I made these as gifts for some family friends. Just use a doll dress pattern and there you go!

RFKC
I had the most amazing week of my life. I spent a week at a foster and abused camp being a staff member and I have never been so transformed. I met kids who stole my heart and broke it. They taught me so much and I met God in each of them! I will never be the same again, and I will make as much effort as possible to be involved in Royal Family Kids Camp from here on out! I cannot even describe to you what happened our how exactly I changed...I just know its for the better!

Winter Formal Dress
I decided to make my dress for a school dance. I really love it because it makes me think of a modern Cinderella dress! It was a struggle, I probably made it 3 times because I kept getting it wrong, however the end result was worth it.

DIY Queen
So I love Pinterest and maybe the Queen of DIY, I have a really good board so feel free to follow it to see some of the places where I get my inspiration and you can make them too!

Name Banner
This is a super easy super fun project that makes a great gift. I actually made it for a school project.
All you need is:
-Felt
-Name
Cut a triangle out of the felt. Then cut out the letters, you can choose to hand sew the letters or machine stitch them on. I hand sewed them because I found it easier. Then you are done!
Super fast, easy and a great gift
Throughly Modern Millie
Probably one of the best things I have ever created! This dress I designed and made the patterns for, by hand. Everything was done from scratch.
The dress was for Maranatha High School's musical production of Throughly Modern Mille. My friend was Millie so it was super fun to get to dress her! In tradition the dress is a red but I did not want to do ANOTHER red dress (we had just done Anything Goes), plus the color wasn't good for the skin color of her. Therefore making it purple made it feel more rich and flattered my friend.

Hand Beading
I always admire the time people take to hand bead pieces of clothing and stitch each bead on. I also don't want to pay $15 for a beaded headband! I decided to give it a try with these shapes and I then made the starfish into a headband. I look like the little mermaid when I wear it!
I like how they came out. If you are willing to spend time sticking, it really isn't that difficult.

Ribbion Bag for my friend Bella.R
I made this bag on my vacation to West Monroe Louisiana I actually made this cute bag for my new friend Bella Robertson from A&E's Duck Dynasty. I made it out of ribbon and some basic muslin fabric. I sewed to 95% by hand and I love how it came out. Never forget that layers can be a magical thing!

Book Bag
Literally a book-bag! I loved this project. I made this bag for my best friends birthday present. I used a book I bought from a thrift store and cut out the pages (I know, she cray!). I then glued fabric on the inside and made triangles so that it could open. Last attaching these clearance handles from Jo Anns Fabric Store. It can actually hold items.
A little tip. Always re-enforce the spin with Duck Tape!
Thats all on this one!

Minion Tie DIY
One of my favorite creations was this Minion tie that I made as a gift for my dad. It wasn't very hard but very adorable! I had a tie before hand that was just plane and so I made my minion and tacked it onto the tie! Boom! done!
