Free Crochet Applique Snowman Pattern!

This has been my little secret project for the last couple of days, a sweet little crochet snowman for you! I have just added this little guy to my free tutorials page. All you have to do is click the "Add To Cart" button and prompts will walk you through your free checkout, then the free pattern will be instantly sent to your inbox. This is a good beginner pattern too! I made this shirt for my Madeline and she loves it! It's just a cheap-o Walmart tee (under $5), but it looks so cute with good ole Frosty on it. I was thinking of making a few more of these for Christmas ornaments. Really all I would need to do different is add a little starch when I'm done. I think he would be sweet on a little Winter bag too!
I'm sure you all will have great ideas for how to use this little guy! Please share your ideas in the comments section, I would love to hear them! And remember any projects completed (or in progress) with patterns from The Handmade Dress can be shared in our flicker group. There are so many cute things over there, lots of good inspiration!
Thank you all for all of the well wishes this past week while we were sick! We are all feeling much better now and it seems that things are calming down a bit around here. We finally have a Christmas tree and the children are definitely in the Christmas spirit. So as Maddie would say "Merry Miss-mas"!

Super cute. It would make a nice gift topper/tag too. I wonder if I could make it? Hmmm.

That is adorable! I can picture it now on a cute little gift bag, doubling as an ornament later. :) I will have to try it, someday. Too many projects on my list and not enough time. sigh. Glad you guys are feeling better. We just can't seem to get healthy at our house these days either. Thankfully we've missed the stomach bugs! Yuck, you poor thing!

Oh THANK YOU! Since I used your tutorials to finally figure it all out, I have fallen deeply in love with crochet (and even started a crochet blog which I have failed to update...hhmmm). I am so excited to make this little guy! :)

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
