Here is the latest purse I made my mom. She LOVEs purses and black and white polka dots with red. I personally am a bit over it! :rotfl:

CUTE!!!!
 
No. No Def Leppard, but he did do a little Righteous Brothers (You've lost That Lovin' Feeling and Unchained Melody), Dionne Warwick (What the World Needs Now is Love, Sweet Love) and some ELVIS among other artists. I Loved the 40's era of the music- it was fantabulous!


Minnie2-We've been DVC members for 5 years now- and it is the BEST thing we've ever done with our money! We love it. It allows us to go to Florida 2-3 times a year and just relax. We never feel like we have to be all day everyday in the parks.
the 40's music would have been fun I love that kind of old stuff!

Glad to know that you love the dvc so much we just bought back in June and are so thrilled ad we haven't even used it yet! ::MinnieMo :mickeyjum
 
Karen this one is for you!! I just sent a picture of the purse I made my mom to my best friend who is coming to WDW with us and this is what she emailed me back:

Can you make it into a fanny pack because I am not using a purse when we go to the parks. :scared1: :scared1: :scared1:

Ok being the good friend I am and the fact I am so excited about her and ehr family coming with us I actually told her I would try:scared1: Any suggestions on how in the world i would do this???? I offered to make her a Mickey purse but she wants a fanny pack:laughing:

Someone wanted to make that lovely purse into a Fanny Pack???? Good Lord! :laughing:

Note: I am not insulting people who wear fanny packs. I agree that they are very convenient...just call me a slave to fashion (mind you I'm wearing shoes from Target right now!!!)
 

just a quick question. my computer was running slow yesterday so dh did a scan and a security warning came up saying that the proboards disboutiquers was a known phishing site. i have never seen that before and don't post any of my own info, but i was wondering if we should pm the wishtrippers address and stuff to anyone who is participating. i dont know much about phishing so please if i am overly neurotic just let me know. thanks

We let the families know that their address will be posted on a board that can be viewed by the public and suggest that they use an address other than their home address, such as a business, church, etc. That's why some have elected to use General Delivery. Shannon tried to use PM to share the address for the first MAW Big Give but it was hard for her to get everyone and it meant that there'd be less spontaneous pixie dust sent.

BTW - Phishing is often done via email trying to get the person to click on a link in the email. The email will claim to be from a bank, Paypal, credit card, etc. The email and links in it look legitimate but they are fakes set up to try to get information for credit cards, passwords, etc. Some phishers may post on public boards to add links to get people to their fake websites. It's always important for people to be cautious when following links on boards or email. I don't follow email links at all unless they are from someone I know well.

Big Give for MistyMouse/Dylan

Dallas is NOT a good model! He did want to keep the outfit though!

ETA:

About to send it out and does anyone have an idea as to what I should put for to whom? It has an address but no name? Should I just put Misty? or Dylan and her ID or something? I know the post office will not deliver an item with just an address. Any thoughts?

That is cute!

They are the Franzmann Family (first post in the thread shows this just a few lines above the address). You could address the package to the kids with that last name. I know not all families have the same last name for all members but I bet it would work even if it's not their legal last name. :)

I have this tutorial saved. It looks like it might work

Thanks! I obviously overlooked it somehow!!
 
OK, here are pics of my (mostly) clean craftin' area!

You'll have to excuse the mess o' wires - the outlets in this room are in very inconvenient places!
Now if I could just keep it this clean! It seems like whenever I make something, I make a huge old mess!

Looks awesome ...
Love it!
 
Anyone know where I can find a plain white short sleeve mock neck shirt for DS (3T) for a Mouseketeer costume?

I've searched online (both boy and girl!) for them and can only find long sleeve winter weight turtleneck shirts. Same thing with stores I've checked in person.

If anyone has one, I'd be happy to reimburse for shipping (etc ;) ) if we could get it before October 1st (giving some time before our trip on the 10th). Or let me know if you remember seeing one somewhere (store name etc).


Thanks!
 
BTW, shakin' you booty on the dance floor sans purse seems to be an ongoing problem. My girlfriend knits these cute little bags and loops the top edges over bangle bracelets so you just wear them on your wrist. They are cute and fun. I am currently working on my own design in fabric- of course the minute I saw them several ideas sprang into my head.. I'll post a picture of the one she knit for me later.

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Now Daniela's gonna have to make us all matching fanny packs:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

OOOH, we could have a Fanny-Pack-Along!!!!:lmao:

I cracky me up!
 
That outfit is so cute and your Megan is just adorable.

Thank you!

love the megan outfit and she is so beautiful...;)

Thanks! We love Bunnytown around here too.

I had to call Arminda over to the computer for this one!!!! You should have seen her face when we got to the Arminda part!!!! Love it!!!! Oh, I'd only have had my camera out!

Arminda was wondering if Jacob got his haircut.

And, his birthday was Wednesday? I missed that somewhere along the line!

I love the outfit Steph!!! It is adorable!!!

Where is Scrappy? I see his doggy bed, but what did you do with him???

1) I was laughing so hard at that picture: what is with that face? I thought he must have been thinking about her!

2) Jacob's grandmother decided to cut his hair out of his face when she was visiting last weekend. No, no one asked me first. I think the back isn't as curly because he just got out of the shower.

3) Yes, he is nine now. :sad1:

4) Thank you!

5) Scrappy was outside barking at a squirrel on the screen. I was debating taking a picture but decided against it (silly me!). Megan even told me to.

I love that skirt. I remember the last one. How do you attach the tulled to the skirt? I really wanted to add that to one of dd's dresses! And next time we will do the megan!

I ran some basting stitches (long stitches) along the top of the tulle and gathered, then sewed it to the bottom layer of the skirt. Then I sewed that to the top layer of the skirt and then the whole mess to the yoke. It was such a pain! I sandwich the tulle between two skirt layers because it is itchy. And it is very slippery so the basting stitches help with that too. HTH!


So cute: Dylan will love it! Maybe you need a bribe, er, I mean incentive to help Dallas be a more cooperative model. Not that I have any experience with that sort of thing. :rolleyes1

For those of you who have made the Carla C bowling shirt I have a ?
I have just finished printing all 117 pages and now I need more ink for my printer:goodvibes
Ds is measuring a size between a 3/4 and 5/6 (23 1/2) but in reg clothes he is a 7 should i make the 5/6 and just add a few inches to the length or just go to the 7 since that is what he normally wears? Does this shirt run really wide? I don't think he has been a 3/4 since he was 3!

When I did mine I did the size he measured (5/6) but added two inches to the length. I really could have stood to make it the next size up because the boys like their shirts roomy. If your son is tall I would def. add some length to it. I can measure the 5/6 across if you'd like.

Love the twirl on that circle skirt!

Thanks!

and HOW CUTE is Megan in her HM outfit??? She's growing up Steph. :confused3 I thought we put a ban on that kind of thing;)
...t.

Um, I know! I keep telling her that. DH just gave me the ultimatum: I am no longer allowed to pick her up under any circumstances. I am very sad about it because she is my baby but my back cannot take it! I told him I was going to dress up Scrappy and wheel him around the neighborhood in Megan's stroller instead! That will teach him!

Hi there, I think I finally found something that I can have my dd5 volunteer in. Love her to pieces, but like many children she does not really appreciate things. My idea is to have her and I, sew blankets or basic stuffed teddy bears and then take them to either a children's hospital or shelter. That being said, I know zero about sewing. My mom may have an old machine or I think I've heard of some type of "sewing" that is more like tape? I truly don't know! What do you guys think, any suggestions?

I second the fleece blanket idea. I made one with my son when he was four or five and he still uses it today. I cut the strips and then we tied them together.
 
Mac and I did one together and he's 9!!! Actually he helped my w/ Lily's too. We had a fun night watching movies and making blankets. The kids loved it, we gave lily the scraps so she felt like she was helping. I was not a fan of this style of blanket, but the kids LOVE them and get them out anytime we settle in for a movie. Lily likes to take hers if she is sleeping over at her grands too.

Ok, they've been done a lot, but they're just so cute I had to make one too.

Princess storybook skirt for dd4 (almost 5 :guilty: )

Mickey one for dd2.

I aksed her to twirl & I got this

Ok, so dd2's was a skirt & when I put it on her she immediately pulled up like a dress. No matter what I tried so kept pulling it up. So I added the ribbons so I could tie it on halter style. I figure I can take the ribbons off later & she can wear it as a skirt then.

what? it's weird to dress your dog up and wheel him around in his specially made dog carrige?

not that I do that...I just KNOW someone who does that...sometimes...

what?

*ahem*

;)


I know what you mean though about heavy kids! Sally will sometimes want to be picked up...for whatever reason...even though she's 9...but seriously, it's like the child has lead in her veins...and weights attached to her clothes...she is SO incredibly heavy I can't believe it. And she's not overweight at all either...she's just very solid and muscular...which really prevents a lot of carrying!:sad1:

If ya can't beat 'em join 'em!! Lily did just the opposite for a while, she would undo her jumper straps and push the top down so she was wearing a skirt-kind of.:rolleyes: So I started making her skirts. Thankfully she is wearing her twirl tops again...I heart them.

These are wonderful!


MISS CAMMIE YOU CRACKY ME UP:lmao: what?

Well guys, I am off to Orlando for the weekend. However dismal it may be w/ my entire right leg immobilized:sad2: I am hoping to rest up tonight and tomorrow and take off the knee brace on sunday and use my crutches (unless I can convince dh to wheel me around) at AK. Keeping my fingers crossed for at least one day at the parks. I am planning on having dinner at the poly tonight or tomorrow and catching the fireworks from the beach :wizard: See ya real soon!
Have a great weekend everyone!!!

OK everyone- here's what I have been working on the past few days.

By way of explanation- I teach the 7-8 year old kids at church. In our church when kids turn 8 they are baptized. So, I thought it might be nice to make one of those books for each child when they are Baptized so that can remember their Baptism. I took pictures of each page so you can see what the inside looks like. They are incomplete for now.- The kids will fill in with photos, their thoughts, talks from their Baptism etc. This book is for a girl. When I do the boys I think I'll do it in primary colors and not make it so foo-foo-y. Do you think this is something a boy would even want??? What about the girls? Is this age appropriate for them or is it too little girl or too big girl for them??

Just took a look at one page in particular.... I need to add something- looks too plain.

EDITED TO ADD: If you think this is not age appropriate- can you PLEASE make some suggestions as to what would be a better way to make it age appropriate? My youngest is 24- I think she would've loved it when she was 8- but time's change- ya know???
