Projects

I feel most alive when I am doing something creative: sewing, scrapbooking, decorating, singing, crafting, painting, playing music, (and recently) making bread- I love it all! I was recently inspired by Jodi's blog to 'treasure hunt' at thrift stores for items to be remade. It is a perfect outlet for my need for creativity and my need for shopping, which doesn't go away even when I am super busy.

I found this owl for $2. It was an oak color. Hope it looks cute in Madelynn's bedroom!

Also inspired by Jodi (thanks for all the great ideas Jodi~ I love reading your blog~!), snack bags. One for Daddy Man, Muffin, and Cousin Noak.

And from Muffin's "acativity" time we have a pom-pom giraffe, bear, bunny and my sorry attempt at a monkey. I think I have just as much fun as Muffin during "acativity" time.
