crafty?...

I use the line, "I could eeeeeeasily make that!" a lot.

{It's actually become a bit of a joke between Brock and I...example: after Trey and I flew back to Alberta, and I realized how FAST it is I said I wish we had an airplane...and Brock chimes in, "I could

eeeeasily make that!"-whatever!} 

I see things I think are cute and I feel like I could make it for less then the price tag...usually. I will admit, I am pretty sure a couple of these projects have ended up being a bit, or a lot, more...but most of the time I can somewhat replicate it for WAY less!

So the other day I was in this adorable baby boutique and saw the cutest mobiles! Checked the tag...yep, $80! Ouch! So I decided I would attempt to make one...

Sometimes I like to think I am "crafty" but other times I feel like it is more on the "crappy" end...

this one I am not too sure?...BUT it was a lot less then $80!

{clothes hanger- free! buttons-1 lbs bag for $3 from Walmart! Thread- had it...so free! Paper- $10 for a 50 page book of cardstock from Winners!}

It probably doesn't look like it but I spent like 5 hours on this thing, I got a little bit crazy trying to make a good bird shape and Brock thought it was funny when he said, "Um, Amy...are you sewing paper?"...

At least I can imagine Trey likes it...he doesn't cry when he looks at it, 

so that must mean something good right??
