My crafty projects

I had this lovely table and chairs given to me by a friend who was trying to find a good home for it, so I took it. I noticed though that the seats, being pressed wood, were really slippery when Carson climbed on them, so I decided to cover them, then, as I was covering them I thought how fun would it be if I turned the top into a chalkboard, so I did just that. Carson loves his table and chairs and spends a lot of his day playing with it. As you can see, he does not always use them in the most appropriate way. He truly is a little monkey, that is why you will notice foam tiles under the table so he has sort of a soft landing for when he falls.

I do have another project that I am working on, but it has turned out to be a lot harder than I imagined. My friend Brandy and I decided to make slip covers for two children chairs. Sounds easy...not so much. I will post pics when we finish. Wish us luck.


Being unsafe, like always

This is the face he makes when you say "say cheese" not a good thing to teach a child when their cheese looks like this. Too funny
