Let's get crafty for fall!

Today we had some fun creating a seasonal mantle banner! 

What you will need:

Scissors

Construction Paper

Hold Punch

Child Safe Paint

Paint Brush

Sharpie/Marker

Cut your paper and punch the holes

Paint your child's hand and place it on the cut paper. 

This gets messy especially with a little one.  Make sure to have your craft space spill protected.

(I think Ry had fun doing this)

I have come to the realization that not everything turns out perfect like Pinterest but it makes fun memories =)

I drew thin letters so you could still see his hand prints. 

I created two small tassels for the ends to cover up where the tape would go.

Finished product =)

Happy Fall Y'all!

Bedroom Project

I finally updated our bedroom! It was originally a dark red color and wasn't very appealing to the eye.

My husband was away for work last week and it was time to paint! 

1st coat of primer. 

(I left a little red so you could see just how awful it was)

2nd coat of primer

1st coat of color and it's already looking better! 

(If you're on a budget always look at the return paint section at any of your local hardware stores. I found this paint for half the price!)

Green frog tape removed and I'm happy! 

A few things... The letters I already had from our wedding and I thrifted the paintings for $5! 

That coat of paint made me really happy!
