Creative Idea's

What a great idea this is. 


When I get one made I will post pictures. I just need to finish up one of my 
containers. I thought this would be great use for our car. 

Another one I saw was 

I need to get a picture for myself. I don't want to copy and use there's. 
 
Make the most perfect potato wedges for your family using an apple corer/wedger!!!
 
 
Coat with olive oil
  salt
 ground black pepper 

Place wedges on lined baking sheet. Bake for about 35 minutes at 450. 
Turn the wedges half way through to ensure they brown evenly! 


Here is another idea I would love to do. When we get this
done I will share pictures too.


If you have any great idea's or things you have done. 
Please feel free to share with us. I love 
getting lots of different ways to use things 
more then one or for one things.

Free online class on Know Your Wool

I thought some may like this. I am signed up and can't wait to watch later tonight when the girls are in bed. Here is what Craftys said:

"Learn about the fibers you are crocheting in the free online Craftsy class Know Your Wool with Deborah Robson! You will develop an understanding of the different wools used for yarns and the best use for each. The best part is that this class isn't limited to a classroom - you'll follow Deborah as she wanders around a wool market, getting to know shepherds, vendors and sheep along the way! To take a closer look at this free Craftsy class, click: Know Your Wool"

I hope you enjoy!
Let me know what you think. 

Happy crafting!

Crocheted Tutu skirt

Crocheted Tutu Skirt

I had so much fun making this. 
Here is the link to the pattern I used.

Baby Tutu

 I did do mine a bit different there she did. 


She had it where you tie off at the end and then start with the first
ruffle at the top. I added my first one at the bottom and worked my way up.
Which I am glad I did. I like this one with just three ruffles. Instead
of four ruffs. 

I also need to add another button to the back. One is just not enough. She had where you 
sew it closed. I thought adding a button would be cute this way. I do really like it. But like 
I said I need to add one more button. So I don't get this big gap.  

 I would like to do ones that are longer for my older girls in colors they would like. 

I did this one for Football coming up soon.  

If you don't know how to crochet and would like one.  Please come to either one of these pages to get one.

Tie Dying Cotton Yarn

Tie Dying Cotton Yarn
I got the idea from here : 

This is what I used to do mine. I did this with my old girls. They had so much fun.


Suppiles needed:
Gloves
White Embroidery Floss
Rubber bands(if wanted, mine still blended in a bit)
Dye( I used what you get for Tie Dying shirts)


I divided mine up into three parts and started to slowly add
color to where I wanted it. 




After I was done. I let it air dry over night or you can also
use a blow dryer on it. Then I washed it out a bit. To get any
extra color off. This is what mine looked like when all finished with that. 


Here is what I started to work on for myself and my girls. We 
are making beaded bracelets out of them. 

If you have any questions. Please feel free to ask. 
Happy Tie Dying!

Crocheted Clock

Crocheted Clock


I saw a post awhile ago on a crocheted clock. I so wanted 
one for my kitchen. But it ended up in our hallway. Which
is fine. I just get to make another one that means. 

I went to Hobby Lobby and got the parts needed to make 
the clock. 

So what I did was just make a circle till it was about the same
size as the as the round board.  I made sure the center could 
go around the clock parts that needed to stick out.



I then added a trim and put it on the board and drew a cicle
around the center part. 

We then knew were to make a whole. My hubby did this 
for me this time. To show me what to do. So next time
I can make one myself. 


 I then crocheted 4 different flowers for 3,6,9,12 and used
buttons for all other numbers. I just hot glued the yarn 
to the board.

 I am in love with my clock.


Think of all the yarn options out there. 

If you would like one visit me on Wiggleworms Corner on Facebook. Send me
a message and we will work out the deals for you.

sl st = slip stitch
st = stitch


Top square piece to tie -
Chain 6
Row 1: sc in second loop from hook, sc in each loop across.  (5)
Row 2-5: sc in each st across (5)
chain one and sc around. I put two sc in the corners. Then fasten off. 

Bottom  part of tie -
chain 4
Row 1: sc in second loop from hook, sc in each loop across (3)
Row 2-7: sc in each st across
Row 8: increase in first st, sc, increase in last st (5)

I then chain one and sc all around. In the corner's and in the part where the tie starts to decrease. When finished with that fasten off. 

Tie around the neck -

I then sew the Top square and bottom part of tie together. I don't sew it all the way closed. I leave room to add in and take out the tie around the neck. They if you don't want the tie to go around the neck. You can take it out and add a paper clip. To just clip onto the shirt. 


Happy Crocheting!
