Next up...

I need something new to do.  Ive finished all my other projects and so now here are my options with some help from Pinterest!


A pillowcase would be a fun, quick project before school starts.

makeup roll?

Coasters

Quilted placemats

Perhaps some more pillows?

or wall art?

I could just play with crayons!

Paint and canvas?

Or maybe some patchwork... 





Some many ideas, so little time.

Do you have any ideas?

Project Status: Complete!

there is going to be a new thing around this blog.  i am going to bore entertain you with my Project Status every once in while.  Which technically means it will be whenever i remember.  

So for the first one.  

I have finished quite a few of my bigger projects so far including a dress, the final pillow {remember this post?}, and another quilt top for Girl Scouts {like this post}. 

Pillows-

Here's the newest pillow.  I loved how it turned out!

It is by far my most favorite!


Dress-
I'm not sure if I like the way it looks/fits yet so no pictures :)  But besides that its finished!

Quilt Top-





So im thinking i need a new project to do.

My first modeling job.


Today.  Casey and I had a modeling/photo shoot job.  We know the owner of Spanky's in Vancouver, WA.  She offered us the job.  It was a lot of fun!  We chose outfits to wear for the shoot and then we got to shop around for ourselves!

Tree to Tree

Tree to Tree is an adventure park near Hagg Lake in Forest Grove, Oregon that is a high ropes course.  there are many challenges and tough parts, but it is still fun!  We went with Casey's family and my cousin/aunt/uncle's family.  It was a blast!  I can't wait to go back and try it again!  You should check it out if you live in the area!

At the beginning

Learning how!! yay!

Slow and steady!

There were 4 levels.  Green, Blue, Red, and Black

Next course...

The Rummage Sale Box



Has been covered! It is new and refurbished.  

Heres what it started as.

Then we ripped tissue paper and covered the drawers and outsides in decoupage.




Poked a hole through the tissue where it covered the hole for the handle.

Found a couple corks and screws.  Cut the corks in half.

Painted them white.

Waxed the rail-type things inside the box.

Painted the whole thing with varnish.


Let them dry.


pretty, huh?
