Bassinet Cover

Yesterday my Step Mom brought over this bassinet for us to use when the baby gets here on Thursday. As it sat in my living room I searched the web for directions on how to make a cover or at least see if I could buy a skirt and bumper for it.
No such luck =(
With the bassinet I had with my other girls I had a pottery barn bumper and skirt but for some reason is has gone missing.So I went to my basement with a pink sheet and some elastic and this is what I came up with =)
All and all I love it. I covered the pad with a lime green twin size flannel sheet we had. I just put the pad in the end of it and wrapped it up. It added more padding and looks super cute. Instead of making a bumper I just made the skirt also go inside and under the pad.

Ta Da! Here it is!

Knee high socks tutorial

I stumbled across this awesome tutorial and I thought to myself "Self you need to make these!" If you are like me you probably have a lot of those thick sweater tights. My mother bought us TONS of them and my kids never wore them . I'm not sure why but I don't like to put tights on my kids, and you never see cute knee high socks for little girls so this is perfect. Ava LOVES wearing them and she is always showing them off to her friends. If you have any questions when trying to make these please just ask and I will be more than happy to help.
Good luck and happy sock making!
