Slowing Down, Enjoy, Create, Keep it Simple!

This My Girls & Me blog is no longer a place to find out how to purchase oilcloth and oilcloth products.  This blog is exclusively for sharing fun creative ideas with oilcloth, fabric, etc.  We encourage you to slow down, enjoy the people around you, create things that make you happy, and simplify your world, focusing on what really matters most!

These 20"X15"X6" bags are SUPER!! So many uses, so many pattern choices, sooo CUTE!! Just wipe clean if needed. Perfect for wet things, and anything! Each one is lined with a contrasting oilcloth pattern! Love them!

Get Cute for Back-to-School!

If you are looking for CUTE - here it is!!! These oilcloth back packs are so fun, bright and functional! Perfect for the Preschool/Kinder student or the experienced Elementary school student. They are a generous 15' X 11" X 4.5" size, with strong padded straps. Available in these cute patterns, plus pink on white Polka Dots and black on white Paradise Toile, which are not pictured. They are a bargain at $38 each!

The new tall lunch/snack sacks are perfect pared with these backpacks. They slip right inside the backpack, and we have a large choice of patterns to match exactly or coordinate. The snack sack is tall, so water bottles, etc. fit perfectly. The Velcro flap and strap handle are perfect for young hands to navigate. Once the snack is gone, the sack folds up and tucks away easily. The price is great at $15 each. Call us 800-997-8823 toll free or stop by "Mums" at 239 E.

Cute Patriotic Clutch Purse

How cute is this oilcloth clutch that was featured in a recent issue of a popular home design magazine. The pattern is called Cafe Check in red, and we have this vintage print available on line at www.MyGirlsandMe.com (page down to the Country Fun selection) or stop by the store at "Things in a Room" 239 E. Main in Fredericksburg, TX. Our oilcloth is $10.00 per yard, and I have a very large selection of reduced price remnants. All remnants are priced well below the cut yardage price, and they are great for cute crafty projects like this patriotic clutch! This idea is perfect for a first-time sewing project or a "just for fun" summer project. Please share any of your ideas with me in the comments below!

Nature's Calling YOU! Recycle & Reuse!!!

Nature IS calling us all. We need to be responsible and "recycle and reuse" as much as possible. Once you start, it is really easy to develop a habit of RECYCLING AND REUSING!

These shoppers are one way to start that good habit!

We love these shopping bags!! They are made from recycled water bottles. They are reusable, strong and large, with pockets and dividers inside! They can be sanitized since they are made from a wipe clean product. BUT, most of all ---- THEY ARE SO CUTE!!! Come by
