I'm Back!

Alright ladies, sorry for the absence, but I had to get myself in a better place. I will probably still take things slow and not post a whole lot for a little while, but that has not been stopping me from working on some projects.

My husband and "the boys" (his dad, brother, brother-in-law and adopted grandpa) went camping a few weeks ago. Now, just so you know, we have been married for 6 year and in that 6 years I have slept alone in the house 3 times, and never since we have had kids! So this night was going to be a long one, so I made it a productive one. I stayed up for many hours watching girl movies as the wind outside was so bad it freaked me out! Things were crashing all over and I didn't get much sleep. But here is what I worked on.

I saw this tutorial over at Make It and Love It, and just had to do it. The only difference that I did on this was I turned all of these "rompers" into shirts.

My son, who is growing like a weed, has all these incredibly cute one piece short sets, but is too long for them.

So I hacked off the bottom shorts part and hemmed it.

I then used an old knit shirt and added long sleeves to them.

Here is another example. I did the same thing, hacked off the bottom and added sleeves. He went from having 2 or 3 warm shirts to have 10 or 12! Didn't cost me a thing!
