Craft Organization

My crafts are out of control. They have taken over the kids playroom and I am determined to get it under control. How am I to do this though? I turned to Pintrest for help and I found it.

I found this little gem and desided this is perfect. I jumped on Craig's List and found an armoire that is perfect.

I snapped it up for a cool $20!

 

Now I have a few ideas on how to make it mine.

 

Such as the following...

The Perfect Dinner Party Menu

 I've said over and over on this blog that I can't cook. It's as true today as when I first said it. However, I have always dreamed of having a dinner party and it being as wonderful as my family of Chefs makes theirs. Pintrest has made this dream even more powerful as I have now come up with the perfect menu to serve. Here it is...

It's Raining In the Mohave

I woke up to rain and a grey sky. It's super dark in the house and it's going to be a perfect day. The only thing we are missing is S'Mores. How do you make S'Mores inside on a rainy day you ask?

Gather the following.

1 large shadow box
river rocks (sold in Dollar Stores)
a few cans of sterno (you can find these in home goods @ Walmart)

Do the following:

Boring Bookcase? Not Anymore

 This is a boring bookcase. The back is just plain bland and it is decorated terribly.It just looks cluttered. So what is a girl to do right?

Gather supplies! I popped the backs off my Walmart $30 bookcases grabbed a can of spray adhesive and some wallpaper I was going to use in the Master Bedroom but changed my mind.

This is the back laying on the table.

Spray Adhesive I also got at Walmart for $5.00

Spray the back really well with the spray glue

Lay the wallpaper down on top of the back and smooth all the wrinkles out with your hand. (Ask for help with this part once down the paper tear easy)

Turn it over and trim the edges with scissors

Attach the back to the bookcase with tack nails (provided with the bookcase).

All finished Just decorate and enjoy. (Yes some of this will be rearranged a few more times while we are working on the new flooring).
