Refinishing Grandma's Chair

I knew the chair had potential. It was going to be tossed in the trash but all it needed was a little attention. The chair was throwing out a very 70s vibe but the green cushions matched my house, so I had to at least try. Here is what the chair looked like before...



Brent took the chair apart, (I nearly freaked out when I saw it in pieces in the garage), sanded it down and painted it black. My small contribution was cleaning the cushions. Here is how it turned out...



Now I have Grandma & Grandpa's chair in my family room, it's just a little piece to remember them by.

Congrats

Time for another card swap! The theme for the KSL swap was congratulations or graduation. I needed a simple but cute design. I found the paper and flower embellishments at Heartfelt Creations. The stamp is from Stampin' Up! I used a different flower embellishment on each card.

Easter Sweets

So, it's a bit late but I want to share these super cute peep jars! I can't take all the credit... I borrowed the idea from Creative Holiday Gift Ideas
It's the cutest gift for family and friends. Everyone loved it!




We had Easter dinner at Brent's parents house and I brought dessert. I made chocolate fudge cupcakes decorated as little Easter nests! It's easy, fast and all the nieces and nephews ate them up!

April Showers

I just love this little man holding the umbrella! I painted the wood letters then covered them with scrapbook paper. I snagged the set at The Wood Connection in their Last Chance section. It's the perfect decoration for the rainy spring weather we've been having in UT.

Peeps

My mom and I made the cutest Easter decorations!
PEEPS!
We found the blocks at The Wood Connection in Murray. How cute are these little bunnies?!

I won!!

Check this out!

What should I make next?

Away in a Manger

I found this wood nativity set, where else? at The Wood Connection!
I painted it, added raffia to the manger and glitter to the star.

Merry Christmas, everyone!
