New Dresses

I absolutely LOVE how these turned out. The girls looked so cute all matchy matchy. I made headbands and hair clips for the girls too.

I was busy today..

I also made a few other blocks sets like some of the ones I made last year. I have a couple other projects with the paint drying almost ready for vinyl

No crib for his bed..

I was wanting a manger this year, but forgot about making it until I realized I had the Christmas Sharing time in Primary. So I whipped this baby up this week and actually displayed it at RS on Tuesday night too.
This is our new Christmas Tradition. For the month of December the girls will have to do service, be nice to each other, and do what they are told and they will earn pieces of straw to put in the manger. Hopefully they will have the manger full enough by Christmas to make a soft bed for Baby Jesus to sleep on.

JOY to the World

Look at my fabulous new Christmas decor for my front room. I got the idea from HERE at Shanty 2 Chic. They have some fabulous ideas over there. I couldn't find the smaller candlestick they used on the O, so I had to use three of the same size.

My next project

Look at my new shelf in all it's dusty glory. It's being painted in the garage and is almost done .

My First Refinish

Remember this bench.
I picked it up from DI really cheap. I knew it could look great with some new paint.

Here it is now. I still need to put a new cushion on it. I totally forgot to get some when I went to the fabric store yesterday. But it still looks great.

Take a look-see

I love the Shanty 2 Chic blog. They have great ideas and are the inspiration for some of my most recent projects and my new love for spray paint. They had people post links for some of their Spray Paint Projects...WOW. I have alot more ideas and projects to add to my list.

I {love} my NEW (used) Lamp

It still needs a finial, but I love it. it's amazing what a can of spray paint can do. Next project...the shelf it's on. Picture it black and maybe with fabric mod podged on the top of it. I am loving all these crafty decorating blogs. So many ideas not enough time (or money) to make everything I want.
