Week 19: stacker toy (September 15-21)
Week 20: Christmas tutu & everyday tutu 3 mo (September 22-28)
 
Now, because some of these crafts seem simple I have challenged myself by making multiples (wish me luck!!!)
 
Since Summer is right around the corner I had to plan my projects accordingly in order to maintain the goal of 20-in-20 (you may have to do the same).  Kaci is also trying to complete Baby Girl Nowak's nursery so all of the nursery projects are all scheduled within the 1st 10 weeks.
 
I hope these projects and this challenge will inspire  you to follow along or start your own!!! 
 
Coming up....Week 1!!!!!!



The Beginning....

Hey everyone!!! I am new to this whole blogging thing so....here goes nothin'.

My husband and I recently found out that we are going to be an Aunt & Uncle once again to a new niece!!!  For the time being I will refer to her as Baby Girl Nowak.


If any of you know my SIL (sister-in-law) Kaci, or myself for that matter, you know that we are super girly and Baby Girl Nowak will be no different!  So, naturally once Kaci revealed the gender I automatically started plotting all of the cute outfits, accessories, etc. I could make for her.  Our girlfriend Katy T. jokingly said you should do 20 outfits in 20 weeks.  Well Top...CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!!  Only instead of 20 outfits I will create 20 DIY projects in 20 weeks & post the weekly craft & progress on this here blog.  Why 20 you ask?  Well, in 20 short weeks Baby Girl Nowak will grace the world with her presence.  I only wish someone had challenged me 2 nephews & a niece ago-dang it!

Time's a tickin' so stay tuned.......
