My Projects

For the last month or so I have been in “project” mode.  It all started with a diaper cake that I made for Sarah’s (Kevin’s sister) baby shower.DSCN1382 Once we spray painted the “G” I was hooked.  Since then, I have spray painted pencil holders, picture frames and candle holders, oh and a board from a project you’ll see below.   After I conquered the spray paint, I  went for regular paint and made these:DSCN1420 I painted 4 white canvases to match some of the colors in the girls’ bathroom and then had them put their handprints on them.  I love it and can’t wait to see it on the wall!  After this, I discovered Mod Podge and I’m in love.  I have searched and searched for a picture that shows the “before” of this sign.  It was cream and had “Kitchen” written in green.  It worked in our old house, but not so much now.  So I found this great idea for my laundry room and turned the sign into this:DSCN1418 The girls’ socks are constantly getting mixed up and there are always oddball socks just lying around the laundry room.  Now they will hang where I can see them and hopefully reacquaint them with their match!

I’m not sure what project I will attempt next.  I have a few things that I want to do for our classroom this summer, but for now I will keep on searching other blogs for new and creative ideas!
