This time I wanted to change it up a bit. A few weeks back I took a 2x4 and cut into random lengths. I didn't have a particular project in mind but I had the wood and the saw was right there so figured I would cut first plan later :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday I decided to throw together this cute little project because I'm trying to reorganize my living room shelves.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">What you will need:</div><div style="text-align: center;">6 blocks of 2x4 cut at random lengths</div><div style="text-align: center;">brown paint</div><div style="text-align: center;">scrapbook paper</div><div style="text-align: center;">school glue</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> I sanded down the edges of my blocks then painted the sides and fronts brown. I don't paint the entire front, just enough around the edges that my paper will cover. I measured my paper then cut it with some decorative scissors and glued it on. I just use regular ole school glue, it works just as well as modge podge and it's less expensive.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFJ7ki9UTLhWTngyMVqVVZpnvcrcfHf-MZ-Ho3uqfCovWgElOCYYe7Kht8fe6oUkhfjd-3V0qgyY4W5XvrDZVtQVvNbSn4Xu8nM00VdZf1nxQTQfRH5AShY-p8yQXjuKO9o3S8OaTSyFgj/s1600/100_2756.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" m$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFJ7ki9UTLhWTngyMVqVVZpnvcrcfHf-MZ-Ho3uqfCovWgElOCYYe7Kht8fe6oUkhfjd-3V0qgyY4W5XvrDZVtQVvNbSn4Xu8nM00VdZf1nxQTQfRH5AShY-p8yQXjuKO9o3S8OaTSyFgj/s320/100_2756.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Slowly but surely this room is coming together.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I threw this little cutie together in about 10 minutes :) I had a leftover 1x4 that I spray painted with my new favorite watermelon color. Then I cut out a stencil on my Silhouette and painted on my words. Next I drilled a couple holes and hung it by some twine.

</div><div style="text-align: center;"> So this morning I decided I needed to do something productive. My sis is coming in one week and I am racing to try and finish the bathroom before she gets here. What a marathon this bathroom has been, but I'm almost ready to post the final pics!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">A few months back I read a post from <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2009/02/make-shades-out-of-mini-blinds.html">Little Green Notebook</a> where she turned her mini blinds into roman shades. Genius I tell ya! Well the mini blinds in my bathroom were grrooosss, they were in the house when we bought it and had collected dust fooreevver. So first I laid them out on my bathroom floor. Making sure to let them all the way out.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtXVTcnlJLXI5hc-5XvvKIam2r3_i7FLXGKfgMGFTU4SZncjUv2z-ds85K7vHt3PKawxtrfPi2HLCbjbXhbdArzzBxU80C31RBlPBTPTI7LxOxtA-FxoPe2LLgO75krXNY9wbb88eIvHtz/s1600/100_2507.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtXVTcnlJLXI5hc-5XvvKIam2r3_i7FLXGKfgMGFTU4SZncjUv2z-ds85K7vHt3PKawxtrfPi2HLCbjbXhbdArzzBxU80C31RBlPBTPTI7LxOxtA-FxoPe2LLgO75krXNY9wbb88eIvHtz/s320/100_2507.JPG" t8="true" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then following the directions from above, I slipped all but 6 of the slats off. My window is 52" tall and I wanted a little extra so I placed my slats 8" apart. I had this green curtain hanging in there already so I just cut it to fit. Next I hot glued my slats down. *The tutorial says dont use hot glue but I did and it worked fine* Be careful when gluing your slats not to glue the lift cord and at the top make sure that you can still slip your blinds back in their brackets.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0i3OwDsudZl_iyZhzhRt2fnRF63jXilGmzijSuzq6FkD65l3mc2BE-QL-Y3yAgpMq_EB3hujlwOBkV6bLcERe8pwhtHqgk4H7-erby_iufsO9OHkWBsWwCNEJ-Sa_cSIDhZ384mB0DZkX/s1600/100_2509.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0i3OwDsudZl_iyZhzhRt2fnRF63jXilGmzijSuzq6FkD65l3mc2BE-QL-Y3yAgpMq_EB3hujlwOBkV6bLcERe8pwhtHqgk4H7-erby_iufsO9OHkWBsWwCNEJ-Sa_cSIDhZ384mB0DZkX/s320/100_2509.JPG" t8="true" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here they are! I have to say I'm pretty satisfied with them!

So a few weeks back I saw this adorable idea for a wreath and thought that it would make a great gift idea for my sons preschool teacher. So I took myself down to HobLob and got my supplies.<br />
<br />
<div align="center">I found this cute little apple over in the wood cutouts and I just took my Sharpie and wrote the preschool name on it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9DFIopneObZxGWXSdmkiix7royayCluMz1s8xJecgWWE_SYbXVRMp1KKYn0_-1YgkCXCOCemuVFzdmXWcBrFy-vU0Zw4V0NbaQr_A2nOaB4qEvptOQlELCeCLPhQXnJEk1sQpU_IlAIKv/s1600/P1010045.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9DFIopneObZxGWXSdmkiix7royayCluMz1s8xJecgWWE_SYbXVRMp1KKYn0_-1YgkCXCOCemuVFzdmXWcBrFy-vU0Zw4V0NbaQr_A2nOaB4qEvptOQlELCeCLPhQXnJEk1sQpU_IlAIKv/s320/P1010045.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then I found some embroidery hoops and I only used the inside small hoop and the inside large hoop so I still have the outside hoops to use on another project.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="240" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0iy_JiZvSF95uGQ4NAdpv_UE8OaPYNKGWyR2WTYtN6p9Qhkny2Rxn9yuESgosqXwEJGU8H9nKpjHHwUPIqUFIKatg8_EtqEcZ4ytcxbP777HP8xcXUawky5X478CAEqfM-MPWNpszZtVm/s320/P1010047.JPG" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> My advice is to paint your hoops before you start your project. I did not do this and I am having to go back with my sharpie and black out all the areas you can see. I only used about 50 crayons so you do not need to buy this box of crayons but I wasn't sure how many I would need and you can never have to many crayons at our house. I had this blue ribbon leftover from making hair bows.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicaLYbvS_kmsQyZ24uhW21Fy_bOo9upfVdSH5QzxwNIrNmIBJVp28im-yc9F5jMvTES7Gx-5YhD1nnP541h4fqX2NyfjPNGHNJXyLqsVooqAyVllLaRFLfvQzxnjclDfLn4BPDX_qhAqtP/s1600/P1010049.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicaLYbvS_kmsQyZ24uhW21Fy_bOo9upfVdSH5QzxwNIrNmIBJVp28im-yc9F5jMvTES7Gx-5YhD1nnP541h4fqX2NyfjPNGHNJXyLqsVooqAyVllLaRFLfvQzxnjclDfLn4BPDX_qhAqtP/s320/P1010049.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> Sorry I didn't take any pictures of the process, I got into it and kept on going. I glues my ribbon on first and then my apple on top of that. Next I started gluing my crayons, it took me <strike>50 thousand</strike> several attempts and a few crayons had to sacrifice their lives for me to figure out the correct spacing but once I got flowing it went pretty fast. All in all I only spent about 7 dollars for the whole thing. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdfTcykJzC3bykChD_PnD7XmMhdzQ1_YZe_U1sQgSXt3lYeAYh5N3beYvbKRO8n7T0KLdg7GIL6AWGTMNPlxxMwqb-enI1l2oBROWFCIjru9Bb8zM05M-ZId__Oj0qf8yQdJLQUtzUJTsP/s1600/P1010050.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdfTcykJzC3bykChD_PnD7XmMhdzQ1_YZe_U1sQgSXt3lYeAYh5N3beYvbKRO8n7T0KLdg7GIL6AWGTMNPlxxMwqb-enI1l2oBROWFCIjru9Bb8zM05M-ZId__Oj0qf8yQdJLQUtzUJTsP/s320/P1010050.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am linking it up <a href="http://www.domestically-speaking.com/2010/11/final-countdown-to-thanksgiving-party.html">here</a>.</div>Twice Thriftyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09079672878200299164noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678969035692796050.post-15122962458758673082010-11-16T11:13:00.000-08:002010-11-16T11:13:37.553-08:00Trim For Lil Sis<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So this weekend the hubby and I decided to be somewhat productive and get Lil Sis's chair rail put up. When we finally got started it only took about 30 minutes b/c the chair rail has been sitting painted in the building for months. Although it did not go off without a few hitches, like when the DVD player fell off the dresser and hit me in the back. Fun Fun. I still haven't filled in the nail holes but I am so excited to have a project done around here!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Well my twin sissy was moving in with us so she picked a blue for the walls and we painted the trim cream. When baby sis was born I wasn't ready to lose my guest room ( twin sis got married and moved out) so I just stuck a crib in the corner and put a bedding set that matched the blue. Well finally this summer when Lil Sis was ready for a big girl bed I redid the room.<br />

Eventually the girls will get this room just because it is the biggest of the 2 rooms. When we first bought the house this room was a living room and we knew that we needed another bedroom so we pulled up the carpet and built a closet. The hardwood is in bad shape and will be on the list of things to redo. Also the living room sized ceiling fan is going to go.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Well back in the summer I got this wild idea to paint the kids rooms and get new bedding. Well after I got this green on the wall I realized it was a little more grass green then I wanted but I had enough sense to know not to ask hubby to repaint so it is staying put for now. We also have chair rail in the building ready to be put up but it just hasn't made it yet. I got a new rug but I don't have any pics of it yet, hopefully when we get the floors redone we can get rid of the rugs!</div><br />

I am going to post pictures of what it all looks like now but oh how I wish you could have seen it when we first bought it, to say it was a dump is an understatement! But alas all of those pictures are not digital and only sit in an album for us to ponder over. As we go through each room I will try and describe the sad pitiful condition it used to be in.<br />
<br />
This is the living room/ dining room. Sorry a couple are from my <strike>little</strike> big guys birthday party :)<br />

No worries it's all changing soon! When we first bought this house this room was actually a dining room and kitchen. The house had 2 kitchens so the one in this room had to go. Well I have to go feed the kiddos some lunch, more to come later!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
