making a variety of new things and then selling them on Etsy. Here they are: Baby pacikeepers... Baby rag burp cloths... Drawstring gift bags... Reusable grocery produce bags... Baby and child washcloth puppets... And I have another idea or two that I havent started yet.
