Crafty McCrafterson

So, some of you might know that I am a crafter.....but many of you don't have the full extreme of my obsession, it has grown and is taking over the WORLD! Ever since I got my monogramming machine I just LOVE making personalized things. Some of the teachers at school have seen my crafting talents due to baby shower, wedding, birthday and basically any time of year gifts I have given and have hired me out to put their children's names on everything =) I'm loving it. And making just a tiny bit of money on the side. Justin keeps telling me that I should sell my stuff online. The only problem is I forget to take pictures of all the stuff I make, and the ones I have taken pictures of are with a crappy camera or my phone. But I thought I would at least put some of my crafts on my blog so you could share in my excitment! The colors may look a bit off due to the crappy camera.

Here is a Koozie I made for my sister. It's really more of an electric blue with Leopard print and blue fur to match, just tacky enough to actually be cute:

Another Koozie that I made for a friend. This one is lime green with colorful stripes and blue fur. I also do ribbon on the bottom of these, or sometimes just leave them plain but I don't have any pictures of those:

A Koozie that I made for a teacher friend of mine. It's Hot pink with black and white paisley. It was sooo adorable:

This was the first keychain I every made. I've gotten even better and more creative with these. This one is hot pink with white polka dots and lime green writing:

A diaper cake I made for my friend who just had a little girl. Yes is is a cake made completely out of diapers...you don't eat it. This one was made before I discovered shrink wrap...what a grand invention. It is hot pink and zebra stripes with a little stuffed zebra hand puppet at the top: One of the first diaper cakes I ever made. Teal and light blue with brown striped ribbon:

Another diaper cake. I've recently started making them more interesting and adding more stuff to them. This one green and brown. It has an adorable plush froggie at the top. A bottle with a homemade bottle wrap in which I monogrammed the baby's initials. A "baby's first bible". And a personalized burp clothe with the frog theme and brown ribbon. And lastly, I printed and laminated matching little tags to put on each item that contained a bible verse for the baby (each verse talked about that particular item...you know, bottle = spiritual milk, etc.):

A cute burp clothe I made to match the zebra and hot pink diaper cake: Another burp clothe. Light blue and brown: Burp clothe I made to match the blue and brown diaper cake above:For a recent baby shower I made a little backpack full of goodies. I started by monogramming the baby's name on the bag itself (good thing for the church nursery later on). I added a stuffed little lamb, a monogrammed blanket, a bottle and monogrammed bottle wrapper, personalized burpclothe which is done in hot pink with white polka dots and lime green. I couldn't resist and did my laminated tag bible verses again on this one...it's starting to become a signature:

Here is a bottle wrap I made for my nephew. It is mainly for decoration but my sister says it is the only bottle he will hold by himself.....aww. it is blue and brown:

A bib I made for my friend Cheryl. I threw her baby shower and we went with the theme "A Pea In the Pod" so my gift DEFINITELY had to go along with the theme. This bib was added into the many items that her diaper cake contained:

I am quite physco and I embroidered Justin and Christi on our pillow cases...oh yeah, and Tyner on our sheets:

Blogger won't let me upload any more photos right now so I will have to make another post later...so many more crafts to show =)
