Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes Part 5

[revrob]

Nothing to post really - except that I went to WalMart today, and they had Valentine fabric! Finally! Need to get working on it.

 

[dezimber]

we haven't had any trouble with taking food we did get slighty into trouble with our potato salad. She wanted to know how we were planning on it. So I said with a fork. Finally she let us through and then I said to my hubby I should have told her I was planning on smearing it on my sandwich. I have not been told I could not bring the girls sippy cups into the park I see those things everywhere. I even bring my own sipper bottle for hubby and I. I will let you know how bad it is after this next trip. While on the subject does anyone know if you are allowed to have a ice chest in the hotel room. My twins have to have lactose free milk and dland doesn't serve it that I have seen.

Potato salad sandwich, yum! I never had problems in the past bring stuff in but would love an update if things change. I would like to go next year if the have the So. CA 2 parks/days for $ of 1. I don't see why you couldn't have an ice chest in your room.

Yep thats the one I found too, and I also saw the ribbon one but this shirt is for my boy and I don't want to waste my time making something my husband would never let him leave the house in!!! Even though it would look really pretty on him So you are up late too TJ.... Again.... are the girlys up too?? That seems to be the ONLY time I get to myself!! I got some more pj pants cut out and a skirt for my cousins dd and sewed the buttons on that blue jumper dress for dd. I also made a drawstring duffle out of an old pair of jeans- I found the idea in a library book. I plan to add some U of M (that's Minnesota by the way) patches and give it to my SIL and make another one for her boyfriend. I ordered the shirts to go with the pj pants then I have to put on Iron ons on them. They are supposed to be here friday. Has anyone else used jiffyshirts.com before?? We used them for our tie dyes and really liked them!!
It got to almost 30 here today- We still have a good 9 inches of snow on the ground from 2 weeks ago, from that last storm. And dd has been sick today-tuesday. She had a flu shot last week I don't know if they are related but ds and I aren't sick so I don't think that's it. I hope this bug doesn't linger or spread that would not be good- We have a busy week ahead of us.

Lyddy was up until about 1AM. Uggh! Then, she woke up at 7AM this morning! I was hoping she would take a nap (yeah right). She turned 5 today (Wednesday) and even though I don't celebrate birthday's, Brian planned a Build a Bear party for her. Thankfully, she slept a bit on the way up to the party, so she was ok. And, that's probably why she is STILL up at midnight (the nap that is).

Then reality hit me- HELLO dd is not even a year and a half she does not care if her babies have matching outfits and I think if I started making outfits just so I could change their clothes and match them with dd my dh would really start to wonder about me

You should make yourself some coordinating shirts to go with their outfits. Maybe some ties for your husband too...

I forgot to mention that when I gave my niece her gingerbread outfit, she said "Aunt Heather, I didn't know you were an artist!!" She was absolutely thrilled with it and I was absolutely thrilled with her reaction!

I was hoping you would tell that story! It is so sweet!

Sawyer is sick again today. He keeps throwing up. Teresa can attest that he's pretty good at projectile vomiting (he did it at my mom's last night about 4 times before we could get him out of there).

Corey and I had a front row seat to the projectile vomiting as well! It was a perfect arch! Pretty cool looking actually. In a really sick gross kind of way! The poor little guy. I think he missed us all! He kept going around to each of us hugging us! He pressed his little cheak against Corey's while he was holding him. It was the sweetest thing! This was all before he covered himself, the floor and Heather in thowup!

I love seeing the kiddos all bundled up in their snow gear. So, which one had to go to the bathroom as soon as you put all that stuff on?

You knew that would make me laugh!

Okay, here is my cheapo Wal-Mart Cinderella dress CAB. Cinderella's face is a little smaller than I would've liked for the cool effect, but I totally cheated and used a pillowcase. I had to hand stitch around it because my current sewing machine has no zig zag stitch. I used $2 fabric and a pillowcase from Walmart. On the "bo-peep" bloomers I used a bunch of scraps of eyelet my mom had saved up over the years. No model because they are Christmas presents.

Here is the peasant top and bloomers I made Bitty Baby yesterday. I figure they will be generic enough to go under whatever else I make her.

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the Cinderella outfits!!!! That is fantastic! Love the Bitty Baby one too! Is that sparkly ricky rack?

****oo and all

We can't say ****oo? Maybe you should try boo boo!

I must be a big fan of cheapo Walmart CABs because I LOVE this outfit!! You did such a terrific job. I also love the doll-sized one and the cute little peasant top and bloomers!

Here are my snow pictures from this morning. A lot of it has melted already. Notice my extreme lack of Chrismas decor. You can't see it very well, but there is a little wooden Christmas tree on my front porch.
This is how far my mom's house is from my driveway , Teresa!:

You are a snot!

Awww, so cute!!!

ok, finished another set, now looking at it, I should have done the mickey on a red shirt. But I think he will have to wear a little jacket most days so do not think it matters. and since we are leaving in 8 days and I have one more of these shirts to do. ahhh.
oh question, do you think this would show up well on a brown tshirt to match the shorts more?

I think thsi is all I will get done today. hubby has his work xmas party I must go to. It should be interesting his boss got fired yesterday!
Lori

These are really cute! I love that Mickey fabric!
Fired the day before the party, that's bad!

.

Great pictures!!! You have so gorgeous kids!!! Thanks for sharing!

I have had mine I made for years. It is wonderful.

I also made one with flax seed and dried lavender and chamomile added. It smells good and the flax seed conforms well to achy shoulders or colicky tummys. You just have to microwave it in 30 second increments ...remove and shake to distribute the heat and repeat several times till you get it hot enough.

You can also use old beans or other legumes. I have used those for big body parts like lower backs or knees. They stay hot for a while.

You CAN just use an old tube sock and dump in whatever (rice, flax seeds, beans) and sew the top or even knot it in a pinch.

Now I want to make some too!

I've done the tube sock with rice version!

I finished Lydia's Build a Bear dress today. Woo hoo!! I took some pictures, but I can't find the card reader for Corey's camera, and am too tired to go look much! I think it turned out pretty cute. There are a few things I still want to fix, but she was able to wear it today to her party. Heather got some cute pictures of her in it at the party. Corey took his camera, but he basically took video with it. Lydia was so happy that the employee working there told her how much she loved the dress.

I'll post some pictures of it in the morning. It's pretty slow on here tonight anyway, so by the time anyone reads this, maybe I'll allready have them posted!

I'm off to bed, I'm pooped!

LOVE the Cinderella dress. I'm putting it on my "I hope I have time in my life to try this one" list. It's a very long list.

 

[tadamom]

Princessswfs - your pics are great! I love all of their clothes!!! Great job and thanks for sharing!

jham - I looooove that Cinderella dress! I am going to try and CAB that as well. Here's hoping I find some of those pillowcases!

HeatherSue - your house is gorgeous! Love all the snow!

robnkris - Great job on the shirts -- they look great! I bet your niece will get shirt envy pretty quick especially when they start getting some attention!

 

[Stephres]

Well, I think I am 20 pages behind, but I have been sewing like a mad woman. We are leaving for Disney tomorrow just for the weekend so I have been trying to finish everything before we leave. I am not going to make it. But I guess I will have fabric for next year! Next time I will definitely have to plan better. This is what I have been working on:

And for the doll lovers:

Now I have to go back and read and look at all the beautiful outfits that have been posted!

 

[HeatherSue]

I thought I'd replied to this last night, but I don't see my post. I got an error message, so it must not have went through.

I did post pics of them they are on page 1439 I just spent ten minutes looking for ya. Now I have to go pick up the spilt dish of pins the twins just dropped. Yikes welcome home missed ya.Sorry little one is still sick i hope he gets better soon.

Thank you so much for looking for the pics for me! I had scrolled through and must have missed that page.

Front of the twins

Thank you so much to Teresa Joy And Heather Sue for getting me the minnie dot fabric I could not have made these without you. The second set of bows on the straps are their hair bows I didn't want to lose them so I put them on there so when I wrap these they wont get lost. I hope you all like them I was inspired by all of you thanks for letting me share.

These turned out SOO cute!! I just love the ruffle butt! The gingerbread men are adorable too. Love the little hairbows! Great job!

Very cute jammies. Did you get Megan's hair cut so that it would look like Nellies? Megan's hair looks adorable.
Great job on both the kid and doll clothes.

Wait a minute right there missy!!!! Do you really think you can just get Megan's hair cut and then not mention it??? She looks absolutely adorable!!!! I love it!!!

The picture of Megan and Jacob on the couch, I love that look on Megan's face!!

The pajamas are too cute too! Have fun at Disney! "just for the weekend"! you little show off you!

and, good morning Heather! How's Sawyer?

 

[HeatherSue]

Well I am finally caught up on this thread after our vacation but definitely NOT the laundry.

Thanks for the mini TR!! These are my favorite outfits- love the bling carriages!! All of the outfits were great. Now, we need a picture of DH and DS with their matching Buzz shirts!

I love your house and your massive garages! I can't let DH see! The last time we moved it was because he had to have more garage space. I'm jealous of how close you are to your mom!

HeatherSue - your house is gorgeous! Love all the snow!

Thank you so much on the compliments on my house. I would just like to tell everyone again that my wonderfully talented husband built it HIMSELF!! My dad helped out a little and he also had another (former) friend help some. But, most of it he did himself. It took just under a year because he also has a full time job. The 2nd garage has approximately the same square footage as the house. He hopes to have his own body shop in there one day (he paints cars for a living). This is the 3rd house he's built for us. We plan to stay here for a while, seeing as how we're so close to our free babysitter!

I finished Lydia's Build a Bear dress today. Woo hoo!! I took some pictures, but I can't find the card reader for Corey's camera, and am too tired to go look much! I think it turned out pretty cute.

I'm fixin' to post some pics here in a minute....

I love the jammies!!! Hey, when did you cut Megan's hair?! It looks adorable and she matches her doll even better now. I love the look on her face when Jacob is reading to her. Priceless!

 

[HeatherSue]

Wait a minute right there missy!!!! Do you really think you can just get Megan's hair cut and then not mention it??? She looks absolutely adorable!!!! I love it!!!

The picture of Megan and Jacob on the couch, I love that look on Megan's face!!

and, good morning Heather! How's Sawyer?

Do we think alike or what? I swear I didn't read your post before I posted mine! Sawyer seems to be feeling a lot better this morning. He has had a few bouts of diarrhea, but otherwise seems OK. We've been singing the diarrhea song all morning. If anyone here doesn't know the diarrhea song, I'd be happy to share.

On another note- LYDIA IS FIVE YEARS OLD!!!!

The girls all had a great time at the Build A Bear party yesterday!! Tessa can't stop talking about it. Here are some pictures.
This is all the kids at the party (our nieces [our brother's kids]- Casey and Courtney, Tessa in front, cousin Jessa behind her, cousin Erin in red in the back, Lydia in front of Erin, Arminda in red, and cousin Kelly next to her)

I just can't wait to go again! We had a blast even though some of the family backed out. DB and DSIL did not go. These are the family members that said the custom JoJo shoes I got for my niece's B-day a few months ago were "hideous" that everyone here seemed to like. Any-hoo the trip was fun and we all had a good time. I did wind up making the other Finding Nemo tops for everyone. Here are some pics from our Epcot day. We got loads of compliments at the park. DF says he wants me to make matching custom tops for all of us for EACH day next time we go I guess I better get started since I am the world's slowest sewer

PS any ideas for matching custom tops for "grown ups" with a Pirate and Princess party theme? DH wants to have matching tops for the P&P Party next month

 

[HeatherSue]

Oh my gosh, you guys are too cute!!! I love this idea! I don't think, okay I KNOW my DH would not go for it. But, it would be great if he did!

 

[UtahMama]

If looks could kill!

Fabulousness as always!

I'm itchin' to get some doll patterns now (simple ones).

Be sure and say goodbye before you leave! We'll miss you!

 

[Jajone]

A shameless post of a little something I threw together for my little one
and a snow picture. We're in Green Bay, WI and this is the day after a storm a couple weeks ago.

Just for Teresajoy because she is always looking for my TMNT in the background

Yes, Heather, please do share! I'm glad my little Soybean is doing better!

GREAT outfits!!! I love the pictures!!!

I have to ask though, am I the only one that gets totally confused by the D(whatever letter) abbreviations that are not dh, ds, dd??? For instance, I was reading this post and read DF as dear fiance, then, I got to the part about your DH, and had to go back and decipher! So, I've now figured out that DF is Dear father in your post, right? You made me laugh this morning (at myself!) so thanks!

HEHEHE!!! You know, I WAS looking for the turtle in those pictures too! Too funny, you were reading my mind!

Great pictures by the way! That is a cute little outfit you whipped up! Love the fun in the snow pictures!

 

[teresajoy]

Here are the pictures I got of Lydia's Build A Bear dress I whipped up for her the other day. (Love Yah T!) These are the greatest pictures, Heather's turned out better! But, anywho, here they are...
Doing the Jojo pose:

Riding The Carousel (for FREE!!!):

After she got home, I thought I should take some pictures of the dress.
Of course, by this time it was wet and wrinkled! But, I am not apologizing! So there!
She had just brushed her teeth, so the front is quite wet!

_______________________________

The back, it is sort of ruffled (layered actually), but I need to make the ruffles stand out more. The Walmart bags kept falling out.
And, she is holding the bear and outfit that she got (Thanks Aunt Heather!) She wanted to make sure everyone on here saw the wings!

__________________________________________
She was VERY happy with her present from Aunt Heather!

These were taken with Corey's camera, and I don't know why they are all so orange.
Best friends, Lydia and Tessa:

THANK YOU HEATHER!!! These pictures are great!!!!!! My baby looks much too old though!

Very cute jammies. Did you get Megan's hair cut so that it would look like Nellies? Megan's hair looks adorable.
Great job on both the kid and doll clothes.

Thank you! Actually, she wanted it cut but it does look like Nellie's doesn't it? She asked the hairdresser to cut it as short as Snow White's.

Wait a minute right there missy!!!! Do you really think you can just get Megan's hair cut and then not mention it??? She looks absolutely adorable!!!! I love it!!!

The picture of Megan and Jacob on the couch, I love that look on Megan's face!!

The pajamas are too cute too! Have fun at Disney! "just for the weekend"! you little show off you!

Sorry! See above, she wanted it cut like Snow White's. My husband is distraught and says I shouldn't let a 5 year old make decisions about her own hair. Since it will be easier to brush through, I thought the 5 year old made an excellent decision! She is actually listening intently but it does kind of look like she's giving him the stink eye, LOL!

Sorry, I didn't mean to show off. This weekend jaunt replaces our 5 day planned trip in January. We have to go now before we lose our points. I wish I had more time for customs (I especially wanted to do a Cinderella jumper) but we will have fun.

I'm fixin' to post some pics here in a minute....


I love the jammies!!! Hey, when did you cut Megan's hair?! It looks adorable and she matches her doll even better now. I love the look on her face when Jacob is reading to her. Priceless!

First of all, my husband has made it his mission to eradicate "fixin'" from my vocabulary. It only slips out when I've been drinking and here you are using it! That means I will blame any future slips on you!

Isn't her hair cute? I think she looks like a little lady now.

Do we think alike or what? I swear I didn't read your post before I posted mine! Sawyer seems to be feeling a lot better this morning. He has had a few bouts of diarrhea, but otherwise seems OK.

I do not know of this song.

Happy birthday Lydia! The cake, the dress, the party all look wonderful and so fun!

What a cute husband you have! Mine will wear a mickey head shirt with a little prodding and that's it. You'd better get sewing!

If looks could kill!

Fabulousness as always!

I'm itchin' to get some doll patterns now (simple ones).

Be sure and say goodbye before you leave! We'll miss you!

Thanks! All the doll patterns I have done are super simple, so you should try! Of course I will say good-bye. I have about an hour before Megan's Christmas party and am trying to decide if I should start one more sewing project or just pack everything up.

So cute! People, stop posting cute things so I can catch up! Just kidding!

I love there matching pj's!
