isn't that a question that pertains to everything?
especially when it has to do with kids and their stuff.
it isn't always possible to hide it, so make the most if it.
this is a once oh so popular memory board that I picked up at the thrift store a while back.
it just happens to be a perfect spot for hair things.
easy to see.
easy to reach.
win win.

making the most of it
(please forgive my reconstructed picture...it was already cut in half before I thought to document it:)
So, you start with a basic girls tunic type shirt.
I cut the top just below the arm pits in a straight line all the way around.
Decide what fun fabric you want for the bottom of the dress
(this happens to be an old shirt.)
It is one simple straight stitch all the way around.
I did add a little flower on top as well.
The bottom of the shirt turned upside down makes a simple little skirt for spring!

pillow made pretty
SEW...what is a girl to do when it's late and there's to much to do?
If you are tired of looking at your plain old pillows like I am,
You find something interesting to sew onto the cover.
We have done this with doilies and flowers, but quilt pieces are a great embellishment as well!
SEW much better.
