How I Became Shared Jelly

When my husband and I first got married we used to get messages on our answering machine for "Shared" and "Jelly" instead of Jared and Shelly. The first time we chuckled a little over it and by the fourth or fifth time, we decided the name should stick somewhere. And so, I've been sharing jelly all over the internet since. Enjoy!

Kid Slippers

Found a cute pattern online for making little kid slippers at Made by Rae.  My kids didn't want dragons - although I thought they were awesome.  So I took them to the fabric store and let them each pick out their own fabric.  They were so excited and they love that they got to pick out their own designs.  I've finished 3 pairs, 1 more to go (the baby doesn't need any yet).  Here's a sample of how they turned out.  
Now their little tootsies aren't so cold on our tile floor.  (Plus they like to slide around in them)  The only thing I did different is that I used suede for the bottoms and lined the bottom with fleece.  She used sherpa material, but I already had the suede and it worked out great.
