Rhinestone T Shirt for My Gramma's 90th Birthday

My Gramma will be turning 90 in September. Wow, 90 years old and she is still going strong and does not let anything stop her. She has been loving her time as this retirement home she is now living in. She helps out in the office and goes on trips with her senior friends to other senior citizen places around the SoCal area.

Since moving to NorCal, I only see my Gramma two or three times a year, unless she comes up to my home with one of my Aunties.

Anyway, this is one of four gifts I am making for my Gramma. I have already made two T Shirts for her and will be making a gift box and a sweet treat too.

Here are some photos of the Rhinestone T-Shirt for my Gramma's birthday. The T Shirt is a medium Brown and reads: GG of Twin Girls

1st: I purchased these rhinestones from a mass retailer.



2nd: I also purchased this brown T from a mass retailer.



3rd: I cut each letter I needed to write my message on the T and placed them where I needed on the T. I pressed down hard all the letters into place. Then, I turned the T inside out and on a low setting, I ironed on the letters for 3-5 seconds. Once all letters were ironed on into place, I let the T cool down, then turned the T to the right side.


4th: This is what the T looks like after ironing on the letters into place for my T Shirt.

These shirts are very easy to make, as long as you always follow the directions. No cutting corners, I have done that in the past the iron-on rhinestones do not want to stick to the T Shirt.

Personalized Kids Products to Put a Smile on Your Child's Face

School is or will be starting soon. If you have little ones beginning kindergarten, they will more likely than not, be taking an afternoon nap. This is when having a personalized nap mat for your kindergartner is important. When you purchase a personalized nap mat for your little one, they will come in over ten different colors or designs. Your child's first name or first initial will be sewn on the front side of the nap mat. The best thing about these nap mat's are, they are lined and padded for extra comfort. When your child or children are cold, they can wrap fleece blanket around their body for extra warmth during the colder months. Another added feature of taking this nap mat to school is the removable pillow. The pillow will comfort your child's head from ever hitting the cold floor.


Along with giving your child the nap mat for added comfort during nap time, your child can also go to school with this personalized kids backpack. There are over ten personalized kids backpacks for your toddler to choose from. The personalized toddler backpacks come in the colors brown, pink, blue, green, camouflage and more. These toddler backpacks come are made in the sizes 8" x 11" and 14" x 12". The bigger backpacks would be ideal for older children.

Starting off the new school year in style is a plus, especially when wanting to make a good first impression.

TwiceBabies Making Princess Wands

Four weeks ago, I was in a dollar store looking in their craft section. While in the craft section, I found some rubber wands. The wands came three or four in a pack. There were light pink, green yellow and blue wands. Next to these wands were bags of stickers. Some stickers were floral shaped and animal shaped.

Now, my twins always need to be kept busy, either by their own devices or with Mommy's help. So, I purchased two packs of colorful wands and one pack of shiny floral stickers. When I got home, I opened both packs of wands so my twins would have the same color. They have to have the same color in everything; clothes, hair accessories, shoes and toys.

So, here are my twins making their personalized wands and having fun too.
