It's SUMMER!!!! Woohooo.....this is my first summer in probably 10 plus years that I have not worked or babysat.....the only thing that I am doing is taking two classes and playing! My roomie Sarah Jessica and I have a list of fun/cheap things that we are going to make this summer. When two creative minds get together you never know what will happen. Yesterday we started the day off the local park taking pictures for one of those creative name frames. I am trying to make one for my sis in law, myself, and for a wedding gift. I am excited to see how it turns out because seeing that I don't have a summer job the budget is low. Then we went to Goodwill (my new favorite store) I bought two frames for 0.50. I will post later about what I made. Then we headed to my favorite antique store in Collerville. I love that place and could spend tons of money there. After that we walked around 3 hardware stores and 2 craft stores. Our minds were going crazy with all the things that we could do! So we went home and I started my first project.
Summer Project 1
I took an old picture frame (Goodwill 0.25), chickenwire (free.....lol talked Amanda into buying it and then talked her into giving it to me.....I am going to make her something so she will have a happy), some S hooks (0.99) at the local hardware store, and a staple gun (loaned to me by Jonathon...such a good boyfriend.....p.s. I am trying to talk SJ into going to play with his table saw while he is in another country....she keeps saying No and something about Tim Allen....ha! ) Anyways after a few scratches....stupid chicken wire....here is my finished project.... I am so in love with it!!!!
