This month is flying... so much going on! I did the most exhilerating thing this week though... I gutted every single room in my house. Okay, so I don't have that many rooms, but as of right now I know EXACTLY what is in every closet and drawer and corner. I tossed so much stuff and it feels great. My kids have no idea how much of their stuff I got rid of and you know what... they NEVER will! I'm making a solomn promise right here, right now--- no more Happy Meal toys will ever enter this house again!!! I'll buy them, but I will toss them before they come through the front door. NO MAS!!!
Okay, so now that I have a super organized home... it's time to get busy!!!
First project... LOVE NOTE CHALK BOARDS for Valentines Day. Fun, huh? The wood is cut and sitting by my feet as I type. I'm thinking of making them for my children's teachers. I'll keep you posted and take pictures of the project along the way.
The boards are 22 inches by 12 inches. Nice big boards for lots of lovey dovey notes!
Now where did I put the darn chalk paint?
Since you're done with your house, please (pretty please) come do mine. While you're here you can give me sewing lessons and teach me how to decorate! :o)

Oh my gosh...how I wish I was one of your kids' teachers! You always make the best gifts for them! Those boards sound so fun!

I stumbled across your blog and would love to know "Where you get all the adorable outfits and bows for your daughter?" Do you handmake them? I would love some more information!
Thankyou
