<span style="background-color: white;">One thing that I remember as a child was going to drive-in movies with my brother and parents. It was always so much fun. The night air, popcorn, candy, and watching a great movie outside with the family I love so much!!!</span></div>

I decided to attempt my own movie night! What actually got me on the outdoor movie kick was seeing all the fun movie nights that I've found on <a href="http://pinterest.com/">Pinterest</a>, I am officially addicted and you can follow me <a href="http://pinterest.com/pinterestfavs/">HERE</a>. </div>

First, I used several of the left over decorations from my daughter's <a href="http://seesewandseedlings.blogspot.com/2012/04/carnival-birthday-party.html">Carnival Birthday Party</a>. Next, I made our very own "Now Showing Sign". This was super easy... <br />
<br />
I purchased a frame from Hobby Lobby (used a 40% coupon) so it cost me just a tad over $5.00, used a piece of scrapbook paper I had in my stash for the inside of the frame, cut out "Now Showing" (in black vinyl) with my <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/">Silhouette</a> placed it on the glass and used a dry erase marker to write the name of the movie we watched... The Sandlot (one of my favorites from my childhood!). I love that we can use it over and over.<br />

While on my hunt to recreate the perfect summer movie night I ran across a new product... <a href="http://www.target.com/p/3m-mp225-mobile-projector-white/-/A-13782378">The 3M Pocket Projector</a> at <a href="http://www.target.com/">Target</a> and had to have it. Let me just say this projector is awesome! It hooks up to the iPhone or iPad (we used the iPad) and projects the movies. All I could imagine was the fun my daughter, neices, and nephews would have (while creating great memories for them).<br />
<br />
So, I decided to show you today how to set up everything for your very own backyard movie night! I don't know about you but I am not very tech savvy and thankfully with this, I didn't need to be.<br />
<br />
Let me introduce you to the 3M Pocket Projector!!!<br />

For the mount, we used a camera tripod and it worked perfectly. <br />

This point is where the sound comes in and believe me you definitely need good sound outside. On our 1st attempt we used some small speakers. (The machine has a built in speaker but for outside it wasn't enough).... We could barely hear anything, so we decided to try something else - an amplifier. It worked PERFECT!</div>

However, we had to find an adapter to fit as the input was larger than the standard 3.5mm. This is what the adapter looks like.</div>

My mom is a <a href="http://tenawoodphotography.zenfolio.com/">Photographer</a> so we used one of her backdrops. We actually just flipped it to the back white side and used that. But there are a ton of tutorials out there of how to make your own movie screen...

This is another present for my best friend's baby. She chose pink, black and white for Brynn's nursery. I found an unfinished wood plaque at Hobby Lobby for $2.99 so I painted the sides pink... Then mod podged some white scrapbook paper on to the top. At that point I used my glue gun to glue the black and white houndstooth ribbon on. I also used the glue gun for the B (which was also unfinished but I painted the same pink as the sides). </div>

I love the upholstery nail head trim so I nailed 4 of those in the corners as well. I love it!! And am sure that she will too. This project was SO quick and easy... It took maybe 25 minutes.</div>

My best friend just recently had a baby... and of course she wanted something with her sweet baby's name on it. My initial intention was to embroider her name on several washcloths but when my embroidery machine barely made it thru the first one, I decided to move on to plan B. (I haven't completely gotten the whole embroidery machine thing down to a science yet..lol) </div>

As I mentioned in another of my posts my friend Andrea also has a blog <a href="http://buttonsbowtiesandbubbles.blogspot.com/2012/03/initial-towel.html">Buttons Bowties and Bubbles</a> and she made some <a href="http://buttonsbowtiesandbubbles.blogspot.com/2012/03/initial-towel.html">Cute Towels</a>. So, I decided I needed to use the same method on these since I was having issues. I think they turned out adorable. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Basically, I used my Silhouette and cut out two coordinating fabrics. I also used <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/fabric.aspx">Silhouette's Fabric Interfacing</a> which I would say is a definite must for this project and ironed on the fabric to the washcloths. Then used my sewing machine and did a zigzag stitch around all of the edges. </div>

We recently had a baby shower for one of my co-workers. She is an adorable and sweet person, so I wanted to do something extra special for her. I saw an idea from <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/857145/numbered-baby-bodysuits">Martha Stewart</a> and decided to make my own version. <br />
<br />
First, I purchased the onsies sizes.... 3 - 0 to 3 months 3 - 3to 6 months, 3 -6 to 9 months, and 3 - 12 months. Next, I used my <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/">Silhouette</a>. I ironed on <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/fabric.aspx">their fabric interfacing</a> and letting my silhouette cut out the circles (I used 3 1/2 inch circles). Once they were cut out, I ironed them on to the onsies. (For this project I only used 2 different fabrics). <br />
<br />

<br />
Then, I cut out all the months of the year with <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/heatTransfer.aspx">Silouette's Smooth Heat Transfer</a>. I used two different colors for this as well. Ironed them on and rolled them up. That was it! Honestly, the part that always takes the longest for me is choosing the font! I have to look at each one to see what looks the best and also if it is appropriate for the occasion. <br />

I purchased the suitcase thru <a href="http://shopsweetlulu.com/category/Paper-Suitcases/c72">Shop Sweet Lulu.</a> I really wanted the Pink Polka Dot set but they only had the tiny size in stock at the time of my purchase. (I found the suitcases on <a href="http://pinterest.com/">Pinterest</a> , I am addicted!!) The one I purchased comes in a set of 3 but they go down in size... I plan on using the other two for another friend that just had a sweet baby girl :) Let me tell you also, I didn't know what I was going to make until the Monday before the shower. I purchased on that Monday, with priority shipping and received the set on that Thursday! Needless to say, they have super fast shipping!<br />
<br />
I love personalized gifts so I decided to put the baby's name on the suitcase as well. <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">One day while browsing at Michael's Craft Store, I ran across these unfinished wooden guitar frames!! When I saw them I knew exactly who I needed to make them for... my daughter's cousins... Chamber and Chilton. Their mom and dad have several guitars hanging in their house and both of the boys also had their newborn pics taken with some of their dad's guitars. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So, first thing was to get Andrea to send me pics of their play room so I could get the right colors. (I should mention that Andrea also has a blog... <a href="http://buttonsbowtiesandbubbles.blogspot.com/">Buttons Bowties and Bubbles</a> with some super cute ideas, so stop over and check it out :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This is what they looked like before I painted them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I decided that I wanted to go with orange as the base color so I painted the entire frame </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlAnVt5BCj4op-TZwF8WXtIGAmlq92QnlRUznI6Nz4Lqj29fWusRLwr77GZ9if5EbN4B7bmZjDKWPa6T7Y9bilgb31B0FWhUNF3ArS-0eeUjNnbM5RppMxDljZQB62rMP2-vuUpNmp2Bg/s1600/guitar1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlAnVt5BCj4op-TZwF8WXtIGAmlq92QnlRUznI6Nz4Lqj29fWusRLwr77GZ9if5EbN4B7bmZjDKWPa6T7Y9bilgb31B0FWhUNF3ArS-0eeUjNnbM5RppMxDljZQB62rMP2-vuUpNmp2Bg/s400/guitar1.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Then taped it off with painters tape and used the same instructions for the perfectly straight lines as I used in my <a href="http://seesewandseedlings.blogspot.com/2012/03/picture-frame-tutorial.html">Picture Frame Tutorial</a>. I chose white for the outsides, then blue, then green... I will mention this wasn't a "quick" project. Since I had to let each color completely dry before I put the painters tape on for the stripes.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This is what it looked like after the outside stripes were complete.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglozREU18cq2Kh7oOapJoSco-XDZxfGHB-m1xT81NKGl3tyluUbymKboxMRERj2Zj8nAa-HUDjL3VtXh7BDWKXLW12kw7J-lsY6tcB-MP9Q6pIhmmyikeSWZ45zIIa_7iLVnBm6UiOhKo/s1600/guitar3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglozREU18cq2Kh7oOapJoSco-XDZxfGHB-m1xT81NKGl3tyluUbymKboxMRERj2Zj8nAa-HUDjL3VtXh7BDWKXLW12kw7J-lsY6tcB-MP9Q6pIhmmyikeSWZ45zIIa_7iLVnBm6UiOhKo/s400/guitar3.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">At this point I did another white stripe down the middle, but didnt paint the sides (so they are still orange).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv_7dt-JLvEC0KhBBNNpK9lRSibYXdqG8i8uoLHsOb_G-t0Hzh8QvIWNJZwv6tI2RL_RbmTM8g_VOWa1ufB5jl1nWBDU4bzKyDK7ulS8O8AOzjEckEPpdF5Amm6NwUZBjXiQASiC_2cZ0/s1600/guitar4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv_7dt-JLvEC0KhBBNNpK9lRSibYXdqG8i8uoLHsOb_G-t0Hzh8QvIWNJZwv6tI2RL_RbmTM8g_VOWa1ufB5jl1nWBDU4bzKyDK7ulS8O8AOzjEckEPpdF5Amm6NwUZBjXiQASiC_2cZ0/s400/guitar4.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div>I still thought it needed something so I pulled out some of my nail head upholstery trim and nailed those into the top for a much needed "real guitar look".<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I think that part turned out super cute!

<br />
Last year for my daughter's birthday, I decided I wanted to do the "Carnival Theme".. So, after lots of planning it was finally time to put all of the ideas together. And let me tell you, it was such a fun time!! At the same time, after it was over I was exhausted. So much so that, this year I decided I would just take her somewhere super fun and have a small "family" party. <br />
<br />
I will say though that everyone had a blast! There are lots of pictures so be prepared.<br />
<br />
For the tables I purchased table clothes, runners, and chair ties from <a href="http://www.tableclothsfactory.com/">Table Cloths Factory.</a> They have a wonderful selection and have most any color you would want. Their prices can't be beat.... and believe me I looked! So, I highly recommend them!<br />
<br />
I also purchased bubble gum machines from the <a href="http://www.dollartree.com/home.jsp">Dollar Tree.</a> There is one very close to me so I stopped by there often as I was preparing, since everything in the store is a dollar. I felt like I hit the jackpot when I found these!! And bought all that they had since we were having about 20 kids. I also lucked up on the big clown bow ties and huge sunglasses there too!<br />

My daughter LOVES animals so I thought getting a petting zoo would be a great birthday surprise for her. She loved it as much as I knew she would. Honestly, that was the only thing most of the kids there were concerned with.... They all loved the animals and the pony rides. This petting zoo was awesome. The came with all the animals, had little fences that they set up and provided the food so the kids could feed the animals! Looking back I could have easily omitted the games. </div>

</div>I have had several requests for a post on my Gallery Wall Grouping from the <a href="http://seesewandseedlings.blogspot.com/2012/04/diy-pallet-canvas.html">DIY Pallet Canvas</a> post.... It's great to find out that so many people love it as much as I do :)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div>I purchased all of the unfinshed wood whimsical frames from <a href="http://cutitoutalready.com/">Cut It out Already Frames</a> and I have to say they have amazing customer service. I do not live close to the store so they had to ship the frames to me. Anytime that I called to check on the order I was actually able to speak with a live person, not just a recording. They have so many frames to choose from. Below are the ones that I chose.<br />

This week we are celebrating my sweet girl's 5th birthday!! I feel totally and completely blessed to have her as my daughter. She has changed my life in every way possible for the better and I am so thankful to be the person she calls "Mama". <br />
Hope that you all have a wonderful day!!<br />

Recently, in the past few months I've joined the wonderful world of <a href="http://pinterest.com/pinterestfavs/">Pinterest</a> and you can follow me <a href="http://pinterest.com/pinterestfavs/">HERE</a>..... Needless to say, I have found way too many things that I want to make! I saw this <a href="http://www.u-createcrafts.com/2012/03/diy-mini-pallet-decor.html">DIY Mini Pallet</a> tutorial from <a href="http://www.u-createcrafts.com/">U Create Crafts</a>, which just so happens to be a blog that I check out often. I also fell in love with <a href="http://www.cornerhouseblog.com/2011/08/you-are-loved-sign.html">this</a> from <a href="http://www.cornerhouseblog.com/2011/08/you-are-loved-sign.html">Corner House Blog</a> but my house is way to small for something that size! </div>
<br />
Anyway, one day while browsing at <a href="http://michaels.com/">Michaels Craft,</a> I ran across some Balsa Wood and it hit me! I could use this for a smaller pallet project because it is SO thin! Kari at U Create Crafts used jumbo popsicle sticks for her project (which is genius) but I wanted something a little bit bigger and didn't want to cut a ton of them. So, I picked this up... It was $1.79 for a 36 inch piece. <br />
<br />
I already had an 11x14 canvas so this is the size I chose to use. I ended up using 1 and a half pieces of the Balsa Wood. <br />

See how thin it is!!! (Fun Fact: My dad actually informed me that a lot of people use this to build model airplanes....) <br />

At this point, I put the wood up to the canvas and guesstimated where it needed to be cut. I cut it with sissors and then broke the piece in half, to give it the "pallet" look. <br />

I did this until I had enough to cover the canvas... Then painted all of them with white acrylic paint (not as thick as I normally would, since I wanted a "worn" look). At that point, I used my trusty glue gun and glued all of them in place. Then used the same stencil technique as I used in my <a href="http://seesewandseedlings.blogspot.com/2012/03/quote-board-diy.html">DIY Quote Board</a> by cutting it out with my <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/">Silhouette</a>. The colors I chose were gray and pink since I wanted to put it on my living room wall with pictures of my sweet girl. <br />

I love it!!! And think it looks great with the pictures (which my mom at <a href="http://tenawoodphotography.zenfolio.com/">Tena Wood Photography</a> took). The turquoise headband my daughter has on is from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/61282521/mandy-boutique-head-band-for-girls-and">Miss Ruby Sue.</a> The whimsical frames are from <a href="http://cutitoutalready.com/">Cut It Out Already Frames</a> and the ones that aren't framed are from <a href="http://www.iprintcanvas.com/Mounting.html">I Print Canvas</a> and are mounted on the 3/16 Gator Board. <br />
<br />
Hope you enjoy this as much as I love looking at it!! :)<br />

I have had this one place in my living room that really needed something, but everything I purchased didn't look great. So, I decided to make something. This is one of my most favorite quotes, it helps me remember not to take the everyday grind of life too seriously. I need to look at it everyday! And what better place than in my living room?!<br />
<br />
I purchased 2 12x24 unfinished wood boards at Hobby Lobby. I painted them white, then distressed them with dark gray acrylic paint.... <br />

Since Easter is just right around the corner, I decided it was time to make my daughter's Easter bucket. My sister-in-law and I purchased the buckets several weeks ago but I just haven't had a chance until this weekend to actually work on it. <br />
<br />
We purchased the buckets at Hobby Lobby in the Spring section, they have just about any color you would want! Then, I ordered some <a href="http://www.craftvinyl.com/page64">Polka Dot Vinyl</a> and cut out the designs on my <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/">Silhouette</a>. Once the vinyl was on the bucket I tied some ribbon and tulle on the sides. <br />
<br />
This project was super easy! I love the finished product!!<br />
<br />
I'm linking up to these fabulous parties...<br />

<br />
I happen to love pictures, as a matter of fact, I am constantly thinking of ideas for my daughter's next pictures. Actually, I have been thinking of what to do for her spring pictures since before Christmas... sad I know, but it's who I am. My mother happens to be a <a href="http://tenawoodphotography.zenfolio.com/">photographer</a> which works out great for me.<br />
<br />
Since I love pictures so much, you know I love frames too. So, today I am going to show you how to embellish a unfinished wood frame, which will end up looking like this.... and be prepared for lots of pictures!<br />

First, I went to Hobby Lobby and purchased a 5x7 unfinished wood frame this cost me $3.99.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I wondered for years how to get perfectly straight lines when painting stripes and finally this year found out! Actually, it is pretty simple.... put the painters tape on the frame, then take the same paint (in my case, I used the white acrylic paint). Go over the tape where you are wanting to paint the different color, this seals the tape so it shouldn't bleed, but if it does it will be the white (genious!! and I would have never thought of that myself by the way).</div>

I purchased a craft Miter Saw kit from Joann's which was perfect for this project, it wasn't a bad price $14.99. I have used this thing so much it is well worth the price. I wanted some color to the frame so I cut 45 degree angles on a piece of craft wood (you can purchase at probably any craft store). I have purchased the craft wood at both Hobby Lobby and Joann's for about $.79. Once it was cut I painted it the turquoise color.</div>

My sweet friend is having a precious baby girl. We live far from one another, actually far is an understatement..... she is on the total opposite end of the country. So, it's sad to me that I don't get to be there with her during this point in her life. I am in the process of making up a box of things to ship out to her. <br />
<br />
She mentioned something about clothes dividers for the baby's clothing. I was at Joann's and ran across these cute tiny little hangers in the unfinished wood section of the store. They were a dollar a piece and since I will buy practically anything if it is "only a dollar". I picked them up. <br />

She is doing a Barbie themed nursery, so they had to be girly! I love pretty much anything really girly especially for babies or little girls. I painted them pink, cut out some scrapbook paper and used mod podge to glue it on... Then, tied a pretty pink bow.</div>
