Crewcuts

I just received the cutest catalog in the mail, Crewcuts, it's J Crew for kids, sooo cute. Since both of my children are now officially "kids" not toddlers or babies, I've had a hard time finding clothes that are still cute, but "cool" for them. Grier is easy, you can never got wrong with Ralph Lauren or Polo. But my itty bitty Baylor doesn't want to wear the kiddy stuff stuff anymore, and I really am not into this "Justice" store that all her friends and her love, so I think this will be a perfect compromise.

What little studs, love Peacoats for boys

Such a fashionista, this is totally a "Baylor" look!

So cute, I want this outfit

Love classic Navy, ordered this one for Baylor already :)

Orange You Glad it's Fall

It may have taken forever, and  cost a small fortune, but I finally made my clove oranges. I Found a cute idea online to tie ribbon around the oranges so you could hang them, but i just tied them in to bows, and really liked how they turned out. They're a festive Holiday decoration, and smell so good! 

What you'll need:
-Oranges (however many you'd like, I did 5)
-Whole Cloves (if you can find them in bulk, you'll save some money, the individual bottle were expensive, and it took me three bottles to do 5 oranges)
-Ribbon

It's easiest to wrap the ribbon around the orange, cross and bring back up to the top and tie.

This also makes a great little outline to follow, then individually press each close in. Some people recommend using a toothpick or needle to make holes first, but i think its just as easy to just push the cloves in.

I love the look of a completely covered orange, but I knew I hadn't bought enough cloves to do that, so I left my pattern a little more open.

My little helpers, they loved making these

Proudly displaying their hard work

Voila!
