Well here you go:
Project #1: Print out 5 pictures to make month-by-month frame up-to-date - Completed.

Before
So I took them ALL out... I almost gave up, threw these away and started from scratch...
After... ta da!
AND for my lonely socks... I stick them in this cute box on top of my daughters jewelry box until it's buddy can be found. (PS - That is NOT my daughter in the picture... I've had that box 6 months and STILL haven't put in a picture... sheesh)
Completed.

Project #5: Make a tutu. Completed (actually I made 3)... tutorial here

Ribbon & Pearl Necklace
Baby Leggings - not posted yet, but completed

Now to decide what to do... oh the pressure! Any suggestions?
