contemplation

I have gone over and over in my mind for months, maybe even years, about having a blog that featured anything but pictures of my family. I didn't want to post with wrong motives. I like to look at other's blogs and observe their creativity and would absolutely hate it if one of my dear friends didn't post every little thing 'cause I would miss way too much of her life.
So I finally decided to post some things that I have been up to and jump into the blogging world.

here goes::

I love to create things I need. I call myself a functional sewer. I am not a huge fan of patterns, I usually just make it and then use it.
I absolutely LOVE colorful things {paper, fabric, pens, ribbon, pictures, the list goes on}, maybe that's why I majored in Graphic Design and had a ton of fun!

My plan:: Share my makings, my thoughts and some everyday life.
{enjoy}

my first post...a little GREENER


one of my dear friends laura {who has recently moved away, boo hoo!} is a super green girl. her second child was even born on Earth Day, I mean, anyhow she has inspired me to go a little greener.
so I did.

I have wanted to do the {cloth napkin} route but they are just so darn big...with little kids they definitely make MORE of a mess...so I ditched that a few years ago.

well, we're back to them because I had a little idea to make them {littler}

first I cut each napkin in 1/4
i surged the endges
then turned them and bada bing!
4x the napkins

we wash them every week since I made so many {4x to be exact} they even last our family of 5

they have worked out beautifully!
