Dance Props

I have had to take a break from blogging for a while because I had to have surgery to fix my deviated septum. This will basically help me breathe better! I have posts I've been wanting to write about but it's been pretty crazy lately!

With dance competitions coming up it is a crazy time at the studio! We have been trying to get all of our dances ready and also all of the props built! One project I have been working on (prior to my surgery) is two platforms with stairs behind them. Here are some of the photos of the props being built! We still need to add a glittery top coat to make them sparkle on stage!

My 2011 in Review

2011 was definitely a great year and I hope that 2012 is just as fun!  It was also a busy and creative year.  Here are just some of the crafts I made in 2011!

Hair Bows
In 2011, I began selling hair bows at my dance studio.  Here are just some of the many that I created.

I have created a mini bunting to hang up for new years and available for download!

Vegas, baby!

This is one of my favorite gifts I gave this year! It's been so hard keeping it a surprise!  It's part of a trip to Las Vegas!

It is a trifold card that said "What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas, Cause we're going to Vegas, baby!"  I loved all the glittered letters and Las Vegas stickers I found at Michael's and Hobby Lobby.

Here is the front:

Pretty Packages

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!  I sure did!  It's so nice to be able to relax and spend time with my friends and family!  Also, I'm off work (both jobs) for a week so I get to catch up on my rest!

I'm a proud new owner of a DSLR camera and I had to test it out with my Christmas tree!  I love how this photo turned out.
