new again

I've seen lots of blogs with tutorials on this, but I never imagined it would be this easy.

I've brought back the little shirts that Mia has grown out of by simply attatching some length of fabric to the bottom of her old shirts. I also attatched some sleeves since it should be cooling off soon... hopefully. I'm so excited with the possibilities!

I also attatched a little patch of fabric behind the buttons.

This one is my favorite...

cards, cards, and more cards

What do you do with all of the beautiful cards you get for birthdays, new babies, holidays, and all that good stuff? I throw them all in a box along with the rest of the stuff I can't part with. Like hospital bracelets from the babies, ticket stubs, umbilical cords (yes I kept them... gross, I know!), and other trinkets. Anyways...

I saw this somewhere (I can't remember where) and I thought this was such a good idea!

I punched holes in the corner of each card, and put them on a binder ring. (I don't know if that's what it's called, but you know what I mean.) I put all of Jackson's on one and Mia's on another. I think they'll enjoy looking through them when they're older. Now all of my cards are organized in my memory box.
