Oops, I Craft My Pants

Baseball Surprise Party

2012-02-03T14:48:00.000-07:00

Last Friday, I decided I wanted to throw a surprise party for my husband Tyler. So, I hurried and whipped up a party invitation. Then, I invited a bunch of Tyler's friends, who all graciously accepted. Seriously, Tyler's (and my!) friends are the greatest.

I made the invite look like a ticket. This totally wasn't my idea, though. I just googled and saw some invites I liked. Then, I just mixed them all together into one that I reeeally liked.
See how they're orange and black? Yeah, that was me being a "cool" wife and having the party be Giants (Tyler's fave team) colors.

That lasted about .2 seconds, though. Because orange and black reeeally weren't working for a cute party. Like, at all. It was looking like Halloween up in hurr. So, naturally, I changed the colors to fit my aesthetic needs.

Anyway, here are some pictures of the shebang. I'm completely awful at taking pictures these days, so I missed a lot of pictures and all the decorations aren't here. Dang! Oh well.

Also, sorry for the awful lighting! The party was at 6 and umm.. It was dark already when more pictures were taken.

Okay.

This wreath was one of my favorite projects to make! I love that it was the first thing all the guests saw and it really set the theme for the party.

When you walked in, there was a big pennant banner, but I have no pictures of that. You believe me though...Right? Phew!

And, on the wall was this lovely sign. Can you tell I am awful at straight lines? I hated it at first, but I ended up loving its quirkiness by the end.

There was also a little baseball for Tyler's friends to sign, and a little line with pictures of Tyler (side note: baby Tyler looks SO much like baby E...It's nuts. I'll post the picture in a post later this week!)

Then, on the right there was the treat table, which included different homemade popcorns, candies, and a (lame) homemade cake.

I also made some printables for those frames behind the table so that everything would stay in the theme.

Here's a pictures of the cake I made close up. It was pretty lame. I just put a ribbon on it and slapped a baseball on top and called it good. Whatever. I saw one like it online. But uhh...Mine didn't turn out as great at all.

For food, we had hotdogs. My mom bought the best ones from Costco, and we loved them. She also provided some jdawgs sauce to go along with them YUM!

My favorite part of all the decor was the drink station, though!

I found these perfect cocacola glasses for each of the guests. I loved how they looked all lined up on the counter.
I totally forgot to tell everyone to take one home, though. So, now I'm stuck with 20 glasses. It's a little ridiculous. Want one?

I love how it turned out. And, I was pretty dang proud of myself for making all the printables, decorations, and flavored popcorn all by myself. It felt good to accomplish all of that and see everything come together.

Seeing Tyler's face as he looked at everything was so great. I also loved that he got to see all of his friends in one place. We haven't seen some of our friends in a while, and he loved talking with them all and catching up.

He is the greatest, and I'm so happy that I was able to surprise him!

Mallory Robin Art

2012-01-30T19:29:00.000-07:00

Sometimes, I wish I were artistic.
I mean, I know I'm crafty (that's why I have a craft blog!), but when it comes to drawing or painting, I'm just not good at it.

Which, is really too bad because I dream of having original artwork all around in my house. Thankfully, my good friend Mallory is great at art.

She has been great at art since she came out of her mom's womb, I'm pretty sure! I remember in high school, she was always doodling on our math worksheets and it made me so jealous. Her doodles were always perfect and beautiful and all around great. Mine? Well...They looked like crap.

Anyway! Mallory gave me one of her flower painting the other day and it is amazing.

I love everything about it. I especially love the colors she used and how there is so much texture. I just can't stop staring at it over on my wall.

Aside from amazing flower paintings, Mal does amazing portraits--of people AND dogs. I swear, getting my dog's portrait done by her is on my to do list.

She is very reasonably priced, and I love the flare she adds to each piece.
Seriously, you need to go check her out.

Be prepared to be amazed.

(Mal compensated me with a flower painting to do this review. BUT, she didn't tell me anything to say. I just genuinely love all of her work and know that you guys will, too!)

PSA Essentials Review and Giveaway

2012-01-19T11:16:00.002-07:00

****Giveaway Closed. Congrats comment number 55, Jonnie!****

I didn't send out Christmas cards this year. Want to know why? Because I'm lazy. That's why! I was too lazy to write my address on each envelope. Pathetic, amirite?
I thought about ordering address stickers, but with the hustle and bustle of the season, it just didn't happen. So, sadly, no Christmas cards for us!

Here's the thing, though. After the Christmas season was over, PSA Essentials contacted me about their custom stamps! As I browsed their site, I fell in love with the cutest custom address stamps ever. I knew that those stamps would be the cure for my laziness. Or...My mail laziness, anyway!

Luckily, PSA Essentials was nice enough to send me a stamp of my very own to try out.

But wait! It gets better (does that sound like an infomercial? Oops!...But, seriously, it gets better!)
All PSA Essential stamps are peel and stick--Meaning you can peel certain things off of your custom stamp and replace it with images to match the season or occasion. So brilliant.

See? Here's a Christmas tree alone on the left, and with a cute little border on the right.

Or, here's just a simple monogram with a cute border.

OR! Check it out, a cute little flower with my address around it.

I love that I can customize my stamp whenever I feel like it. So, I can ditch my address and use the stamp for something else. Like, say...Crafting maybe?

When I first received my stamps in the mail, I was a little worried about a few things.
1-Would the stamps lose their stickiness?
2- How the heck would I change the ink color?
3-Wouldn't it be messy to peel the stamps off once I was ready to switch them out?
4- How would I get the peel and stick stamp to be centered on the stamp body?

Luckily, none of those were even a problem.
1- Despite peeling and sticking the stamps over and over again these past few weeks, the stamps are still as sticky as ever!

2- The PSA Essentials site has great videos that show exactly how to change the ink out. I felt silly for even being worried about it!

3-The stamps were a breeze to clean off. I just used a baby wipe and they were as good as new!

4- This nifty little guy helped me line up the peel and stick stamps so they were perfectly centered.

This product is seriously awesome.
I tried to find something negative to say about this product, because this post makes them sound too good to be true, right? But, I couldn't even think of one thing I would change.

Annnyway.

One (1) lucky US or Canada resident will win their own personalized PSA Essentials stamp ($30 value)!

Want to enter?
-Become a follower of the PSA Essentials blog or become a fan of their Facebook and leave me a comment saying you did. If you do both of those things, leave two comments.

And, that's it! Easy, right?
Giveaway ends on Tuesday, January 24, 2012 and winner will be contacted via email.

Good luck!

DIY Instagram Magnets

2012-01-12T12:13:00.000-07:00

I'm so glad you guys enjoyed my screen saver from last week! I'm thinking of making a few more...Any quotes or patterns you'd love to see? Let me know and I'll try to get 'em up here for you to use as wallpaper.
_______

Anyway! I have been loving Instagram on my phone lately. It's just so convenient. Especially for taking pictures of my baby. I'm addicted to it!

Unfortunately, all of my Instagram pictures usually just stay on there because...Well...What else am I going to do with them?

Luckily, my sister gave me some Instagram magnets from StickyGram for Christmas. I fell in love with them. So, I decided to DIY some of my own to give to grandparents.

It was super easy. All I had to do was find some magnets (I just used magnetic ads that I didn't need anymore), print off my Instagram pictures, trim the pictures, modpodge them to the magnets, trim the excess magnet, and stick them to my fridge.

Who knew that stainless steel fridges weren't magnetic on the front? Not me!

Don't know how to print off pictures from your phone? Just go to your photos and click the little box with the arrow.

Then, click on "email photo" and email the picture to yourself.

From there, just print it off of your computer.

OR

You can go to FollowGram and link up your Instagram. All of your Instagram photos will automatically go onto your FollowGram account and you can just drag the photos you want off onto your desktop..

Do you have Instagram? Follow me @teandbaby. I'd love to follow you back!

Hope that helps!

Have a great weekend.
My husband has something exciting planned for my birthday (tomorrow) and I can't wait!

iPhone Chevron Wallpaper

2012-01-04T19:25:00.003-07:00

**Warning: This post is probably too long to be considered healthy**
*reposted from my fam blog.
______

Lately, I have been finding myself on my phone. A lot.
I feel like I'm always writing back to emails, checking blogs, texting, or whatever else all through the day.

I love that I have all of those things right at my fingertips. What I don't love? The fact that it's so easy to just "check something real quick", but then end up on my phone looking around way longer than I needed to be in the first place.

So...I decided that my phrase for the year would be "be present". This phrase applies to so many areas in my life. I feel like I show up to things and participate, but I'm never fully there because I always need to "check just one little thing" on my phone. Been there before? Tell me it's not just me?

I've noticed this happening more and more. So...I decided to make a little screen saver for my phone that says "be present"...That way, when I'm on the ground playing with El and get the urge to check my phone, my phrase for the year will be right there in my face and hopefully I'll decide to be more present in what I'm doing, instead of checking my phone.

And, I also decided to put it on this here blog so that you can use it, if you'd like.

And, here's just the plain chevron, if you don't like the whole phrase thang.

Don't know how to use a wallpaper on your phone? Easy! Just double click the picture you want to use and then choose "save image"

If "save image" doesn't show up after you double click, just take a screen shot of the image you want to use (click the top button and the middle button at the same time, like in the image below).

After that, go to your pictures on your phone and the image you chose (or screen shot) should be in there. Just click on the picture to view it.

Theeen click the little icon that has the arrow coming out of a box.

And click on "use as wallpaper"

After that, you'll just want to scale the image to fit your screen and click "set".

Then, it'll pull up a menu like this where you can choose where to put the image.

I decided to put the one with words as my lock screen and the plain chevron as my home screen, but I mean...You can use them however you want. It's your phone, after all.

Taadaaa.

Balboa Baby Shopping Cart Cover- Review

2011-12-30T10:09:00.000-07:00

I'm not huge on worrying about germs. I don't know, maybe that makes me crazy?...But, I always feel like when shopping carts and my baby are involved, a good wipe down should suffice.

The ol' wiping method worked great for me. And, to be honest, I always thought the shopping cart covers other mamas were using were a little ridiculous. That is, until I realized that cart covers were for more than just protecting from germs!

Let's set the scene, shall we? Okay...So, we were walking around Home Depot. Just me, the mister, and the baby. Baby girl was buckled into the cart and having a grand ol' time ~~holding~~ chewing on paint chips. She looked adorable. Like, for real. I even snapped pictures (on my phone) of her moments before the incident.

See? Adorbs.

Then, out of nowhere, she lost her balance and smacked her head into the cart. I totally won worst mom award right then. My poor baby was screaming and had little bruises from where the cart hit her. OW!

That's when I vowed to start looking into cart covers. And, can I just say, thank goodness for Balboa Baby? They stepped up to the plate and sent me an adorable cart cover to review (in the pattern Suri).

I was so surprised when it came the next day (!!!!) in the mail. They had such great customer service. It was the first thing I noticed about the company.

Next? The shopping cart cover was SO.COOL. Not only was it the best pattern ever, it was also completely compact. In fact, it even folds into itself to form a little bag! How great is that?

Of course, we had to rush to the store and try it out. Baby E loved it! She was squealing the whole time. I especially love how soft it is! I don't have to worry about baby girl losing her balance and whacking her head anymore. The padding makes her feel secure (and protects her little body from harm), while not being too bulky.

Did I mention it even fits onto high chairs?

Really, I love this thing and am so grateful I got to try it out. I bring it every where now, and can't go more than a few steps in the store without people asking me all about it!

If you're in the market for a shopping cart (or high chair) cover, this one is for you!

So, was this post too long? I got a little excited. Sorry!
Here are the cliff notes!

Balboa Baby Shopping Cart Cover

pros:-Easy to use.
-Adorable.
-Just the right amount of padding.
-Two loops for toys to hook onto (no more bending over to retrieve thrown toys. YAY!)
-Folds into itself to form a perfect little bag.
-Can be used on a highchair as well.

cons:
-I wish it came with instructions. I mean, it was easy to figure out after a bit, but the first time I used it I was a little lost.
-I should have gone with a darker color. Shopping carts are grosser than I thought!

**Balboa Baby gave me this product to review. This post contains my actual feelings about the product, and they had no say in what I wrote in this post**

Easy baby leg warmers

2011-12-21T23:35:00.000-07:00

We went to Target the other day to grab some quick stocking stuffers. It was a huge mistake going shopping on the Saturday before Christmas Eve. Never again!

The good news is, I picked up two pairs of cute patterned tube socks. I have been wanting to sew her some knock off Baby Legs for a while now (since the $12 a pop for real ones just seems cray cray to me).

I know there's a million tutorials around for these online...But, I thought I'd share mine, just because I'm still kind of amazed that I knew how to even thread my sewing machine!

So basically, it went like this.

1. Gather socks. Preferably cute ones.
2. Measure your baby's legs and cut your sock at that length (leaving the top part in tact)
3. So, basically you have a pair of crew cut socks, and then the long tops separate.
4. Cut about two more inches off of the top of the "crew cut" socks.
5. Take that two inch piece, and fold it in half (with right sides facing out)
6. Slip the two inch piece over the long piece from step 2 (make sure all raw edges line up. You can pin if you need to!)
7. Sew them together at the raw edge and flip them open to see your brand new (knock-off) Baby Legs.

After all of that, you should probably find a cute baby (easiest step for me!) and have them model their brand new legs.

Be sure to stop and admire the chub.

She is loving them so far. I even got a smile. See?

I'm loving them, too! They have made diaper changes a breeze so far!

So...What about you? Have you made anything cute lately? I want to see!

drama drama :)

2011-12-19T16:13:00.000-07:00

Wow, you guys. I am in awe over here from the amount of love you all showed to me regarding the direction my blog is going. You are all so supportive, and you have no idea how much that means to me.

My husband and I have been talking a lot these past few days about this blog, and what it has done for me and my family. It helped bring me out of the slump of having difficulty conceiving...It helped me to be strong and to feel important (for lack of better word?)...And, it has helped mold me into who I am today. As weird as that sounds.

So, as you can imagine, I am having a hard time giving it up. Receiving emails about people wanting to buy this place really made me feel sad. Which, I wasn't expecting. I thought for sure I would feel a huge wave of relief once I started getting people interested in calling this site their own.

It turns out, I'm not ready to give up my blog baby yet.
BUT. I am also not about to give up precious time with my real life baby.

So...I've come to a conclusion!

I know a lot of you aren't going to like it. I know I'll probably lose some precious readers. BUT! I know this is the right thing for me, my family, and my blog.

Are you ready for it?
One word.

MERGER.

Yup. I'm going to be merging Oops! I Craft My Pants with my shmop blog.

I'm sure you're wondering what the heck that even means. Basically...You will still find crafts here on Oops! I Craft My Pants. They just may not be as often as they have been lately. I'm still planning on hosting "tute"-in Tuesday and Moochin' Monday...So, don't forget to link up!
In addition to crafts...You'll be seeing a few giveaways a week (and maybe even some reviews). Each giveaway will be from a small shop, so they're bound to be crafty items!
**I may have a few bigger companies host giveaways as well, but the majority will be from small shops
I know lots of readers are so not into giveaways...And, to them I am super sorry! I just love the idea of giving small shops more exposure. Plus, who doesn't love winning things?

Okay, I hope this all made sense. And, I hope you're as excited as I am. I feel like this will be the best of both worlds for me. I'll still get to nurture my blog...But, it won't consume so much of my time and energy.

I hope you understand!

Old post...Painted Christmas Bulbs

2011-12-14T09:00:00.000-07:00

This post was originally posted on I Heart Naptime (last Christmas)...I totally forgot to repost it here. Oops!

Today, I’m going to show you how to make some seriously easy Christmas tree decorations. (Which can also be put on a ribbon, if ya know, you like that kind of thing).

Step one: Gather all the supplies. These include: paint, white Christmas bulbs, glitter, a paint brush, and (not pictured, sorry!) Mod Podge or glue. Also, this isn’t required, but you should probably have your phone (or a computer) nearby so that you can blast Christmas music on Pandora. It helps, I promise.

Step two: Begin painting Christmas-y designs onto the Christmas bulbs. I made some candy canes, a few snowmen, and some plain ol’ red polka dotted ones. Don’t worry if your lines aren’t perfectly straight, or if your paint isn’t perfectly even, it’ll hardly be noticeable later on.

Step three: Allow paint to dry. Sorry, no picture of this step. I know, it would have been really exciting to include video, even!

Step four: Break out that Mod Podge! Paint a thin layer over your Christmas bulb.

Step five: Roll that bad boy in your glitter, and let it dry.

Ta-da! You’re finished.

Unless….You want to hang them up on the wall instead of putting them on the tree. My tree isn’t put up yet, so I picked this option. I’m really sorry for the horrible lighting in these pictures.

All you’ve gotta do is grab the ribbon of your choice and string it through the bulbs one at a time. Once the bulb is where you want them to be, make sure to loop the ribbon back through so the Christmas bulbs will stay in place. I tried to take a picture of this step, but it was too hard one handed. I’m so sorry!

So, there you have it! A super easy Christmas craft. I would LOVE to see one of these made with children’s paintings. Pretty sure it would kill me with cuteness.

Moochin' Monday-- CD Ornament

2011-12-12T11:40:00.001-07:00

My mind is a little boggled right now because Christmas is less that two weeks away. Ahh. I have so much shopping left to do! Do you? Or, are you one of those people everyone envys who is on top of their shopping game?

Either way, I am so excited.

Which, is why I chose another Christmas project from "Tute"in Tuesday last week.

I chose to mooch Hardly Housewives's CD Ornaments.

Are these not the greatest thing ever? Seriously, just broken CDs glued to an ornament. Brillllliant.

See you tomorrow for another "Tute"-in Tuesday? I can't wait.

*Don't forget to help support handmade! Shmop is giving away some adorable earrings today!

Handmade Ornament Roundup

2011-12-08T09:00:00.032-07:00

Is decorating your tree not the best thing in the entire world? I love it! I especially love adding new ornaments each year, because they are so much fun to look back on in the years to come.
Here are a few homemade ornaments that I think would make a lovely addition to any tree!

1. embroidered.
2. yarn wreath.
3. button wreath.
4. holly.
5. black dot.
6. music.
7. paper ball.
8. felt tree.
9. felt.
10. clay.

Glitter Ornaments

2011-12-07T09:00:00.002-07:00

Before I get to my craft, I wanted to share this video with you guys!

Wouldn't it be so amazing to be surprised like that while shopping? It would pretty much make my life, I'm pretty sure!

Which, reminds me...I should probably get started on my Christmas shopping. Ahh. Tmobile, would you mind sending the people from that video my way so I can get motivated?

Aaanyway.

I am so excited to share my Christmas ornaments with you today. They were super easy to make and I love how they turned out.

To make these glitter ornaments, all you need are three things! Mod Podge (or any glue of your choice), Christmas tree bulbs, a paint brush, and glitter.

Gathering the supplies was probably the hardest step in this whole process! Because, seriously--These were so easy!

step one: paint with glue.
step two: cover in glitter.
step three: let dry.
step four: brush off excess glitter.
step five: admire those bad boys.

Moochin' Monday-- Tree Ornament

2011-12-05T13:26:00.000-07:00

Sorry I'm getting this post up to late today. This weekend was really busy and so I had to hurry and make my project this morning. And... Well, you know. Life, man.

This week's mooch worthy project comes from Murphey's Law... Only Worse. Who made some pretty great Mod Podged glitter ornaments.

Isn't it great? I really really love hers. Mine isn't even half as glamourous. But, what can you do?

For mine, I took a church magazine that was all about Christmas. Then, I chose a great Christmas picture (of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus) and mod podged it on.

Ta-da.

Meet me here tomorrow for another great round of "Tute"-in Tuesday?

Also, be sure to go check out Shmop and support small businesses from blogland! There's a great giveaway going on right now over there.

I'm so excited to share my new adventure with you guys!

Remember a few days ago when I asked for shop owners to contact me? Well! The response was amazing. Really, it exceeded everything I could even imagine.

So, I've decided to start a little review and giveaway site to help promote small businesses.

It's called....Ready for this?...shmop.

Ya know, like if the word "small" and "shop" had a word baby? I'm pretty sure they'd name is "shmop"

So, there you have it!

So, which is your favorite? Have you wrapped any gifts in fun ways so far this season?

Paint Chip Christmas Garland/Advent Calendar

2011-11-30T07:43:00.034-07:00

The other day I was at Walmart, and the green paint chips were just calling my name. They were like "Errrrika. Take us home with youuu. You could totally make something Christmasy out of us!"

So... I began making a little stack of paint chips. I looked around to make sure no one saw.
Right when I thought I was in the clear, the pain man came up and asked what I was doing.

"Ummm..." I stumbled.
"Well?" He asked with questioning eyes.
"...I wanted to make a craft. I'm sorry, I should have asked first!", I said while looking at something very interesting on the ground.

Then he said it! He told me the best news a girl like me could hear. He said that no one ever took them and to help myself.

PHEW! That was a close one.

Anyway, when I got home, I decided I wanted to make a Christmas garland. So, I started cutting out a bunch of trees from the different shades of green.

Then, I decided I should make it into an advent calendar of sorts, too. So! I stamped on some numbers.

Then, I just taped them to some fishing line, added some fun things for us to do every day in December (on the back of the paint chip) and called it good. Am I the laziest crafter, or what?

The printables in the frames come from here, here, and here.

Moochin' Monday-- Christmas Bow

2011-11-28T08:47:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone! It's great to be back after my (almost) week of no blogging! Man, I missed you guys.

Thankfully, lots of you linked up to last week's "Tute"-in Tuesday, so I still got my craft fix in. Whew! I was so inspired by that link up, that I actually got off my lazy bum and got some crafting done! I can't wait to share the finished products with you this week and in the weeks to come.

Anyway, this week's mooch worthy project comes from Sweetwater Style.

Her tutorial taught me how to make the greatest Christmas bow! I used it when I wrapped the giant painting in my living room.

I know, the scale of my bow is way off...But, I didn't have enough ribbon to make a bigger bow. It'll probably bother me all season, so maybe I'll just have to go buy some more!

But really, such a great bow tutorial! I can't wait to add these cuties to my Christmas gifts.

Speaking of Holiday gifts...Did you score any great deals while out shopping this weekend? Do share!
