A little while ago I decided that instead of printing pictures out and putting them in albums, I was going to make one photo book every 3-4 months and get that printed. Well, I've only done 2 books so far...
Project #2: Get at least another 2 books completed and ready to order - half completed.
* I LOVE LOVE LOVE Picaboo.com for ordering my books. Their software is so easy to use on your computer. My favorite part is how you can add a picture and it automatically updates the flow of the page, but you can also manually move and resize the pictures. The only problem is that they are a bit pricey... so I wait until sales and then I can order all the ones on my "bookshelf" at one time!
This one is kind of minor... but will have a HUGE impact on getting the girls dressed in the morning...
Project #3: Organize the sock drawers.
Now that I have 2 girls with 2 different size of tiny socks in the house, it gets confusing. I need a method! I think I'm going to write in permanent marker on the bottom of the socks the size so I know (a) which drawer they go in and (b) when they have been outgrown. Yup... that should do it!
Project #4: Embroidery! Completed, Here.
I have 2 birthdays and 2 babies coming this month!
Project #5: Make a tutu - completed!
Project #6: Make a fabric rosette - Completed, and also apron here.
Project #7-.... : I hope to knock off some more of my "To-Attempt" crafts!
Wish me luck!
I also find that it's hard to keep up with all the projects on my to-do list!

ReplyDeletethanks for following me. i'm looking forward to getting to know you better via blog. ;) good luck with your to dos! making tutus is so fun, addicting, and super easy. rolled rosettes, too! You can knock those off your list in one nap time. ;)
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog and am enjoying reading it. I'm very impressed that you are using the time your DH is away to complete your to-do list - and that your list also includes learning new crafty things! I do have a tip to share with you about tiny socks; having 3 little ones in different sizes forced me to find a simple method! I bought mesh lingerie bags with zipper tops for each child. I then used the bags as laundry bags for their socks; putting them in the bags as soon as they came off their feet. I washed and dried them in the bags (I even had a seperate bag for red and dark pink socks); that way you never have to sort them! As their feet grew I quit using the bags but their feet were enough different in size that I could keep them apart. Recently I have considered getting really large mesh bags to use again as their feet are once again similar in size; it really does simplify the laundry!
