The Struggle Is Real

Every mother out there knows that taking your little ones to the grocery store isn’t always the best idea. Especially if it’s walmart where there’s toys. 😀 I can’t say our little guy gets to bad. He is pretty good at knowing that we can’t buy the whole store, but like all humans it’s a natural urge to want everything you don’t have.  So we usually take a quick stroll through the toy aisle and that makes his day.  In regards to me buying the whole store I’ve decided to let him manage his own money. So every time we go to the store he could buy what he wants from the money he saved up. It’s a double whammy.. 😀 I save money and he learns to manage his own.

DIY Wallet Craftiness

So when I told him about my little plan, he was so excited he asked me to make him a wallet. How cute 🙂 !! This is where my crafty side kicked in. I have a whole cupboard of fabric that we picked through, and off we went making this super cute little wallet.

PS. Fast forward a few days…The first time we went out to goodwill he was so excited about the toys he was tootling with he lost his wallet..YEP. 🙁

We  cut out our squares and added some details to it

Stitched the two squares together

Sewed on the zipper

We turned it inside out and stitched up the two sides.

and don’t forget to secure the sides.

and that’s That. Quick and cute.

Since he lost this one maybe for our next project we’ll do a kids duct tape wallet or something.. 😀 Comment below if you have any ideas for his next wallet 🙂
