New Bow Holder

My super awesome friend gave me this old frame for Christmas.  I finally got around to refinishing it last week.  I decided to use it in our bathroom to contain Kyla's bows (her other one was too small and just not as cute as this one) so I put chicken wire in it.  Works great! 
Of course, I added a little vinyl to it:

 I really enjoyed that my friend came and did this project with me.  It was fun to visit while we 'worked'.

Mason Jar Foaming Soap Dispenser

Made this for my kitchen.  I used a pump from a bath and body works soap and an old jar I had from Alfredo sauce.  Idea came from a tutorial on Life with Laura and John made a few modifications.  He used his hole saw and drill instead of the metal clippers to make the hole and he trimmed the inside plastic off for me, too.  Really he did most of the work.  (He loves me)  I used black plastic spray paint to paint the lid and pump, let it dry for a day and it works great!  It is much prettier than my old plastic dispenser!!

Easter Grass

This is my new Easter decoration:
I used wheat for the grass seed. I let the kids help with the planting and they've had fun watching the grass grow.

I found this group of pots at a yard sale...
it was orange, so I used some spray paint to change the color...gotta love spray paint!

A Little more Organized...

I found this spice rack at a yard sale...$2. So I cleaned it up...and organized my eyelets that have needed some serious organization. (I seriously considered putting my buttons in these) I still need another spice rack to two....maybe I'll make it out to a few more yard sales this year....I need some serious organization in my craft room!!
I love that it spins and I can set it up on a shelf for storage and quickly pull it down and work with it on my table.

Redone Basket for the Baby

I found this basket at the D.I. for $1.
I replaced the ribbon... And now it is perfect to put on the baby dresser to hold the burp clothes I've been making :)



Now I need to get the dresser ready...
