kids decor

z & p have moved downstairs and like their new rooms.  while i was on maternity leave i got creative with some paint in each room.  i couldn't decide at what height to do the line in z's room so i drew both, then decided it was pretty cool that way.  his 'theme' is maps, so i got places of where aaron & i have either lived or been to and we hung an old school map on one wall.  p wanted polka dots, so away i went with the string and chalk.  i still need to get her chalk board and an art board made & hung up for her.  then z, p, and e each got to paint a picture for their rooms (well the girls got to do 2 as they seem to like painting more) z did a lake with people swimming, sharks, and airplanes (1 might be a helicopter-i don't remember) p did houses and e-well she had fun with her 2 canvas'.

plaque frames

simple but pretty little frame i made.  8x8 total size with photo corners to hold a 5x7 picture.  great gift for mothers day (it is just around the corner)  $10

Now that we have FINALLY had Christmas at mom's house I can show you what I made for my sister and her fiance. I didnt want something with glass with all the mosture in a bathroom but I wanted her to be able to change the pics as she got different ones. I really like the way they turned out and think I will do some for a baby room in pinks, purples, blues and greens. Look for those later. I am also thinking of some trinket/memory boxes. Small to sit on a dresser and some bigger to put all of babys out grown clothes that you just cant part with in.
