New Year

Oops I've neglected this again!

Not posts since October! Ahh

New Years resolution is to post once a week!

Let's see if I can do it!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 

Chalkboard Fun

I found this idea on Pinterest and absolutely loved it and wanted to make my own. 

It's a chalkboard table. 

So I bought a coffee table and am going to sand it and then paint it. 

I decided that I'll do progress blogs on it. 

So here is the first pic. Don't mind the items on the table, it kind of shows the size of the table too. 

Also repping the DailyBumps vlogs from June 2013. 

Cubby House - Completed

Here is the end result of the cubby house. 

P.S - You can tell how crooked the window is now 

Cubby Update

Today I covered the front of the cubby in white paper and then painted over that with brown paint, ready to draw lines for bricks on. 

The door is yellow but may change as I didn't like how it turned out. 

I also painted a blossom tree on a piece of white paper ready to stick on one side. 

As is is spring now I'm heading for a spring theme for the cubby. 

Cubby Houses

Oops haven't posted in two months. 

How fun are cubby houses. Everybody loved them as kids and I'm sure your kids love them too. 

I'm currently making a cubby for the kids at work out of a cardboard box and will be happy to share the progress with you. 

So here are a few pics of the project to start with. 

I painted the inside walls of the box white and the roof blue. 

As it is spring I'm going to put some flowers and a blossom tree on one side. 

There is a door and window on the front and I'll paint the front and door spring type colours. 

Stained Glass Windows

What you need;

Glue 

Food dye

Plastic lid

Tooth pick or skewer

What to do;

Put some glue on a lid. 

Add some food dye and use the tooth pick to swirl the colour around and make different patterns. 

When dry it should peel itself from the lid. 

Put a hole in it with a hole punch and hang by a window. 

 This one is probably a bit thick as you can't see through it too well. 

Above is looking through with no window. 

Below is looking through at the window. 

Snowman Door

How cute is this?!

I recreated it at work onto a glass door, doesn't look as cute but still good. 

Hopefully the children will think his cute too.
