Mickey Mouse Sugar Cookies

 Good morning ! The littlest grandsons birthday party was this weekend with a Mickey Mouse theme so I made some sugar cookies to match. I use the recipe from Mrs. Fields cookbook for my sugar cookies.
 I didn't have a # 1 cutter or a Mickey Mouse cutter , so I drew them on paper and placed over the dough and cut around them with a knife.
 I made alot of the double decker ones, using stars and circles on top of the scaloped squares.


 He is just adorable !
I made myself another stack of dishcloths ( I made 3 more than this , but my daughter took some home ) .. These work so well for doing dishes if you can crochet , make some ! To make these I use cotton yarn..( Lily sugar and cream. I get 2 dishcloths out of each ball, except the multi color  yarn, I get 3 dishcloths out of 2 balls.) You can get this yarn on sale at Michaels for 1.00 a piece when on sale.) . chain 30 with a size g crochet hook.. single crochet in 2nd chain from hook to end , chain 1 turn ..siungle crochet into each single crochet across.. repeat until desired length.. I did 26 rows.



Thanks as always for stopping by and leaving your nice comments! Have a great week !

Owls and Mickey Mouse

 Its Monday ! Another week just flew by ! I made this owl blanket and hat for a gift for a new baby .. I got the  pattern on Etsy and used the same colors they did in the pattern.. I did change the owl a little bit by crocheting the wings onto the body instead of sewing them on.
 It is so pretty ! The edging is just perfect for the blanket.

 My daughter in law asked for a Mickey Mouse set for her brothers baby , I bought a pattern but the directions just were not good.. so I looked on Pinterest and I had pinned a free pattern for a Mickey Mouse hat Mickey Mouse pattern and I made that one. I then made a diaper cover in red and crocheted "buttons" in yellow..I think it turned out really cute !
Anf finally.. this is what our house looks like at the moment. We decided to take down the wall in the foyer that seperates the living room .. to make the house more open. We also took down all the ceilings because they were popcorn ugly ceilings.. Once this is done the whole bottom  floor will have been remodeled.. There was a huge mirror on the wall and it was pretty scary Saturday morning when that came down !
We also decided to make the wall between the dining room and kitchen smaller so thats more open too..
What a mess we have on our hands.. but its not nearly as bad as when we had no kitchen for 3 months and I had to wash dishes in the basement utility sink ! Hopefully it won't take long to finish up and I am sure it will look so much better!
Hope you all have a wonderful week, Thanks for your visits and nice comments !!
