BOO!

Happy Halloween family and friends! Trunk or Treat brought us out this frightening evening and we couldn't help but share. Enjoy all the tricks and the treats and please, please dress up. I don't know how anyone can stand to pass up a holiday where costumes are involved.

Love,

Look What I Made

...with a little help :)

I haven't done one of these posts in quite awhile. But thanks to my Mom, some very good friends, and the opportunity we have to own a home, I've been able to get my creative on. I'm in love with all of these recent projects. What do you think?

The second bedroom, Peanut's future room, the Peter Pan room, is 98% finished. My Mom helped me make this incredible tipi while she was here. I wanted one that fit in the room but that was big enough to fit at least three people for stories. All it needs now are some twinkle lights and pillows. As for the wall over the bed, I just need to make peter and friends permanent on the wall and then paint the Big Ben silhouette around the clock at the head of the bed. First star to the right and straight on till morning. I LOVE this room!

Mom also helped me make this pillow...ok so she ended up doing the whole thing here, but I watched attentively so I could make another when I find the time. I think I could re-create the piping. So I participated right? I made the cute baby if that counts for anything :).

As for the bar menu here, no I have not become a drinker, but I have become an official chalkboard artist. Some great friends of mine were hired to be wedding planners. So they in turn, kindly hired me to be the local chalkboard artist. I was in heaven sitting down to draw for a few hours. I haven't really done that for years. I think it turned out awesome...and yes it was all done free hand. 

Last but not least (for the time being), is the finished TV stand. The living room needed a pop of color and I am so pleased at the finished product. It was a tough choice between green and blue but as always, green won out in my little world. Excuse the diaper and mess in the corner. There are a lot of diapering supplies and extra miniature clothes littered around the house these days.
