Projects around the house

A few months ago I got this painting at a garage sale for 50 cents! I liked the frame and had a few ideas for it.



I ended up making a bow holder. It makes it so much easier to find a cute bow to put in the girls hair!





Ryan HATED the wallpaper in the dinning room, so he took it down. On one of the walls there were 5 layers of wallpaper! It was pretty interesting to see all the different layers. Here's a picture of Logan helping Daddy take the wallpaper down, or mostly down.



I forgot to take a before of the room, but here's after the wallpaper was taken down






Jace mudded and sanded for us, and then Ryan textured the walls. For Labor Day the kids and I helped Ryan prime, and then Ryan and I painted the walls. It turned out pretty nicely! -I'll get an after up soon.
