What I've been up to



One of my goals for this 2010 year is to be more organized, to get things done and to be crafty. Well, apparently I had a baby and that stopped all thoughts, ideas, motivation to really do anything for that little "recovery" stage after the baby. Things are slowly getting on the move and I have so many ideas bookmarked that I cant wait to going on. So in saying that....here are a few things that I have started with.

The Laundry Schedule

Ok, so I understand that this may seem a bit, ummmm...out there, but I don't care (sorry to be blunt). I really do love the idea of having a schedule so I know exactly what needs to be done each day. It really was so easy to make, and I LOVE IT!!
The Categories are on magnets so you are able to move them around as you want from day to day.


DIY Candlesticks

So I can't take any credit for these...click here to see where I got the idea.
The only difference in mine is that I could not find the fence pieces that they talked about so I just got a piece of like 1x6 and cut it into squares and then Routered the edges. I have to give a huge shout out to my dad for helping. THANKS DAD!!
And of course I was so in the moment of doing them and getting them done that thats all I did...cut, sand, drill, and paint...
They are missing something don't ya think???

As soon as I get them all gussied up I will post pics again.
These are only three of the sizes we cut, they get biiGGER and I can't wait to show all of you.

These ones here are on my kitchen table and thats where I plan on keeping them, thats why I cut them that short.
