PIXIE'Z & PASTA....

Pixie skirt # 2

I think I am more in love with this version
than the water pixie skirt.!!!




And then there is this!
Which is on the top of my to do list
BUY IT!!!

So I came up with a 2nd version of my PIXIE'Z. I am so in love with this version and I did a little tweaking as well. I tried the first pixie on Charli and it fell right off. So I knew that I needed to make all my future skirts a bit smaller. Pretty much only an inch less. So I tried that this go round.....and guess what.....it fits her perfect! Which made me so happy. I became inspired to try a different version when Charli was wearing her Tinkerbell costume yesterday and the bottom of the skirt looked similar. I can't say enough about how happy I am with the end result of this super wispy pixie!!!
My parents asked me last month what I would like for my birthday.... and after some thinking and an invite to make homemade ravioli's.......I knew exactly what I wanted. So hopefully soon I will be the new owner of a pasta machine. I am so excited to be able to make my own pasta and know exactly what I am consuming when pasta is on the dinner menu. This little baby is an Atlas brand and from what I have seen....is super versatile. I know that Charli will just love helping out with making pasta, so I am looking forward to that as well. She is always wanting to help out with cooking. It makes me happy to see her so interested because at times I view cooking as a chore instead of an enjoyment.
