Having kids has been a fantastic opportunity for me to be creative and try a broader range of crafts. Their parties are perhaps my absolute favorite things to craft for. For Lizzie's party, I made several heart garlands, a banner, a "1" centerpiece and mounted the 1 month-12 month pictures of Liz. (Check out yesterday's post to see pics!) But what I REALLY loved were her favors. I made.....
Ladybug bean bags~
Homemade ladybug shaped crayons~
and ladybug hair clips for the girls~
They all went into these mini hobo sacks that I made and sort of fell in love with. I have some of this (and the lining) fabric left over and I can't wait to use it again!

I've wanted to try the crayons before...was it as easy as it looks on the tutorials??
Great job! We need a sewing craft night!
Thanks everyone! The crayons are super easy.. I used an empty Rotel can to make a disposable double boiler, melted the crayons down and poured the wax into a chocolate mold. Pop it in the fridge for a few minutes and the crayons set and slide right out of the mold :)
Kelli- I'm totally up for that!
wow, i love each and every detail!!! good job.
