Refurbishing an old chair…

Scott defiantly did more work on this chair than me!

He couldn’t believe I bought this chair to redo, and he know that I would need his help too. So for a few month is sat in the garage, then I bought the fabric, then sanded it all, then is sat there for another month. Then Scott painted it, and I steal wooled the whole chair, then Scott clear coated it. He also put the cushion on for me!

Then ta, da it was DONE!!!

DIY Glittery Hair Bow Clips

I wanted to make a bow for Payton to wear during the Christmas program at Church. So I ended up at Hobby Lobby and found this fake vinyl leather in different glittery color sheets. I only bought 3 sheets and it made 9 bows. I ended giving the rest away to some of my friends. They are so cute all you need is to cut them out, put together, hot glue and clips!

The morning of her program she put her dress on and I of course thought her dress needed a little black on it, since her bow had black on it. So I called my sister and she told me how I could sew black ribbon to her dress. It ended looking great!

Happy New Year 2015!!!

Bringing in the new year!

For the 1st time at home, it was kinda weird I must say..

I didn’t have any decorations so I quickly made some with things I had around.

1. A plain bottle spray painted with liquid adhesive and added gold glitter and then applied a clear coat.

2. I had these mirror ball ornaments that I just added them to a glass jar. Then Printed this New Years little sign.

Well, that’s how we bring the party! Payton kept asking if it was midnight yet? Poor girl fell asleep about 20 minutes before midnight.

Everyone had a good time and the kids stayed up later and watched movies.

We hope the new year brings everyone Health, Happiness and a Deeper love of our Savior.

DIY chalkboard (days until)

A few weeks before Christmas I made 10 of these Chalkboards! Of course Scott cut them out for me and sanded them and I painted them with chalkboard paint, it did take quite of few coats! Then added the white vinyl lettering. But I think they turned out wonderful, and I’m already using mine..
