Sorry, I have been not such a good blogger this week! I've had to entertain my kids, and I was working lots of crazy shifts...days, nights, etc.....But this is what I've been up to inbetween ! This is the bookcase I've been designing and with hubby's carpentry, pulling together. It is a knock off of a Pottery Barn one, but much cheaper. When I'm finished priming and painting, I will show you how we did it, and what you need to do it yourself! I think it is turning out better, actually!
Today, hubby pulled out the big guns for this project I sprung on him the other day!
This is our giving tree! We have a few like it on our property, but this one has the swing and the kids climb it etc! So, I wanted this below............................................
Isn't is beautiful! This is from Martha Stewart. I thought it was so amazing, and is just what this area needs! So, right now, he is trying to figure out the layout, math etc......
Stay tuned!!!!

ReplyDeleteI've just looked at your post and yelled at my husband to come and look at your husband's tools on the front lawn. It made me giggle because I can tell you have a VERY talented man on your hands while mine struggles with the smallest project. At least he tries!
I can't wait to see your bookcase reveal. I'm sure it'll be lovely. You're very inspiring because you obviously have a very busy life with your erratic work schedule and being "Mom" to young children and still being able to tackle projects around the house.
Keep up the good work - Lisa

Wow, you are so lucky you have a handy husband. That bookcase is going to look so good! And I love that little tree bench. Can't wait to see them both when they are done!
