Kids Table & Chairs




I had some scrap fabric and was really tired of looking at my daughter's IKEA table and chair that were REALLY worn with markers and dried playdoh etc. The whole thing took about an hour to do with Mod Podge and black craft paint. The little felt flowers were left over as well, just hot glued them on. I can Mod Podge anything in the world that stuff is really awesome!

Refinished TV Cabinet


This project is a couple of years old. Before it was an oak entertainment center. As we modified the tv's it became useless. My husband wanted to sell it and I said "NO"! I needed a china/storage cabinet. It now houses the "special" dishes and other holiday odd and ends.

Recycled Project


I am not one for jewelry boxes on the dresser, things get put in and never come out for some reason. I like to have my jewelry out in the open, no shuffling around. So most of the time it is just thrown on the dresser or nightstand. I had an old frame (obviously) and I love to use scrapbook paper for anything but scrapbooking. I added a little ribbon, hooks and finishing nails and there you go. It hangs in the bathroom right by the sink. Easy, easy! I might add some finishing nails later to make more hanging room.

Kindle Cover


I don't like any of the offered coverings for my new Kindle so I made one. I like holding the Kindle in one hand, not holding it open like a book. For a sewing beginner I think it came out pretty great. The lining gave me the most trouble. It is basically just a pouch with a velcro strip inside!
