Whale Book Ends {Anthropologie Knock-Off}

November 20, 2014 by Bethany 2 Comments

I will be honest, I am not really sure what I am doing in my house, decor-wise. I need some new ideas, so I often look at all the beautiful stuff at stores like Anthropologie and Pottery Barn. Their stuff is of course, adorable and awesome, but I can’t bring myself to spend that kind of money on decor. When I stumbled on this adorable whale book end set at Anthropologie, I fell in love, but knew I would never spend $70 on book ends. I decided to try and make them myself. 

These whale bookends ended up being less of a knock-off and more of a “creative interpretation”. But I still like how they turned out. 
 

These Anthropologie-Inspired Whale Bookends are a much cheaper option, and fun to make! {Tutorial by Whistle and Ivy}

Toddler Whale Bath Mitt

July 16, 2014 by Bethany 8 Comments

So (I guess) the Boy isn’t a baby anymore! He helps fold the washcloths, picks up his toys, throws dirty laundry in the washer and helps transfer wet clothes into the dryer. He also does me a HUGE favor by not throwing a fit when it’s time to change his diaper (Not even interested in potty-training yet, humph!).  But I decided he could probably handle some of his bath time by himself as well. The Boy is very much into sea creatures right now, so I knew he would love this little whale bath mitt. This little mitt works up pretty quick, and I love this 100% cotton yarn. It absorbs water and gets a nice lather, and completely dries when hung up.
