My projects!

I've been feeling incredibly crafty and creative lately. It's awesome!! :-) It's fun and gives me something very productive to do while at home! I guess now I am a Domestic Goddess. Lol. I've been working on a few projects lately and have a few simmering "on the back burner". I recently finished a project N started when we lived at our first apartment. He found this glider out by the dumpster and being the genius he is, he saw great potential in it. It lived on our balcony for many months while N took it apart, sanded it down, and fixed all the little problems. It then was transported to our new apartment and the work continued. We even picked out a cushion for it! Of course like most fix-up projects it needed paint. It took a while before we were able to chose a color that would work in our home and reflected our style.

I haven't done a lot of painting in my time so I thought now would be a great and perfect experience! Who knew I was a perfectionist when it came to painting! Lol! It was a lot of fun paiting that chair. N helped me out a little with the painting, but I think he knew how much fun I was having with it so he stayed out of the way. :-) Now our beautiful glider is sitting in our living room! Thalia loves the glider!! Haha! She has made her claim on it and gives us rather mean looks when we try sitting on it. She's too cute!


Wow...I'm sitting here waiting for all my pic to download from the camera to my computer and it's taking forever. I really need to go through all the pics and delete some. :-) Ah! Here we go...






This past weekend H came over so we could make a diaper cake for a baby shower she was throwing. What's a diaper cake you ask? Well...umm...it's a "cake" made out of diapers. :-) Pretty much you roll diapers together place them in the shape of a cake and decorate with different things the mom-to-be and new baby will need. We decided that if someone was ever going to try to make one that we should warn that person that you will NEED 2 PEOPLE! Lol. They don't tell you how hard it is to put that thing together! I think we were rather proud of ourselves though! The cake was sooo cute!
