Project #5

My fifth and final project for awhile is a laptop case.  Janome and I created this a few weeks ago.  This is my last project to share and it is the end of Janurary.  For the month of Feburary, Valentine's Day month, I will share things I love. 

For the record, something killed a chicken today... I don't love things that kill chickens! 

Project #4

Our latest project was a replica of the Mutchler Center.  Halfpint had to turn a Capri Sun box into the Mutchler Center for a school project.  With a little tan paint, some green fleece, aluminium foil, cardboard, and yellow puff paint, we created the Mutchler Center.  She also had to interview a staff member and type a paragraph report.  She informed me that she would be graded on a 1,2,3 scale.  As our finishing touch, we added a Hot Wheel car to the parking lot and she thinks that might move her from a 2 to a 3. 

Repurpose #3

For Christmas, my brother gave us an old, rustic, saved from an old farmstead, single trees.  Well, it just happened that my repurpose book had a picture of a single tree attached to the ceiling above a bed.  So guess what, we did it!  BL is still a little skeptical about the heavy, solid, object falling on him while catching his beauty sleep.  But I reassure him that more people die in car wrecks everyday, then falling single trees.

I think we need a brown cowhide pillow... sounds like a project for the wonder machine, JANOME!

Project #2

Janome (my new amazing sewing machine) and I are becoming ONE!  I recycled some old jeans into these cute little bags that hold my knitting and crocheting supplies.  I love the big ric-rac, it covers uneven seams... not that Janome would ever let that happen.  She is awesome!

Repurpose Project #1

I received a book for Christmas that has repurpose project and ideas. I love it! It is full of amazing ideas. I also have an addiction with the Pinterest website. The combination of the two inspire me to find and repurpose junk! So, feast your eyes on project #1!

One old window, a little chicken wire, 7 old wooden spools, and TA DA, a new jewelery organizer. Eat your heart our Picka Sistas!

Pirates

We attended our annual Huggins Christmas last weekend at Honey Creek Resort. We enjoyed seeing and visiting with the whole family, swimming at the indoor water park, and eating wonderful soup. The kiddos liked going to the game room with Aunt Mary, while the big kiddos played cards and chatted. These mean Pirates loved the weekend!

Surfing

No, not water surfing... world wide web surfing. I found a few amazing sites, you will have to check them out as soon as you have a few extra minutes or if you have an office job... just kidding LJS.

http://www.thefancyfarmgirl.com/ This website has a camper to die for, if pink is your thing. Once you get to the website go to favorites, my vintage trailer. It is so cute... but I would not trade either of my beauties!

http://www.houseofturquoise.com/ Go to 2011 #3, beautiful house! I must confess, I have turquoise in every room in my house, but just a touch.
