She pleaded...

She gave me that look and pointed at the container of pureed spinach and potatoes. Her cry said "I am a big girl, I can do it myself." She pleaded "I have been feeding myself finger foods for months, I know I can handle pureed too!" What was a mother to do?

Crafty space {basement makeover}

Image
I have been dreaming of a place where I can be artsy and craftsy... a place where I can sit down in my spare minutes and be creative... a place where I can leave a mess and pick up where I left off... a place for my mind to wander and my hands to create! So I created space in the basement. Before  After I took 3 Queen/King flatsheets and nailed them to the ceiling beams....looks sort of pillowy. I measured the area for carpet and got a 12x13 remnant and put carpet tape around the edges and laid it down. I added lights, shelving, tables and a couple nails to hang a canvas and a painting shirt.... Voila!!! I am happy with this budget makeover!  Estimated cost $120 I am so excited to have this space to create!! I will be hosting craft parties too...yay!!
