Appliance Covers






A while ago I got tired of seeing all of my appliances, then I decided to make covers for them. I was also getting tired of the kitchen feeling like a college student's place it was time for it to end.  I found the fabric on sale at Joann's and lucked out that it was the end of the bolt so I got more fabric for a lower price.  I made covers for my blender, toaster, and kitchen aid.





The blender and toaster.

Kids Bedroom Redo






A couple of weeks ago my husband was on spring break and with me being 32 weeks pregnant we really couldn't go anywhere really far, so we decided that we will get the kids bedroom completely ready for this little one to come.  This picture is of what we started with on my daughter's side of the room, she had fun playing early in the day.  :)  The first thing we did was deep cleaned the whole room, we went through her toys and pulled out ones that she didn't play with anymore as well as clothes that are too small.






Aww much better :)  While we were cleaning the blinds in one of the windows fell and broke.  I was okay with it because I have had planned for a long time to make some curtains for the room.  I also have realized that this room is the brightest in the entire apartment so I need to also make sure that the curtains cut out a lot of light during the day so the baby could sleep.  I found this fabric:



I decided that it had both girl and boy qualities.  I also bought a panel that was on clearance that cuts out sun.  Then I went to work and made these:







My daughter loves them, and now I want to make her a quilt for her bed that has purple and green in it.  Her favorite color right now is purple as well and green is kind of the color that I'm trying to make happen in both the boy and girl side of the room.





Once again the before.





And after.  More parts of the room redo is coming soon.

Easter Doors



Very Similar to what I did here for St. Patricks Day, my daughter and I made Easter Eggs for our doors.  This time I even pulled out the glitter to give the project something different then last time.






This is my daughter's door, she did everything herself and put up the eggs where they are.





Here is a close up of some of the eggs that I put on our door.  It was tons of fun to make and we just used supplies that we had around the house.  Not to mention it brightens your door especially on those rainy Spring days.  :)
