Matching Baptism Dresses
Our two little girls were baptised on Sunday. So last weeks projects were to make them matching dresses and a few decorations for the party. I made the dresses out of linen fabric using a simple peasant style design. I love how they turned out. They looked so sweet! Here is a sneak preview of the dresses. I’ll post more pictures of the baptism later.
For all you minivan driving mommas out there…
Celebrating my 1 Year Anniversary with a Diaper Bag Giveaway!
2 little hooligans one year anniversary was last week! I can’t believe it has already been one year! When I opened up my etsy shop, I set a goal for myself to sell 100 items in my first year. Well, I definitely reached my goal. I sold somewhere around 470 items! WOW! Now I know why I was so tired all the time, that was a lot of late nights. Thanks to all of you that purchased a 2 little hooligans item for yourself or as a gift. My way of saying thanks to all of you is to have a giveaway. I am giving away this diaper/tote bag (or right now the perfect beach bag!) All you have to do is leave me a comment and become a follower of my blog. Giveaway will end May 25 and winner will be chosen by random. Good Luck!
There are some changes in store for 2 little hooligans over the next year, starting with a new blog, logo, and website. I can’t wait to share them with all of you!
Happy Mother’s Day Grammy!
Hope this adds a little sunshine to your day! We love you Grammy!
Still need a Mother’s Day gift for those special mom’s in your life? Here is a cute little gift that only took about an hour to make. It may take longer if you plan on doing it with the kiddo’s or need to bake the brownies.
First, I made some boxes using scrap booking paper that I had. I found a great tutorial here:

To make the chocolate covered strawberries, melt milk chocolate in the microwave in increments of 30 seconds until completely melted. Dip strawberries into melted chocolate and place on a pan lined with wax paper. Then melt some pink candy melts and lightly drizzle on top of the chocolate strawberries. Let the strawberries harden. Now use a tiny biscuit cutter to cut out the brownies and place into mini cupcake wrappers. Line boxes with a large cupcake wrapper and place two chocolate covered strawberries and two brownies in each box. Put top on boxes and tie with a matching ribbon. Now you are finished!
