Creative Sunday

After a night of restless sleep, the kids woke us up this morning. I fed the kids then got Houston dressed so we could go to Michaels. My parents gave me a gift certificate to Michaels for Christmas and their was an idea I had gotten from pinterest, so I just needed to go pick up a few things. While Houston and I were shopping, Mark moved Baylors room upstairs. It looks like such a big boy room and we will eventually be moving Tye out of Austins room and into his own room downstairs. It just isn’t working having Austin and Tye share a room, as they seem to feed off of each other and I think Austin needs his own space at his age. So far Baylor has liked having his own room so we will see. When I got home I fed Houston and laid her down for nap. Then I got started on my project. I wanted to make silhouettes of the kids faces to hang up in our room. The silhouettes ended up being much easier than I had thought. I also needed to sand and paint a door that was left in our house when we bought it. I have been seeing all these different ideas of things you can do with old doors, and I absolutely love them. So here is my “finished” project:
The picture just doesn’t do it justice so I might try taking another one tomorrow. And I still would like to add something to the sides because I think it still needs something. But all in all I am pretty pleased with this. We hung it up in our bedroom. So this is my first pin to pinterest of my own. I have made several other things, I just haven’t taken pictures of them to post on pinterest. I also made Houston a few bows today. Now that she wears her hair in piggy tails a lot I needed bows that I had two of, and also some bows that were small enough to pull her bangs to the side of her head so they aren’t in her eyes. I think they turned out pretty good. So it was a pretty successful creative Sunday!
