But of course, then we went on leading our normal lives and didn’t have time to get to this extra little update until this Spring.
!” So yeah, if a nine year old is excited about one of my crafts, then that’s a big deal..I first made a few of these a couple of years ago for Kennedy’s birthday party, but I had to bring this craft out again for the bedroom makeover we’ve been doing for her because they just make any space look fun and festive and just generally awesome – for pennies!
And it’s one of the least-frustrating crafts that you can do.If you’ve made these before, then you know why I’m so enthused about them.If not, oh my goodness are you ever about to love me!.
First of all, they’re so easy that I didn’t even make these this time.I let Kennedy do all the work and take all the credit and I just snapped some pictures while we did a little back deck crafting.
So that’s saying something!.
Here’s how it goes!.The varnish has yellowed like crazy, so I don’t mind that some of the cleaners I’ve been trying have been taking off some of the top coat.
We’ll be sanding and staining again anyway.. And then we started ripping out walls.. Our master bedroom is an addition so behind the entrance wall is the original brick exterior wall.Well, how cool would that be to expose it and get to see that everyday?.
Answer: Pretty cool.. It’s going to take a lot of work.They pretty much went crazy with the demolition of the wall for the doorway, so lots of insulation and thick moldings will be needed, but I think I’ll somehow manage.. On a completely different note, I’ve been doing some baking, as have a lot of us I’m sure.. Last year I found myself wanting a “signature” fall recipe that I could make for my family that would just feel like home.
