I don't usually do a whole lot to decorate for holidays, but pinterest has kind of changed all of that. Infact it has caused me to bust out crafty projects left and right. Andrew is my crafty boy and he loves every minute of it. I'm quite enjoying the creative outlet as well. Here is our mantel this year. Our cheesecloth ghosties were lots of fun.
My favorite part is these spooky spell books. I followed a link on pinterest to print off the pages and then used dark wax to make them look oldish. Then I just taped them onto some books of mine. I think they turned out awesome.
Yes.... that is 3 refrigerators in our kitchen. Ours has slowly been dying for awhile and a repair man confirmed that there is a slow freon leak, not worth fixing. We were so happy to find someone giving away the other stainless steel one, but here's a little lesson... you can't transport a fridge on its side. It can ruin it. The same nice repair man confirmed that as well. So now... we are hoping that the black one at the end will step up and do the job. A working fridge is one of those things I have often taken for granted, but believe me.... fridges are great blessings in our lives and you should go give yours a hug right now.
For a long time I've been wanting a giant magnet board to display family and friend pictures. I wanted one big one, but ended up with this instead. I think I like it.
Easiest front door decoration ever.
Awhile ago I let Andrew start keeping a small box of leftover bottles, cans, boxes, etc... that he can use for his art projects and science experiments. It has grown and grown. He is a little trash collector and yet... he comes up with cool projects for pretty much everything he has stored. That is his unused pile in the corner, but his finished projects are taking over his room. I love it and hate it at the same time.
