{Beach Night}

It was a nice way to finish the weekend.

We went to the beach tonight.

It was breezy and a bit cold, but it didn't stop them from going in the water.

We flew kites and played in the sand.

(almost) Ready to start the week!                      

Pottery Barns and Mine...

Here is Pottery Barns $130.00 (a unit) bookcase.

That would be a total of $390.00 for this look. Yikes!

And here is the one I made for about $20.00.

 I didn't have the best light today to take the pictures, I even tried to manually lighten them. I just wanted to see it together and thought it looked pretty good so far!

I have been making a denim slip cover for the couch, maybe this will motivate me to get it done.

Dylan's bookshelf will be next. I'll try to take better pictures. :)

My Knock Off

I love this look...

Since the hefty price tag is not so lovely, I pulled out the big guns.

One down, two to go. I just have to sand it down and stain it.

Hopefully, I can get another one done and get them in the boys room. Cost me less than $20.00 to make. Happy :)

Caitlin's Birthday

My little Princess!

We celebrated Caitlin's birthday...Princess style :)

She got a Cinderella doll, princess phone, princess birthday book and a Barbie movie.

I made her the balloon tower and her felt crown the night before her big day. She loved both of them. I also made her little pink birthday sign in the first photo.

We didn't have a big party, just the family for dinner. Caitlin asked for mashed potatoes, I added green beans and a chicken for the rest of us :)

Then some pretty princess cupcakes.

She is the best little girl in the whole world!

Happy Birthday Princess!
