Whats a STEAMPUNK?

So after much debate...we tossed out the idea of going with an old world/tuscan feel with our home decore and decided to go more towards steam punk...as it incorporate the old school traditional stuff that I like, and the funky modern stuff that micah likes.

Thankfully all the colors that we had already picked out and started putting onthe walls goes with this new scheme.

I put a couple inspiration boards together, its more fun and creative (Which is SO us) The funny thing is, we already had some of these elements in our house...now we just need to pull it together for an over all feel/look :)

Here are a few little "boards" I whiped up of some of our wedding photos!

O is for Olivia!

I saw this cute felt book online a few months ago and decided that I wanted to take a crack at it for my niece Olivia and spell out her name in pictures. I have never really done any hand sewing (Just stitching up a hole in clothes, nothing crazy) And I have never done any felting...so I went into this project pretty much blind and hoping that it would turn out half as cute as the one I saw online.

I started it in March, I worked on it just about every night after work, sewing for about 2-3 hours a night. And I spent one whole weekend sewing for about 6 hours a day! I finished it sometime around the end of April, just after Olivia was born :) I estimates that I put about 50-60 hours into this book.

Sooo here it is. Be kind, it was my first time.

O is for Octopus
L is for Lion I is for Insect

V is for Vegetables

I is for Ice Cream Cone

A is for Alligator (Micah drew this one for me, and then I cut it out!)The End...I just realized this is a boring page, it needs some bling :(
