It has been so long since I have posted, but I have been a bit distracted by my son who happens to be the most adorable baby in the world I have ever seen. Don’t you agree?
I can barely take my eyes off him, therefore crafting, cleaning, cooking, etc. has been suffering. However, this past weekend my hubby and I spent one whole day cleaning and organizing the basement. I was able to get some stuff done that I have been thinking about for awhile.
I hung up some chicken wire on an empty wall. I quickly hung some pictures using clothes pins. In the future I want to use it for projects I am working on and maybe as a pin board. To the right I used some embroidery hoops to add some color. The one in the middle I used fabric and lace that I got from a vintage curtain.
Don’t judge me mind the shadow. I haven’t picked up my camera in months.
I also got to display the vintage sewing machine a family member gave to me over a year ago. I love it!
I also hung up the garland that my bestie made for my baby shower. I had half-assed hung it up before, but this time it’s staying. Also if you look up top I have framed vintage magazine ads that I bought for like 25 cents at a flea market. I should’ve take better close-ups but I was down there during nap time.
Finally, I had forgotten about these shelf liners I snagged at Marshall’s a while back. It took me 10 minutes to cover my Target cabinet that stores my collection of fabric. I’ll have to buy some more for the cabinet to the right. Too bad my hubby and dad put it together upside down. It doesn’t even close. But, I can’t complain, as I wasn’t even in the room when they made it.
I hope to be able to craft some more in the last months of my maternity leave. But don’t be surprised if another 5 months creep by me with out crafting a thing.
Can I live down there? Looks amazing lady!
