<div style="text-align: center;">
I purchased this poster of our family off of <a href="http://www.papercoterie.com/">Paper Coterie</a>, I LOVED it!! But, how do I display it??? I got an inspiration off of PINTEREST...I saw this great tutorial that Monica and Jess did over at <a href="http://www.papercoterie.com/">East Coast Creative</a>. I needed it done on a smaller scales then they did...so I made a template out of poster board, traced it on my wood and cut it out with my jig saw. I also wanted it to have more color. I am in LOVE with grey and white right now..so I choose those colors to do my stripe. I wanted to use a molding to frame the picture to give it more of a framed look...I was just going to do white. But, my husband said it would look good yellow to contrast with the picture...WHAT?!?!?! What a great idea...check one for the husband. He was a very proud being color blind making a decision </div>

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My daughter was invited to a birthday party and she knew EXACTLY what she wanted to take for a gift. She wanted to give her sweet friend a magnet board. I had all the supplies already so it was a quick, fun gift for us to make. We called and found out the colors of her room and got to work.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">She wanted a picture of them to put on the board, so we printed on off and we were done.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">SHE LOVED IT!!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I am soooo excited I finally got it done. I went to Hobby Lobby (heaven on earth) and there knobs were 50% off...SWEET!!!! I decided to surprise my daughter and make her the necklace holder for her room. I was so excited of the selection of knobs, I had to choose from. After selecting the perfect few and I went home and got to work. It literally took my 20 min to have it finished. I cut my wood, make sure you choose a pieces of wood that is thicker then the length of you knob screws, so they don't poke out the back.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I painted it my daughters favorite color, and then sanded the edges and distressed it with "Distress Ink". It was perfect. After I measured the right length for each knob, I pre drilled my holes and screwed my knobs in...that took the longest. It turned out SOOOOOOO cute. It costed me less then $10.00 to make. My daughter was soooo excited to see it in her room when she got home. I guess, I will need to make me one next.</div><br />

So, I got creative to entertain my kids. I saw this Sharpie Tie Dye on <a href="http://pinterest.com/search/?q=sharpie+tie+dye">Pinterest</a> and wanted to try it out. I had some white tee shirts, I bought at the dollar store months ago. Then my daughter cleaned out her closet, so we had a lot of old white tanks to cut up. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I cut them all up into squares and we tie dyed the afternoon away. My kids had sooo much fun. My 3 year old loved scribbling his best masterpiece and watching the colors run. I don't know what we will do with the beautifully colored squares....maybe a quilt :0)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I found some great plans for some nightstand on my favorite blog <a href="http://ana-white.com/">ANA WHITE</a>, her blog has plans for anything. She makes it so easy to make with her step by step instructions. Anyway, I found a "Ladder Table" I really liked, also could be used for a stepping stool. I used those plans and just added length on the tables and came up with 2 great night stands. I was really excited how they turned out.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I bought at Walmart a 8 X 10 frame for 3.96. The fun thing using frames you have a ton of sizes to choose from, your options are endless.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I gave it a coat of black paint (don't you love my painting towel, it has many years of projects on it). You can also by the same frame already black in the store, but I love the distressed look, so I stick to the brown. When you apply the black paint, you don't have to make it perfect, because you are going to take the sand paper to it right after.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I bought some holiday themed paper and cut it to size. I am going to put the extra paper inside the frame so she can changed it each month. I just did it for the next 3 months, but you could easily do it for a Christmas gift and have a year worth of holiday paper cut and ready to go. Just throw in a dry erase marker and you are done. It was fun and easy and can't wait to give it to her!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have been getting into making furniture, it is so FUN, when you finally finish a project and can sit on the furniture and it feels sturdy, it is SO exciting!!! Here is my latest builds!!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I usually love to paint my furniture and then distress it, but this time I decided to stain it..I used the "Miniwax", Red Mahogany 225 and LOVED the way it turned out. I only used one coat, because it was deep and rich with just the one. Then used the "Miniwax" Polyurethane , clear semi gloss. I did 2 coats on the whole table and then an extra coat on the top.</div><br />

We got use to a bench to sit on, so we needed something to replace it. I knew, I wouldn't be able to find the exact size I needed, so I decide to make one. My husband was going to be out of town for a few days, so I got started. I found these great plans, <a href="http://ana-white.com/2010/04/furniture-plans-simple-outdoor-bench.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">here</span></a> on one of my favorite BLOGS, </div><div style="color: #26180c; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://ana-white.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Ana White</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">.</span> The plans were perfect, but it was too long, so I had to build it shorter. It took me a few hours, a little longer with lots of little hands helping. I LOVED The way it turned out and it fits PERFECT!!!!

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I found this beauty at Goodwill the other day for 39.99. I fell in love with the knobs. I couldn't wait to get it home and start playing. I got it home and started sanding it...then I needed to find out what color. It is going in my daughters (6 years old) room, so I let her choose...PINK, PINK, PINK......</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

She shares a bed with her older sister and now wanted a bed of her OWN. We didn't have room for a twin at the moment, so I decided to make a toddler bed. I found a great site that had a step by step tutorial on how to make one. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I went to Lowes the next day and got all the wood and started cutting, sanding, and painting. It was sooooo FUN and EASY to make. My husband didn't want to feel left out, he loves playing with power tools has much has I do, so he took the afternoon and helped build. And, now I have a happy 4 year old with her own space. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We have had it done for 4 days and she has slept in it once. Oh well, she has a great little space to keep her stuffies!!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I used <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Baby Blue</span> spray paint, by Valsper.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The funniest thing, I spent an hour priming and painting. Then I started to take the sander to it....if you listen right now you can her my husband saying, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU JUST GOT IT DONE". Then you can here my 11 year old saying "DAD YOU KNOW THAT SHE HAS TO GIVE IT HER ALI TOUCH". Enough said!!!</div><br />

And she was RIGHT, it was the cutest pillow I had ever seen and HAD to make one <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">RIGHT AWAY</span></span>!! I went to the store the next day and got all the fabric. It turned out so CUTE and it was SOOOOO EASY to make. Now, my 3 girls all want one, so back to the store I went and let them pick out their colors. We will see when I get theirs done.<br />

She is a great seamstress and has sewn my whole life. When I needed a dress for a dance, I would create this dress in my mind. My Mom and I would go shopping and I would tell her I want these sleeves on this bodice and the bottom to look like that but, like this in the front. I had the dress all planned out in my mind and they were always BEAUTIFUL!! My mom put up with my inventions and made her best dress to what I had in my mind. She was a saint. They always turned out perfect. She would work with my crazy designs, BUT when I got older I started putting the dresses designed with great material. She would always tell me, I can make the dress, but, I can't do anything about the material. We would shop and shop till I would finally find something that would work. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">OK, so my rambling has brought me to a point.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I bought a chair years ago that I have wanted to recover. I actually didn't have the exact material I wanted in my mind, but I did want a gray background, but it had to have RED and PINK flowers with a gorgeous green, if I could find it. I have looked and looked for this perfect material. I kept finding white backgrounds, with either red or pink flowers but not both. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My Mom came into town and we were once again looking around for THAT PERFECT fabric. After a few stores and no luck. We stopped by HOBBY LOBBY to look at there great collection of cotton duck with amazing prints.
