Being Crafty Until Baby Comes

I figure once Baby Fisher makes his arrival next month I won't have the time, energy, or creativeness to be crafty for awhile. I really enjoy coming up with ideas and making things for around the house, it also helps that usually doing things myself is a lot cheaper than buying things already finished. I definitely get frustrated at times, but I love the sense of accomplishment I get when I actually finish something I created. Most of the things I've done recently have been baby related (shocking), and I've been trying to use my sewing machine more too for practice.

Here are a few of my recent projects:

Burp Cloths for Baby Fisher made out of fabric and cloth diapers.

These burp cloths I made for my friend Kelly's and cousin Ryan's baby girls.

I made these "babylegs" for Baby Fisher for when he is crawling around to protect his knees. They will also make diaper changes easier since I won't have to remove pants, but will keep his legs warm. I bought a couple of pairs of knee socks at Target on Clearance, cut off the feet, and sewed a hem around the bottom. Basically they are baby leg warmers. :)

This is a mobile we have hanging in Baby Fisher's nursery. The theme of his room is Little Mister- so lots of mustaches, bowties, and hats. I sewed the bowties myself and bought the mustaches on Etsy. I painted embroidery hoops to match the room and tied everything together with fishing line. It was kind of a pain to make, but I love how it turned out.
