Crafting

Just call me crafty, or thrifty, or just call me cheap! I've been busy making various things for the house lately. One reason is that I can't afford expensive decor- 2 is because I've found some cute ideas that I thought I'd try, and 3 is because I can't afford expensive decor! Here's a look at what I've made:



First, is a wreath hung in my hallway- this is made out of an old paperback novel.



Here are the girls silhouette's. I thought these were so cute. They are kind of hard to do, bc it was challenging to take great profile pictures of my squirmy girls, but I think you can see Halle on the top and Lily on the bottom.



Here's a view of my hallway, that not too long ago was completely empty. Now it's complete with console table from IKEA and wall hangings. I just have to spruce up what's on top of the table, I'm thinking a lamp would be good. But this is it for now.



Here are bow hangers in the girls bathrooms where we can clip on the many bows we've collected over the years. Halle painted these with me, so it was a fun project for us.




I recovered my dining room chairs- these used to have an off white cover on them- yuck!



And my last one is this cornice board. (Sorry it's a little dark) This is a large window in our kitchen. This was my hardest project- I went to Lowe's and got all of the wood cut and measured, used the drill and screwed together the pieces, then covered it with a curtain that I cut apart to match the other curtains hanging at our back door.

And a few other things I've made- with a little help! :)
