Projects

Just a few projects I've done the past few weeks. . .

My mom made the girls some darling skirts - so I made some fabric flowers to match.  These things are my new favorite hair accessory - I think they are so darling and so easy to make!  I learned how to do it from my friend Stephanie on her blog Somewhat Simple.

I think this denim one is my favorite - I love it!

Another project we finally got around to is painting the den - Matt did most of it during his spring break.  And I found some curtains I LOVE!  They look ALOT better in real life - you can't really see the print in this picture.  I bought the curtains but they weren't long enough and had a ruffle thing on the top.  So I bought the matching valance, cut it up, and added it to the bottom, then re-did the top. . . blah, blah, blah.  Anyway, I love them!

Kaden had his spring concert (excuse me, I mean PERFORMANCE - Kaden kept reminding me) this week - "A Musical Menu".  He had to have an apron - so I made one just his size.  It's super simple and made from scrap material, but he loved it so it's a success in my book!

Making his apron reminded me of this darling idea I saw and wanted to do.  So I grabbed some dishtowels at the dollar store and made these artist aprons for all my kiddos!  Ok - well, I made one.  But I'll get around to the rest one of these days!

I also made some felt flowers and stitched them onto some flip flops for Bai - but I can't find them for the life of me.  So you'll just have to use your imagination. 

I love having a project to work on - what better or more fun way to procrastinate cleaning toilets or doing dishes?!!
