Day 239 - Another project done

For the past 3 weeks I've been working on this:


Look how fun that is! I saw this idea when I was googling nursery decorations and I thought "I can totally make that myself". And I did. Thanks to photoshop, I was able to copy the person's design and use their design as stencils on scrapbook paper. And guess how much this person wanted you to pay for her to make it? (I googled it, which led me to her etsy site) $70! Wow! That is a lot of money for a wall decoration. I made it for 1/10 of that cost. $5 for the canvas's at Walmart, $2 for some scrapbook paper, and I already had the mod podge and I used my mom's cricut for the letters. It was fun to make. It took me a while to make because I only did it at night when Clint and I weren't watching our show together. And I nap when Jonas is napping, so I don't get anything done when he's asleep. Oh, and by the way, Clint and I have been watching "Arrow" together. It is so AWESOME! We found it on Netflix. If you like superheroes, which we totally love, then you will love this show. I'm addicted and I'm sad that we have to wait for season 2 to get to Netflix.

Anyways, I can't wait to hang it up. I'm going to put holes in the top corners, and string ribbon through them and hang them up that way above the crib. Now let's see, the last time I needed Clint to do some heavy lifting for me, it took 2 weeks for it to get done. So I'm hoping in 2 weeks we'll have the crib set up and these babies hanging on the wall and the piano moved out of this back room. It will get done, because she's coming in at least 4 weeks or less.
