Baby Wreaths

I love making wreaths fpr the door at the hospital when babies are born.  I have made quite a few of these, but I can't seem to find many pictures of them on my computer.  I know I took pictures, but I just can't find them right now.
 
Baby Bella's wreath.

 
  
  
  
It looks much better on Christina's door!

This is the only other picture I could find.....
 
This is my 2 year-old nephew Jordan's wreath.

 
At least I have an example of a boy wreath and a girl wreath!

These are so much fun to make!

Flower Bows

When making stuff for Baby Bella, another thing that I realized I really enjoy making is flower bows.
 
Pink and green.

 
Green.

 
Blue and Purple.

Bow Holders

When thinking of things that Baby Bella might need that I could possibly make I decided I would try to make a bow holder.  Every little girl needs a bow holder.
 
This is the bow holder I made for Mackenzie.  Her walls are pink, so it looks much better on her walls!

 
  
  
  
Here is Ameslee's bow holder.

 
  
  
Bella's bow holder.

 
Bella's walls are turquoise, so I think it will look great on her wall.

 
  
Bella, Mattingly, and Ameslee's bow holders.

 
Another one of my friends at work saw Mackenzie, Mattingly, and Ameslee's bow holders and asked me to make a few.  

 
This one is for McKenna.

 
  
Both of these are pink and chocolate brown, just different ribbons.  Of course I got all of the supplies at where else.....Hobby Lobby!  I love that store!

 
  
Here is Bella's bow holder with bows on it.
If you know anyone who wants one, just let me know!  I love making them!

Baby Bella's Gifts

I had the best time shopping for Baby Bella!  I wanted to share some of the things I found.  
 
This is a tutu and head band for Baby Bella.  I ordered it from Stacy at www.clouddust13.blogspot.com.

 
These precious onesies and skirt were also made by Stacy.

 
This is the back of the apple onesie.  Too cute!  Stacy is also a wonderful photographer.  You should really check out her blog:  www.clouddust13.blogspot.com

 
A friend of mine from work, Kim, made these precious onesies.

 
Her business is called Kim's Kreations.

 
She also made these burp clothes.  I had them embroidered at Artisic Stitches in Searcy.  They do a GREAT job!

 
My sister-in-law, Malinda, made these wipe covers, burp clothe, and taggie.  Her website is mgccondra.blogspot.com.  She makes really cute bags and all kinds of other stuff.  You should check out her blog.

 
These are baby leg warmers!  I think babies are so cute in leg warmers!  Baby legs are great, but cost 3 times as much as these target brand leg warmers.  Won't these be cute with those onesies?!?

 
I found these cute zebra shoes at Heart and Soul in Searcy.  They are Baby Bella Miya.  And these socks are trumpette socks.   They are the mary jane ones.  I just love them!  I found them at a kiosk in McCain Mall.

 
These are a few of the bows I made.  They all have alligator clips on the back of them so that they can be taken off and exchanged for other flowers or bows and when she gets bigger they can be worn in her hair without the hats or head bands.  The feathers I bought at Hobby Lobby and put alligator clips on the back of them, so you can take them off the bows or switch colors to match different outfits.  I found most of these head bands at a dollar jewelry store in Hot Springs.  I don't remember the name of it, but it is in the shopping center next to Wal-Mart.  I found them for the best price there.

I had so much fun shopping for Bella!  Little girls get to have the BEST stuff!
