Frame Revamp!

I have been into a crafty mood lately and I had an old frame in my tote of craft stuff, so I decided to revamp it. I always have ideas but then am too scared to try them. But I got up courage and figured if it looked terrible I would just stick it back in the tote. :) I sanded off the words and then put a little bit of cream paint to see if I wanted to paint it cream or the green that we painted our wall. This is what it looked like before...

 

I gave it a few coats of the green I had from painting our bedroom wall and coated it with some clear enamel. I painted a piece of cardboard and put "peace" on it. 

Before I put it all together I made a little yo-yo flower and glued it onto the frame. This is what it looks like now! I think it look pretty good. It is nice and simple but has a little character with the flower. My next project is going to be an entry table...maybe :)

Two Months!

Wow! I've been married for 2 months! I can't believe it. My husband is the sweetest and most understanding person I know. I love him! We haven't been up to much. I am still trying to get our apartment organized and finding a place for everything. I have been looking for an entry table/sofa table for by our door. It is impossible to find one that is reasonably priced and in Utah. I found the perfect one in REXBURG :( but that is a little too far for us... BOO!! I want it! Hopefully we can find something similar here.

I am trying to do a garden but the weather is still pretty unpredictable. For example Saturday was 70 degrees and then Sunday we woke up to about 6 inches of SNOW and it snowed the entire day! A few plants died... but I have one strong cucumber plant and some radishes and carrots! I will plant a few more seedlings here in a few weeks.

I also made a necklace during conference. It took a long time to decide which beads to use but I think it came together nicely and it looks pretty cute!


Nothing else to report. . . :)
