DIY Bird Wings Pattern and Tutorial from Eri at Llevo el Invierno for Prudent Baby here. The pattern measurements are for 18 to 36 months, but you could easily adjust this pattern. *Prudent Baby just posted other bloggers’ variations on these wings here.
DIY Tie On Tutu Tutorial from Grosgrain here. There are lots of tutorials for tie on tutus, but this one was so thorough and the finished tutu is so pretty. This would be so fun for dress up or Halloween. *Tulle can run as low as $1 a yard on sale.
DIY Easy Bat Wing Shrug for Halloween from My Poppet here. Or for dress up or because.
DIY Pretend Makeup Using Nail Polish. I never tried to get into my mom’s makeup, but I know lots of little kids who did/do. This is an easy and cheap DIY (think Dollar Store nail polish if you don’t have any). Tutorial from artsy fartsy mama here.
Three Lace Crown Tutorials. For dressup, to file away for Halloween or just because. *Kids should not put any of these in their mouths - not safe with the fabric stiffener and paint used!

About
This blog is for my crafting alter ego. I did lots of crafts with my very artistic mother growing up and continue doing them with kids now. I love really good kids' crafts that hold their attention and mine. When you have that combination you have a great project!
