Just curious....for those of you who put together Easter baskets what kind of things do you like to put in them besides the obvious chocolate? Any favorite stores or websites you shop from??? I am tired of the same old kind of stuff. Haha

I try to do things OTHER than candy in the kids baskets, they always get a new tooth brush, last year they each got a new webkinz, one year I put MR Potato head with a bunch of accessories hidden in eggs for easter egg hunt. Another year I gave them books, well a wagon filled with books, This year I am thinking of doing a book club/membership where they will get a book each month, or a magazine, so it goes all year not just that day. I'm not sure tho. I usually put little things in it too, from $ store or Targets $ spot, hair/dress up stuff for my DD and cars/dragons/legos for my boys.

Now I don't mean to get the Walmart thing rolling again, but I have a question about those that have gotten rid of their fabric departments. Does anyone remember if the sewing machines were clearanced also? I have seriously been thinking of a new machine as mine is 25 years old and very basic.

My walmart has their fabric down to 50% right now, no sale on machines tho, they just got a new stock in last week there were NONE left now there is a pretty big stash of them on the shelves so I'm not sure, I want them to clearnace them so I can buy a serger

I never have put candy in Georgia's basket. She doesn't do well with sugar (or candy) so I just don't do it. She gets lots of little dollar tree things. She always gets a Stuff bunny with the year on its foot. socks, tooth brush, hair stuff, a barbie (if its on sale) fun little Easter type notebooks and crayons or pens, Sometimes I will fill plastic eggs with jewelry or sugar free fruit snacks. bubbles, jump ropes, playing cards, Little things that are not costly so in a few weeks when all is forgotten about it can get tossed. hahaha

This year she might get a DS game and a few little Dollar tree things and her bunny.

Peach's tooth came out last night in her sleep.... She woke me up this morning before the alarm went off. Started off like this...

Peach: Mom..Mom.. hey mommy
ME: Yes pumpkin butt
Peach: I had a really strange dream last night
ME: you did? what was it about
Peach: Well....I was playing with my tooth, and I was watching Space Buddies, Isn't it funny that I was watching in my dream but never seen it in real life, mom, isn't that funny
ME: Yes silly girl, thats funny
Peach: MOM! don't call me that
ME: ok..
Peach: so in my dream I was watching the movie and I fell asleep with my pillows like this (like a chair) and I was sucking my thumb and THEN all of the sudden MY TOOTH CAME OUT!!! I woke up and I was lookin for it, and couldn't find it. Oh dear, Mom you know what happen in my dream??
ME: what happen?
Peach: I SWALLOWED IT!
ME: No... really, how funny.
Peach: MOM... LOOK LOOK! My tooth is GONE. Its totally GONE mom! and guess what?
ME: what Peachykins
Peach: I really did SWALLOW my tooth!

Isn't that just the cutest!? Then we had to have the discussion on where the tooth goes... try having that convo to a kid who didn't get we just can't um clean it up when we find it! hahaha

She told my cousin that the tooth fairy was trying to pull it out probably and dropped it down her throat! hahaha oh man too cute. So here are the pictures

Her trying to eat breakfast

Here is the note she left for the Tooth fairy explaining about her tooth. Soo cute. I love it. Look at the "O" in her name at the bottom.. hehe

and of course the tooth fairy gift and note card. She leaves notes with money. ANd this time a little carebear because she felt bad about "dropping the tooth"

How sweet, you have the BEST tooth fairy ever I think? LOVE it!

 

[PrincessKell]

How sweet, you have the BEST tooth fairy ever I think? LOVE it!

hahaha yeah... I am pretty sure Georgia will think so too. Normally our tooth fairy also leaves a tooth brush, but she JUST got one like a week ago because my roomie's dd used Georgia's. Ugh... she fully knew it was Peach's brush that was unopened from Santa. anyway that is another post another vent. HA! So I ooh I mean *tooth fairy* did the care bear instead. haha

 

[Haganfam5]

I usually put a lego in Dallas' basket now. When he was younger I always did summer things. Chalk, bubbles, baseball bat, roller skates and the like. Swim stuff. His birthday is 2 days after christmas so this was the perfect opportunity to give him everything he would need for summer.

Wow! My son's birthday is also 2 days after Christmas and that's exactly what he is getting this year in his basket! He loves lego Star Wars actually, everything Lego!

Just curious....for those of you who put together Easter baskets what kind of things do you like to put in them besides the obvious chocolate? Any favorite stores or websites you shop from??? I am tired of the same old kind of stuff. Haha

Usually a DVD, a Webkinz.....stuff ike that. And they don't get chocolate. My son couldn't have it, and one of my dds doesn't like it. I usually get them a Wonka Scrambled egg instead. It's filled with nerds, runts, Laffy Taffy etc....

If I'm feeling particularly ambitious, I'll sew the girls a dress or something too....

Ths year, they'll get some Disney Dollars...

 

[minnie2]

I have just finished a few more things. I have been pretty busy lately. I just started working at Gymboree again All of my ds's shirts were easier than I thought they would be

DD's ariel was from a pillowcase. This was pretty hard for me. It took a lot longer but I am happy with the results.

Sorry if pic sizes are off. I can't get phobucket to cooperate with me.

So cute! -I may have to Make that LE outfit for my nephew!

I have been swamped at school this week (state wide testing) but I had to jump on when I saw the posts with long-torso girls! That is so funny! We should make a club with our long-waisted girls!

I was just thinking about you wondering where you where. When I posted about Nikki being tiny but long torso I thought of Megan. Seems like they are built so similarly. Nikki had her slenderized tests last week.

Isn't it weird that so many of us have long bodied girls? I have a long torso and it took me until last year to figure out that Lands End sells long torso bathing suits

Adding to the MIL conversation...Aisling's dance teacher must be related to my MIL too! They measure the kids in the fall for costumes for the spring recital. Last year a bunch of the kids- including Aisling- had WAYYYY too small costumes because they had growth spurts. This year she decided to add two inches to all Aisling's measurements "just in case"...and what size does the costume company send??? A 12-14 I can't do anything about it being so baggy but I have to figure out how to take up the sequined straps to make it a little more "modest" or we are going to have a major wardrobe malfunction. Luckily it has a tutu so you can't see how baggy it is around her little rear nd

I didn't realize Land End had those! Right now I push Nik into a 2 piece since she is so tiny I figured do it now in case you can't later!
Same thing happened with the cheer uniforms.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Morgan! Look how pretty she is!

I usually do some books and maybe a movie or a video game or even a toy they really want. My mom usually gets them Bunny Big Ears because it is a joke with her and I . When I was little I always got him because my mom ALWAYS eat the ears off my bunnies! She usually gets them either a toy but this yr Nik is so into clothes my guess is she will get her an outfit either from the Disney Store or Justice. George's family usually only does toys. Yeah I know sounds like Christmas on Easter. It kind of is. Though this yrs Easter is going to pale in comparison to last yr. Because my kids where in WDW with their Aunties being spoiled rotten!
I think I go a bit over board with Easter because it was the last holiday I had with my daddy ad this yr Easter falls on the anniversary of his passing.

tell her don't worry they tease the tall girls too, my dgd is about to be 13 in May and she is already 5foot 9 inches she wears a size 12 shoe try to find something cute is hard and its hard to sew for her because she is all legs

WOW that little girl is going to be a supermodel!
When I was a kid I was always the GIANT! I was fully developed in 6th grade! You would have thought I would be 6 ft now by how big I was. So much so when some old elementary school friends just found me on facebook every one asked if I was very tall. Nope I am a shrimp of 5'4" they where all shocked! LOL

OOOH Jessica...............

Guess what they have at WDW now................

"Lego" Castle, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, The Pooh Ride and I think another one

OMG!!!!!! How expensive where they? Kyle would loose his little mid for those! Especially space mountain!

PrincessKell- YAY for Georgia's 1st tooth!


PATTERN QUESTION RUFFLED UP DRESSI am making this for my girlfriend soon to e 3 yr old's bday. I am having a hard time picking the size since it doesn't say what child measurement = which size pattern to use. It just says x size cut this. Her chest is a 23 but she is chubby and wears a size 5 in a lot of things. So do I make a 5 width but a size 3 for length because she is the height of a normal 3 yr old. I am just not sure!!!!!!! HELP!!!!!

 

[eyor44]

Yes, they clearanced them out. I think some on here got some deals too! The ones I have seen close up shop didn't clearance everything at one time. It was a little here and there. I have never caught the fabric before there was only 4 bolts left and it was UGLY!

thanks, all the associate would say is "right now only material is on clearance". I'll keep watch.

My walmart has their fabric down to 50% right now, no sale on machines tho, they just got a new stock in last week there were NONE left now there is a pretty big stash of them on the shelves so I'm not sure, I want them to clearnace them so I can buy a serger

You are losing your's also. Isn't it sad?

 

[mickimousemama]

It IS soooo sad... although I did get some pretty good sales the other day about 35 yards of fabric, and 12 yards of trim for around $70

That Christmas/snowman was already marked down to .75 and THEN 50% off of that price, I bought 5 yards just because of the price LOL. I really had no "Need" for any of it but I bought it anyways just because I know it won't last long. I plan on going down again tonight and seeing what they have left still.

 

[eeyore3847]

super cute stuff!

Thank you!

Those all turned out so cute, I love how your little girl poses herself for pictures, so sweet how they just decide how they will look best

I know she is a poser I tell ya !

Oh how I miss AZ! Those outfits are great! So spring and summery.

It is already warm here I love it!

The last of my customs for our upcoming trip:

Dd#2's Minnie:

Dd #2's Tink:

Dd #1's Ariel (no, I did not make the Ariel)

Something quick I whipped up using the pre-shirred fabric from JoAnns:

Lastly, our countdown calendar . I wanted to redo it because the Micky heads aren't straight, but dh said it was fine and to leave it.

Thanks for looking,
Emily

I never have put candy in Georgia's basket. She doesn't do well with sugar (or candy) so I just don't do it. She gets lots of little dollar tree things. She always gets a Stuff bunny with the year on its foot. socks, tooth brush, hair stuff, a barbie (if its on sale) fun little Easter type notebooks and crayons or pens, Sometimes I will fill plastic eggs with jewelry or sugar free fruit snacks. bubbles, jump ropes, playing cards, Little things that are not costly so in a few weeks when all is forgotten about it can get tossed. hahaha

This year she might get a DS game and a few little Dollar tree things and her bunny.

I buy a lot of Dollar toys also. Jenna doesn't play with those things for very long and then I don't mind when they get broken. This year Wal-Mart has a good selection of $1 toys and things. I do get Jenna a couple of candy things, but not too much, because she really isn't a candy person. I still have a pumpkin full of Halloween candy that needs to be thrown away. She gets a new basket every year too and usually a little stuffed animal or a little doll. She loves little dolls.

Peach's tooth came out last night in her sleep.... She woke me up this morning before the alarm went off. Started off like this...

Peach: Mom..Mom.. hey mommy

ME: Yes silly girl, thats funny
Peach: MOM! don't call me that
ME: ok..
Peach: so in my dream I was watching the movie and I fell asleep with my pillows like this (like a chair) and I was sucking my thumb and THEN all of the sudden MY TOOTH CAME OUT!!! I woke up and I was lookin for it, and couldn't find it. Oh dear, Mom you know what happen in my dream??
ME: what happen?
Peach: I SWALLOWED IT!
ME: No... really, how funny.
Peach: MOM... LOOK LOOK! My tooth is GONE. Its totally GONE mom! and guess what?
ME: what Peachykins
Peach: I really did SWALLOW my tooth!

Isn't that just the cutest!? Then we had to have the discussion on where the tooth goes... try having that convo to a kid who didn't get we just can't um clean it up when we find it! hahaha

That angel of yours is too cute. She is so smart and has a great imagination. Her and Jenna would be a force to be reckoned with if they ever got together.

[jeniamt]

hey all.

i've been lurking for ages and love everything i see! you all have inspired me to get back to sewing (not that i did much before, though!)...i only wish i had started sewing again when my kids were a bit younger!

i should share that while i love you all for inspiring me, my DH does NOT appreciate you...because of this thread and all of your cute designs, i have started daydreaming--just a little bit!--about 1 more baby girl, just sew i can sew those itty bitty dresses!!!!!!!!

i'll post pictures once i download them, but for st. patrick's day i made my 2 girls the pillowcase style tops with the sparkly shamrock fabric from joann's that i've seen a few times on this thread. interestingly, my one DD did not want to wear it for a top, so she is wearing it for a skirt!

here is my question: does anyone have an easy online tutorial for a little boy's tie (not a bow tie)? my DS has said he wanted a tie from the shamrock fabric! for the record, i'm pretty sure that i have looked at every last link on the first page (i promise ), and i didn't see anything....

it seems pretty easy (i've actually already traced DH's tie onto the fabric, and my thought was to cut the shamrock fabric and another plain black piece and them sew them right sides together and them turn them inside out and iron....but i'm thinking there may be more to it that will make it look better.

anyone have suggestions?

thanks!

Not sure if anyone has already replied, I'm at least 15 pages behind. Anyway, here is a great pattern:

Good luck and welcome. Be sure to post your creations!
