Today I'm sharing how to make a kid's apron out of an old pair of Jeans.

These aprons are easy to make and the BEST for crafting and messy play.

They make a great gift for a crafty child, and they're super for a home daycare or preschool classroom.

They're durable, stain-resistant and long-lasting, and best of all, they don't cost a thing to make!

Happy New Year, Lovelies!

If you have a new baby to buy for this year, you have to check out my step-by-step tutorial for these AWESOME giant, reversible receiving blankets!

They're huge, and they're double-sided so they're super-cushy and warm.

Great for the crib, stroller or playpen, and wonderful for wrapping a baby in after the bath.

They're so large, I used mine until my youngest was 2 or 3 years old.

Best baby-shower gift ever.

And they're so easy to make. If you can sew a straight line, you can totally handle this project!

BEST. BIBS. EVER. And they won't cost you a penny.

Seriously!

I don't use anything else in my daycare.

I made these out of our old jeans and tee shirts almost 10 years ago, and look at them. ..

They're gorgeous! Not a mark on them, and as durable and perfect as the day I made them.

Actually.... they're even better because you know how it is with jeans and tee-shirts.... they get better and better with age.

Best of all, this sewing project is SO easy, you'll be able to make these bibs as long as you can sew a straight line!

Check 'em out! Hope you love them as much as we do!
