Sensory Baby Ribbon Block!

If you missed my post last week on Sew Can Do, then check out this cute baby toy!

I made this out of TEXTURE MAGIC! I also added a jingle bell inside, so that it would make noise! If you don't know what TEXTURE MAGIC is then you can read about it here!

Here is an up close picture of this fun baby sensory block!

I am going to be putting these in my ETSY store that will be opening soon!

Ribbon Balls!

I just realized that I never posted my ribbon balls that I shared on
Keeping It Simple last week.

So here is my ribbon ball tutorial!

Supply List

*styrofoam balls

*ribbon

*hot glue gun

*glue sticks

Step 1~

Start at the top of your styrofoam ball and glue the tip of the ribbon.

Step 2~

Continue to glue your ribbon around the ball

Step 3~

When you get to the other end of the ball cut the ribbon a little longer than you need and tuck it under and glue it to the ball.

Step 4~

This is what it should look like all finished

Now onto the burlap balls!

I used the tutorial from Jen over at Tatertots and Jello to put the burlap on. You can find the tutorial here!

Your ball should look like this..

Dress up your burlap ball with ribbon!

Step 1~

Cover your seams by gluing ribbon along them!

Step 2~

Add some ribbon to the top as well!

Step 3~

Glue another strip of ribbon through the center of the ball.

Step 4~

Grab a  basket or bowl and put all your ribbon balls into it to create a cute centerpiece!

It is that easy!

Ribbon Bow Holder!

I have wanted to make my daughter a bow holder for all her adorable bows. She has so many of them and I just had them thrown into a basket. The basket started to over flow and I was tired of digging through the basket to find the bows I was looking for. I was constantly picking up bows that I had thrown onto the floor while I looked for the right ones. So this is what I created!

It was so simple. I took a 12x12 frame and painted it purple. Then I took different colors of ribbon and stapled them to the back. I then hung it up in my daughter's room and added her bows! It was that easy. I love how it turned out!

FYI~ I got my frame from The Wood Connection and my ribbon from JoAnn's!
