This week I made a hairbow kite for the girls’ room! I saw the idea on Pinterest (of course).
If you want to make one too, just cut out a kite shape, hem the edges, attach a ribbon to the bottom, and clip on your bows! Easy and cute.

Our nursery is really coming together beautifully! It’s amazing to see how far it has come in just a week. Here’s a sneak peek of one wall. I decorated it with hoop art inspired by several pins on Pinterest.
I love how it looks! Can’t wait to show off the rest of the room soon!

Here’s an easy, last-minute Christmas gift idea for you to make! (You don’t even have to be “crafty”!)
Vanilla Sugar Scrub
Combine 1 cup white sugar, 1 cup brown sugar, and 1 tsp. vanilla extract in a bowl. Stir well. Add enough olive oil to give it the texture of wet sand. Place the sugar scrub in small containers. (I used clean, dry baby food jars.) Decorate the containers as desired! (I used scrap paper for the lids and made labels with directions.)
Include these directions with your gifts: Rub a small amount of sugar scrub into hands for sixty seconds, then rinse with warm water.
I gave these to some of my girlfriends, as well as to Vera’s Sunday School/AWANA teachers.
I love that it…
1) is easy to make
2) uses simple ingredients I have on hand
3) isn’t edible, but is consumable (no clutter!)
Are you still making any Christmas gifts or are you all finished? I made a lot of baked goods this year (and by a lot I mean 33+ dozen cookies)!
