Just wanted to share the sewn barrettes I mentioned on Monday. One pair for each girl in my daughter’s class (she’s star of the week). I was up a little late last night getting them done, but they turned out cute, don’t you think? The boys are going to have to be satisfied with store-bought pencils. Something tells me they won’t mind. I discovered the barrettes here via Noodleheads (thanks, Anna! Anna also just posted a very fun zippy wallet tutorial I’m thinking will make some fun Christmas gifts.)

And one more quick project. We put together this together for my dad, who will be visiting some cold places in Europe this winter. So we thought it woiuld come in handy. Found here via One Pretty Thing (have you used her new “search drawer” to look for projects? I think I’m addicted.)
