Fabric!!

Ahhhhh!! As I was posting my last post guess what came!?!?! My fabric for my pillows! Yay!

Sooo excited to see what they look like in person!! I ordered them from onlinefabricstore.com. Great prices and it came in less than a week!

Alright friends...I'm going to go open my package and see if I still love the fabric I chose!

Pictures to follow :)

Wooden trough

So here's my other project I made yesterday: a wooden trough!

I got the idea from hobby lobby. I saw a really cool wooden trough with handles but it was $30(!!!) Wayyy too expensive for me! So, I figured I could make one!

Here's how I did it:
I got a used pallet from my father-in-law (he works at a lumber yard) and ripped it apart (that took a lot of muscle!) Then I measured and cut 5 pieces. (2 long ones, 2 short ones and 1 long one for the bottom) then I nailed it together and stained it.

I think it came out pretty nice don't you think?

Mason jar wall art

Hey all!

Happy 4th!

So I've been busy crafting and I wanted to show you what I made!

I made 3 Mason jar wall art. Here's how I did it: I cut 3 pieces of wood that I had left over from my pallet. I painted them white and blue. Then I drilled two holes for the wire. I attached the Mason jars to the wood with the wire.
Finished product: 3 bucks!!

I would say that's pretty cheap :)

I plan on hanging them in my living room...what do ya think?!
