This mask that I am showing is the simplest design. 

If you want you can add any embellishments you want at this point.  

 I like to use two colors of felt and layer them.

You can either use elastic or ribbon for this next part.

Cut ribbon or elastic to desired length.

Measure in about a half an each near the corner of the eye (as shown below).

Sew one side of the ribbon or elastic.

Repeat on the other side.

And now your mask is complete.

It's Just Another Stylin' Sunday

Brody has been loving his toy bugs lately.

Baby Blankets

I was looking through some old posts on my blog and I came across this blanket I made for Brody before he was born.
I never thought it would turn into his favorite blanket.

Of course his blanket (or green as he calls it) doesn't look so nice now. Every single corner is ripped and has holes from him chewing on them, they are constantly wet. He thinks it's funny to try and give me a taste.

I want to know,  do you or your kids still have a baby blanket? I still have mine.

Blair Candy Review

A few weeks ago Blair Candy sent me some of my favorite candies from my childhood to review.
I'm sure many of you know about candy cigarettes. Oh how I loved them! Of course my mom hated them and only allowed me to have them if I promised not to pretend to smoke them.

The candy cigarettes were as good as I remembered them and mom, I didn't pretend to smoke them.
Candy cigarettes come in a box of 24 and only cost $5.
One of my favorite things about candy cigarettes is the packaging. I love the retro designs on each package.
Wouldn't they be a fun party favor?

Blair Candy also sent me a box of Zotz. We could not get enough of these at my house! 

If you haven't tried Zotz I recommend that you do and fast. Zotz aren't your typical hard candy, the center is filled with a fizzy sour surprise. They are manufactured in Italy and have been around since 1968. 

I love their slogan "where the fizz izz".

 

This review for Blair Candy was really fun! 

I will definitely order candy from them in the future.

Blair Candy provided me with the candy to review. All opinions are my own.

Cardigan Sweaters

1) 3/4 sleeve cardigan

2) graphic floral cardigan

What are your favorite cardigans?

It's Just Another Stylin' Sunday

Brody is a very picky eater, he doesn't even like bread. Last week at church when I asked him if he wanted to take the sacrament he told me "no bread, just pizza". He is such a silly boy.

A few months ago my husband came home with a few boxes full old National Geographic magazine.
They went back to 1916. We had fun going through all the articles and even more fun checking out all the ads. Below are a few of the ads I scanned (don't mind my horrible scanner).

 

The car ads were some of my favorites.
