Sienna's Birthday - Banner

I made this Happy Birthday Banner for Sienna's party. I can use it now for each family birthday celebration and it looks really original and fun.

It was really simple to make. Here are some quick instructions:

1. picked out some fun fabrics and cut them into a rectangle shape

2. traced the letters on to heat & bond no sew paper and cut them out

3. Iron letters to contrast fabric and cut them out and iron to cut out rectangles

4. Sew ribbon to edge

It was a windy day and it got blown around alot but it still looked pretty!

Sienna's 1st Birthday Party - Favors

Sienna turns 1 tomorrow - time really does fly! We had a birthday party for her on Saturday and I made favors for her little friends to take home. Cupcake clips for the girls and rock guitar bibs for the boys!

Fabric Jewelry Class

I took really bad photos but I had to show you some of the little creations that were created at my fabric jewelry class over the weekend!

Vintage Sienna

Jet Rag is this vintage store on La Brea in West Hollywood and has a dollar sale every Sunday. You can find the post amazing items. My friend Lisa found Sienna this cute little dress and she wore it recently when it was very hot outside!
We are in the middle of preparing for Sienna's first birthday party on Saturday and I've made lots of lovely things and will be blogging about them in the coming days!

I'm part of this incredible community called Mosaic and I got to ago away over labor day weekend to their Artists weekend away. I was helping out with some fashion projects. I did an hour long workshop on alternative t-shirt design. Everyone at the weekend got a t-shirt and decided to get everyone to do some custom work using dye, stitch and embellishment. I was amazed at how well they shirts turned out.

We also got to work on our own projects and I made an outfit from recycled clothes and inspired by the word "Belong".

Silverlake daytrip

My fellow creative mummy Kathlene and I decided we would do an Mummy friday outing and explore a different part of Los Angeles each Friday until Kathlene went back to work. This was a couple of months ago but I always meant to post some photos.

Here are a few shots from Silverlake - I love this area so artistic and unique. I hope to do some more creative exploring with my husband when we take a "Staycation" at the end of the month.
