DIY Style

My mom and I completed a big project while she was in town!

It took a lot of measuring...



ironing..



and sewing...


until they were done!


Here are the before and after pics.  Pretty major facelift, right?









They were a lot of work and I could not have done them without my mother's master seamstress skills, but we saved about $250 by going the DIY route.  Thank you, pinterest!  And thank you, Mom!

Painting Fun

With this crazy summer heatwave, we've had to figure out things to do inside instead of braving the heat.  Soo many fun ideas on Pinterest!  We used this idea to make some puff paint the other day.  The girls loved it!

It was easy, kept the girls entertained, and I had all the ingredients on hand.. that's my kind of fun!
