WEEKEND RECAP

It’s usually so hard for me to get things done around here because of the boys, but this past weekend I was able to complete a few things on my to do list.

I was so excited about the frames that I found a Michaels, that I wasted no time starting on them!

Six of them now look like this

I may need to do two more, but we’ll see when I tape off the wall

I also managed to finish the dresser down stairs

I’ll post the before and after Friday (fingers crossed)

It was so much fun getting these things done because while I was working on them, I was tweeting back and forth with some of my favorite ladies!  I was also posting pictures of my progress on twitter.  Do any of you tweet?  If so, I’d love to tweet with you!

So, how productive was your weekend?  Did any of you run to Michaels for the frames?! I heard from a few who were able to get them (Myssie, Erika)!

The dresser is looking just fabulous...the color is wonderful!
I tweet, though not really that often. Glad you were able to get some projects worked on this weekend, I mostly took it off to hang out with the family. Janell

You were a busy girl over the weekend. You might want to do a dry run layout using newspaper or freezer paper, tape the paper on the wall as to how you would like them arranged, use your level during this process, and then you're ready to hang you photos, another tip, you can take your color photos, make black & whites from the copier to unify your photo arrangement...just a thought.

I can't wait to see how those projects turn out!!

I'm not going to comment on how productive my weekend was because I doubt it will ever match up to yours ;).

Can you just tell me how on earth you do all that you do? Seriously... I use to read and do scrapbooks and all sorts of things but now I barely have time for any of these it. My youngest is 1 and all I've done is two pages for his album. *sigh*

I am in love with the dresser...in love!!!!
