IN THE BAG
(k) Book bags serve as party favors
(ruffles hold the flaps down). (l) Strawberry pincushion used as a tablecloth weight
cleverly keeps breezes at bay. (m) If you can fold paper, you can make this topiary. To l
earn how, click here (pdf) or at hellomynameisheather.com. (n) Heather
reads to daughter Charlotte, age 3. Velvet ribbon on clothing, topiary, and
stuffed animals, Midori.
ONE SCOOP OR TWO?
(o) For a feather in your crafting cap, try these
frou-frou feed cones. To make them, roll decorative cardstock into a cone
shape and trim with gimp and rickrack. Convert a cupcake holder into a
carrier.
SURPRISE!
Heather offers this bit of advice about sewing clothing for
kids: “Add playful, unexpected details. Kids love that.” (p) Just for fun, Heather added zingy slashes of bold orange fabric to an
otherwise pale tunic, worn by Abby, 6. (q) You can never have enough ruffles. (r) Band
of bright yellow livens up pant
legs. (s) A pocket in disguise, this frilly flower
looks like it’s only a decoration—until you put your hand in it.
TRUCKIN’
(t) After a day of reading and games, Heather packs up
the
trusty 1950s truck. (u) Kaitlyn, 7, and Charlotte, 3, are the freshest, most
colorful sprouts in the garden. Kaitlyn’s dress has no less than four layers
of ruffles in different colorways down the back. All hair decorations, Trash
Ties. Children’s shoes, Puddle Jumper Shoes.
