I did finally do something for me last week that I have been meaning to do since last summer, I don't know why it always takes me so long. I saw online a very cute way to personalize your camera and I of course was all about that. I just took wide ribbon (thanks kristi the ribbon I used came from you) and sewed it onto my camera strap. Can I just say how much more I love using it now, I know crazy to imagine.
After taking those photos of Crystalyn's Thomas I put together a cd for her. There is just something about a homemade cd that looks official. Love those little toes.
I also made another accordion box for Crystalyn's bday earlier in the month. I love making these. It's such a creative way to display your photos. Something I am always looking for.Oh and I had to share this last one.
I have been asked before if I have any out takes. My answer would definitely have to be yes. It's unfortunate that she's a picker, but indeed she is.

So good to know that I'm not the only one with a 'picker' in the family!! Makes for some funny photos though. :D Your new camera strap..that's awesome!! I've never seen or heard of personalizing your own before. Something I might have to seriously consider. ;)
Love the picture of the picker. Ha-ha. I always love the outtake pictures, because they show personalities so well. Especially the personality traits we would rather keep hidden.
Seriously the camera strap is adorable. Great idea.
Love your creative ideas!!
We also have a picker in our midst. I love peeking in on your projects. And you photos, once again, are always a delight.
oh man do i have a picker too!!!!
i am dying to make one of those camera straps but unfortunatly have no skills on the sewing machine... perhaps i could give you the supplies and you could whip one out for me???
the accordian box is beautiful as always...
The camera strap is to die for, I love it! And the cd for Crystalyn is perfect! This post is full of creative genius, thanks for posting it!!
I'm glad you posted some projects again. Your camera strap is the cutest! I love the CD label and accordion box for Thomas. So sweet.
Amy I would be so happy to do that for you. Bring over your ribbon and strap...it literally took 10 minutes.
That cd is beautiful Amy. Toes are my favorite too. And the camera strap--darling!
That out take is classic. Umm we have a few of those too :)
I love your projects! I really want to make an accordion boxes. They are amazingly cute.
I love the ribbon on the camera strap, what a great idea. I also love the photo on the cd label, it looks fabulous.
You've mastered the accordion boxes and I always love what you come up with, they're such a great gift.
I think all kids are nose pickers, it's just a matter of how public they are about it or not. Nasty.
Love your creative crafts. The toes are precious and so is the box. Lov ethe ribbon on your camera. So cute and fun.
Love the outtake. I have many pictures of snot trails but no picker pictures.
I love love that box!!!! Beautiful, you are so creative Amy..
Alas, my girl is a picker and eater, much to my chagrin. If I tell her its gross she looks at me and says, "I just need to eat my boogers mom."
Who can argue with that?
Always glad to know my girls are in good company when they are caught with their fingers up their noses. Cute! I love the camera strap-I think I'll be making myself one of those. Thanks always for the great ideas!
Oh, I could have used this post earlier today. I love the picking nose picture. I have one of my Jothan...picking...asleep. Too funny! I love all of your projects, all so very beautiful and uniquely you! ;)
I love your camera strap, way too cute! What a beautiful accordian box, your creativity amazes me!
I love your projects. The camera strap seems so simple, yet the fun bright orange is personal and would attract me to use it as well. I think it's wonderful that you take the time for projects that are yours- I think it makes you who you are and why I love reading your blog so much.
Your camera strap looks FANTASTIC! Orange is such a bold, perfect colour to go with the black of the camera. I can well imagine it's given your photography a bit of a boost - not that it needed it, fab shots as usual.
Outtakes is funny. I honestly never thought whether you had any, but of course - having kids - it's really goes without saying they fill our days with 'whoops' moments!
I am now staring at my camera strap to see how I could do that. I love it!
I also LOVE the cd label. It is so much cuter than just writing on them. One more skill I need to master.
I love seeing your projects. I don't know how so many great things are going on at your house!
I so wish I could talk Linc into a snazzy ribbon strap alteration like that- I have wanted to make one for so long! Oh well. Your projects are fantastic as usual.
Love the camera strap, the accordian box, and the cd. And don't we all have a "picker" in the family? :)
baby feet = so sweet
love your projects. the orange polka dots are awesome and happy!
picker pics = funny. she will love that one when she is older! :)
My little guy picks when he is shy. Every time we are around someone new his finger shoots up to his nose. Like when he met his future pre school teacher today.
Love your projects!
Big fan of your blog! Would love to give those accordion boxes a try. Where do you purchase the boxes?
I love the camera strap. Beautiful little way to bring big daily smiles.
Amy - I loooooooooooooooove your projects .. Just gorgeous!!
I need to make me a gorgeous strap like that .. just need to find me some really cool ribbon like yours!
and the CD .. I love the image you chose for the cover.. thanks for sharing your so many ideas!!
Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I love your creative ideas: the ribbon on the camera strap is really cool makes it look very personalized; the pic of the foot on the photo cd is awesome (love it!) and I really like the accordion box. How and where did you get it done if you don't mind my asking.
Gotta love the picker! lol
Great blog!
Love all the ideas on photos and how you can frame them especially the accordion one and the cd idea was out of this world brilliant. Thanks for sharing. I am really a newbie at this blogging thing so thanks for sharing again about the blog banner on design mom as well.
OK, I don't think your camera strap could be any cuter!! I think I'm in love...
