Time Out Spot

About a year ago, my husband found a great deal on eBay and bought me an embroidery machine so I could make personalized gifts for friends and other fun baby gifts. My kids and I have unusual names, so finding something personalized is pretty much impossible and paying for them is usually expensive! So having my own basic machine was a great idea!

I have personalized many items including burpers, bibs, quilts, clothing, towels and many more items. Check out some of my projects on my craft blog.
I recently wanted to create a “time-out” spot for my boys and found a flat chair pad at IKEA that was on clearance for $.49. Perfect! I knew I could embroider it to be just what I wanted!

Now each of the boys has a specific item that is designated as their time-out spot that can be moved into a different room, taken in the car or used at someone else’s house if needed. They are small, durable, able to be rolled up and a concrete visual for the boys.


It WORKS FOR US!

Do you have a specific time-out location or item for your kids?

Kama is a stay-at-home-mom to 2 very active toddler boys and is set to have #3 of unknown gender in October. She is looking forward to delivering this baby at home. She loves sewing, quilting and crafting when she finds a few minutes and isn't dead tired!
