Craftyness

Fussypants Isabelle is being her usual fussy self, so for my own sanity I have been
hunting for my baby carriers. I made two of these for Isaac when he was a baby, but
after searching multiple times, I thought it would be quicker to make a new one,
plus I needed some relaxing sewing time. So, while Lee walked the screamin' demon,
I created my newest baby carrier. As a reward for my efforts, moments after placing her in it, she fell asleep and took a lovely hour long nap.
To add to the craftiness, my new calling is the achievement day girls.
I decided to make homeade lipgloss. After some experimentation, I came up with
a fabulous recipe for a coconut lime lipgloss. The main ingredients are below.
If anyone is interested in the recipe, I will type it up, plus I have everything, so come make some! I made the gloss with the girls today, and we put it in these cute heart shaped tins.
They turned out cute, and oh so smooth and glossy!

Homemade lipgloss? I want that recipe! Not sure what I will use it for, but I love the idea! You are so crafty, I wish I had 1 ounce of your craftiness!

oh man, as fussy as she is I have to say that she is still the cuttest! I can't believe that you just threw together that baby carrier!! That just isn't fair. I agree with jackie on wanting just an ounce of your craftiness! When you feel up to it we could come up and let brinley and sophie make more lipgloss. Brinley would love that! Hang in there.
