Mom's presents

[cest-la-vie.livejournal.com]

I combined my mom's Mother's Day gift with her birthday gift since I wasn't quite done with it so I saved it for her birthday and just gave her the card I got her. She was happy with it, but I wasn't satisfied. It is hard not to give someone something when you have it for him or her. My beautiful and creative daughter, Aly helped me with it and her little brother; Xander also helped by lending his handprints for a paper that has a little poem on it.

The Shawl! The Lionbrand Suede Shawl with flower that I did for her as well.	The Birthday Crown! This wouldn't have taken very long if I hadn't taken so many breaks. It is actually easy to do and Aly wants one so I will do her one as well.
The Lighthouse Box I stained a purse box (Aly's grat idea. :) ) I got from Michael's and then painted a wooden lighthouse and glued it on top. Mom has a thing for lighthouses.	Birthday Crown inside I added fabric to the inside andthen put the Crochet Crown in it.
