Baby Shower??

So I have been contiplating starting a craft buisness. So I am just going to go for it!! I know how many times I have had a baby shower and needed a GOOD gift, that doesn't cost me alot, and is something that they won't get a lot of. Therefore, I am going to make "Baby Shower Gift Baskets" Ranging from $10 to $50+, depending on the situation!! I just made my Mom's Boss' wife one that was from everyone at work. They collected money, and I knew I could Stretch it... they collected $50...and I made 5 Burp Rags (which turned out really cute if I do say so!!), a carseat cover (the kind that is $40-$50 at a Boutique), a bunch of bows, and a Diaper/Wipe Clutch. Anyways, it really got me thinking....SO if you are in need of a Basket, Let me know!! I am going to get a List of what you can get for the money!! I will post pictures, which I didn't take of the one I did!! oops!

Memory Books

So I came accross an Idea for a INEXPENSIVE alternitive to Chip Board Books.


I use old Children's Board Books...you can use ones that you have or buy them from a secondhand store.



What you do:


1. Cut the Book apart. Cut the Spine, and gently cut the pages apart.

2. I wiped the pages clean to give it a good surface to adhere to.


3. Pick out paper, and cut to the size of the book.4. Attatch the paper to the pages, I use a 3M Tape Gun...It sticks really well, and will not come apart. Make sure you use a very strong adhesive. (tip: I sanded the edges, to make the paper more cohesive, and to five it a textured look.)



5. Now you may do the pages now, or bind the book first. I prefer to do the pages first, then Bind them.


6. To bind the book back together, I used the Bind it All. But you can use ribbon, links, whatever you prefer.


Now use your imagination and Have Fun!!
