Miss Me?

This is what I've been up to lately:

Before:

Two weeks of this:


Now!:


That was a long three weeks, but I will have to admit that we've done a little bit of happy dancing in our new kitchen (to music of course)! I LOVE it! It's not actually completely done yet, but man I didn't realize how much I love having a kitchen sink until I didn't have one. Today I'm working on a valance with this fabric.

The kids had a fun Halloween trick-or-treating for the first time. Usually it's been really bad weather or trunk-or-treats going on so I just haven't taken them around to houses. To tell you the truth I was kind of dreading it, but they were so excited and it did end up being a lot of fun. Kate loved it. Notice Grace's toothless grin :)



I really am not ready for Christmas to come. I haven't bought one thing and I still have no idea what things I want to make for the girls. I love having a homemade touch to Christmas so please send me all or your creative ideas (I'm begging). Speaking of creative things I haven't done as much as I'd like to lately, but here are a few fun and easy things that I've done:

This is a great way to use your fabric scraps! I just used regular batting on these, but for my next ones (Christmas) I'll used something stiffer so that I can make a garland.


Grace and I also made this fun chandelier for her friend Alyssa's birthday.


Give me a minute to catch up on all of your blogs! I'm sorry that I keep disappearing. I hope you all are doing great. Talk to you soon.
