Craft Room Update!

This week I finally got my craft room re-organized and set up for use! I got facy new bins to hold all of my new yarn. I have almost used up all the buckets from the wedding, they hold all of my paints, scissors, etc. I feel like I can actually spend some quality time down there. Next month I plan to move a futon chair down to knit in. I can't wait! Even Asher likes it down here. I still have some work to do but I plan to spend a lot of time down here!




Everything finally has a place to live... now I actually have to have time to use everything!

Another Type of Project


Over Christmas break I had the chance to see my family in Iowa. My younger brother and his wife are expecting their first child. A little girl they plan to name Elizabeth. While I was home they asked me to paint a mural on the walls of their nursery. They picked out the images and I spent about 8 hours putting it on the walls. It turned out fairly well, for my first mural. The important thing was that they were excited and said it was exactly what they wanted. Little Elizabeth is expected to enjoy her new room this coming May!
