The Cutest Turkey Shirt

I've been wanting to make Little Man a turkey shirt to wear on Thursday.  Of course, I waited until this week to actually put it into action.  I searched the entire town to find a plain white short sleeve t-shirt in his size with no luck.  I finally found a long sleeve white shirt at Target today and decided that I had to use it.  I had already drawn my own turkey template, but then I happened upon this one over at The Cottage Home.  I decided to use it instead of my own.  The shirt turned out super cute if I don't say so myself.  I found some fabric scraps at the store that semi-coordinated and got to work.  Don't forget to make sure you have Wonder Under in your craft stash before you get to work.  I searched and searched this afternoon in my craft closet and couldn't for the life of me find it - so I had to make another trip to Hobby Lobby!  That's not always a bad thing...

Here's the super cute shirt for Thursday.  I still need to give the turkey eyes and a beak, but it's basically finished!  I'm so happy with it!

Glittered Pumpkins

As soon as I found this tutorial, I knew I would be making glittered pumpkins soon.  I love having a few holiday decorations out, but I rarely find anything that I am willing to pay the asking price for.  Call me frugal if you want, I don't mind!  After seeing how to decorate the craft pumpkins and just how easy it looked, I couldn't wait to get started.  I went out the next day to Michael's to purchase supplies.  For under 20 bucks I have these...

Are those cute or what?  It was so easy, the hardest part was the dripping glue.  It took me a few days to finish only because I never sat down more than 30 minutes at a time to work on them.  I also made this little white one with black glitter to go with the spider pumpkin that Little Man and I made at Michael's a few weekends ago. 

That one is also super easy.  You need a black pumpkin, some pipe cleaners, white paint, glue and googly eyes.  Poke 4 holes on each side of the stem and insert the pipe cleaners.  Bend the pipe cleaners to look like creepy crawly legs, paint a mouth and glue on the eyes.  Easy and done!  We had fun making it!
