DIY Monster Costume
When I first became pregnant with my second baby I loved that his birthday would be in the month of October. I immediately thought that his first birthday had to be a monster themed party.. and probably every party after. (my brain and anxiety thinks wayyyyy ahead like that) So last year when it was time to start working on party plans for Brigham’s first birthday party, I already had it alllll planned out in my head. And I am obsessed with how it all turned out. He was the cutest in his handmade monster outfit and the cake and cupcakes were to die for. I loved how i was…

How to Make a Baby Car Seat Cover
After having two babies either right before winter or in the middle of winter I learned quickly how hard but important it ways to keep your baby warm and covered. During winter there is so much sickness going around that I never want to leave my house with my kids, let alone a new baby! But there are times when you just have to get out of the house.

Overall, I’m a big fan of…

How to Make Baby Shoes
After I found out I was pregnant with my first baby, little Crew, I immediately made him his first pair of shoes. They were the cutest little things and screamed BYU. Making baby things has always brought me so much joy and so has buying them! Before even having kids I was obsessed with the company Freshly Picked. I love the baby shoes they make but I also love hearing about all things business. Susan at Freshly Picked is a serious Boss Babe and such an inspiration to me! However as poor college students I knew buying those moccasins was not an option at the time so I set out…

How to Make and Tie a Baby Wrap
Almost four years ago I made a video on How to Make a Baby Wrap. I wanted one of those really nice wraps that everyone loved and swore by with new babies but I did not want to fork over the money to buy one! Those things can get really expensive and as college students, we did not have money for that! So after doing a little research on them, I thought why couldn’t I make one of those? They are SO SIMPLE and with the right sales, SO MUCH CHEAPER! Well, I made the video and it has been awesome! However looking back I do not love the quality…
