DIY Projects, Playing Hard In The Woods & Campfires With Smores. Just a Few Highlights Of Our Weekend!!!

Wow, we have had a busy few days and going headstrong into a busy week.  So many projects and so little time seems to be my mantra.  I am going to give you a visual at some of the things I have been up to and will be bringing you upcoming posts on.

I am almost done with the school desk you will see below.  The little chair you see is a chair from my table and chair set as a child I am redoing them again. The picture with the blue paint is when I ripped of the old decals I had on them.  I am going to decoupage fabric onto both chairs and then paint the table either a turquoise or grape and put it up in my studio/sewing/craft room.

We also had to take time to play and play we did, I am not afraid to let my kids get dirty climbing and jumping on our land.  It’s nothing a hot bath can’t fix. Of course it’s great to end the day as a family seated around our fire pit with our dogs, husband playing the guitar and lots of smores.  Truly just a few of my favorite things that I am so blessed to be a part of.  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  What have you been up to?

One of the larger school desks I had as a kid that has suffered and needs a new life. Don’t worry already looking much better.

Priming the metal, don't mind the huge mess I work in with all my stuff.  I also recycle old tablecloths as drop cloths.

The woodpeckers are back in full force and it sounds like a housing development is going up.  We got to see some of their reno work up close and down low.
