Bella and I are going to head out to Athens today to work on a little project that my sweet, sweet daddy has been helping me with for 2 weeks now. I called him a while back to see if he'd be interested in building me a craft table for my craft room. It is just too hard to do some of the crafts that I'd like to do laying or sitting on the floor. He agreed and asked that I find him a few pictures to go by. Well, thanks to Ana White's tutorial (found here) I was able to show dad exactly what I wanted, complete with measurements and a step-by-step tutorial! We made a few changes to the original design...we shortened the width by about 10 inches, we added backing to the shelves, and we added two wooden dowels to hang ribbon on. Much to my surprise, dad went home, inventoried his supplies, and headed to Lowe's to get what he needed. He finished the construction in ONE DAY! Is my dad the best or what?!? He got it sanded and primed and now it is ready for me to paint it. Here's a "before" paint shot that my mom texted to me the other day. I'll add a "finished with paint" picture later.
we celebrated our very first married Valentine's Day! We're not much on making a big deal out of Valentine's Day, but we do like to cook a good meal! This year was no different! I made some "heart" cinnamon rolls for breakfast and they were delish!
Excuse the sideways picture...it wouldn't let me change it.
