Getting Crafty

One thing I love is crafts.  I planned a whole, though small, room in our house to be my craft room when we built our house 4 years ago.  Everyone has different ways to relax.  For me, I just need to be alone with some paints, pretty papers, glue, ribbons, etc.  I’ve often wished I was one of those people who relaxed by running and exercising, but that doesn’t do it for me.  I exercise because I have to.  Sometimes.  {grin}

Well, that room has a new purpose now.  It’s a perfect room for our little man when he gets here.  It’s downstairs with us, so I can check in on him easily.  I am perfectly pleased with the new purpose for that room.  It’s still a mess and halfway full of craft stuff, but I will work on the nursery transformation to keep my mind off court and travel over the next few months.  I may have to edit (Tony’s word for get it out of the house!) some of my supplies.

Who has time for crafts with 5 kids anyway???

But, since I still only have 4 kids (ha!), I want to share what I made yesterday.  I was just playing around, so I’m sure there are some better products I could have used to make it look more “professional”, but I was happy with how it turned out. 

{Hopefully, we will hear an update and maybe get some more pictures of our little man this week.  It seems to be taking about a month to hear about court dates, so I am not expecting to hear anything anytime soon about that.}
