Wordless Wednesday: Another Day, Another Zoo

Just a Little Bit

Every once in a while, I get to have a little bit of pink and purple in my life...even if it is only until it needs to be given away as a gift.

I made these SUPER adorable pink and purple baby gifts for my cousin and his wife's new baby girl Meredith.

I hope they like pink and purple, because there was no way that I was passing up an opportunity to make something that wasn't blue:)

Picnic Plaid Decor

I have been wanting to change up my outdoor decorations for a few weeks....but life has been so busy, that I am just not getting around to it. Sadly, I just took down my spring wreaths last week and replaced them with some fun summery ones made out of an outdoor tablecloth.

*********

I picked up an oblong Picnic Plaid tablecloth at Walmart on clearance for $4. I learned from my bench redo that tableclothes hold a lot of potential for crafting. I figure the Picnic Plaid one would be big enough to make two wreaths. I was right...and then some.

I made two wreaths, two pillows with ties to keep them in place,

a new garden flag,
a Fun in the Sun sign {a summer version of this}, and I even had enough left over to make four placemats for the table on our back patio {which we still haven't used because it has been raining every afternoon}.

All of that from a $4 tablecloth!
Have you ever made anything fun out of a tablecloth?!?
