Red Dresser
| I bought these dressers for $20 at a yard sale on Saturday. I really LOVE how they turned out! I am trying to decide on whether or not to add the mirror on the bigger dresser. What do you think? I would love a super cute quilt for her bed. I love this quilt! |

Applique Wall Art
I bought these wooden rings a the DI. The "I am a Child of God" was the only one I left alone. The other ones were taken apart and I made these new appliqued art to put in them. I hung them in the nursery.
Framed Patterns
I found these old patterns form the 70's at the trift store (DI) for 50 cents each. I painted some old dollar store frames I found in my basement and put cute scrapbook paper behind them.
Diaper Bag
This bag was made from some good deals! I bought the black fabric from a local thrift store (DI), the Amy Butler fabric (found in long 6 inch strips. I sewed them together) I found at another thrift store (Savers), I bought the pattern for the bag at Savers, and the interfacing I used is from a yard sale. I did alter the pattern a little bit, mostly the pockets and a few other places to get the max use out of the Amy Butler fabric.

Happy Girls
*EDIT*To make this, I used a thin canvas (not a stretch canvas). I am sure you could use either. I painted the background with acrylic paint. I cut the tree and girl out of felt. I layed it on the canvas and designed it as I went. I used my sewing machine to do some stitching on the tree trunk and her dress. I hand stitched her face. I glued it on with Fabri-Tac glue (LOVE this glue. I use it ALL the time. I may retire my glue gun.) I cut leaves from felt and also from some shimmery ribbon I bought at the home decor store (I use it to decorate for parties, on my Christmas tree, and on my railing at Christmas) I used the Fabri-Tac to glue on all the leaves. After the felt was all glued on, I used a needle and thread to make the rope for the swing. I glued buttons on the tree and green grass. I used rub on letters for the saying.
You could use whatever you have in your craft stash. Be creative!
