Monica's Tree Wall

My two bff's and I are notorious for crafting late into the night while discussing, well, everything. I am in awe of these two gals and they inspire me to do so many craft-a-licious things. For example, Monica recently repainted her entire office. On one wall, she made her own stencil and put the coolest pattern across the whole thing (that's another post for another time). On the opposite wall, she free-handed a tree. Yeah, a whole tree. Are you dying to see it?
She found these adorable bird hooks at Hobby Lobby so she could "hang" stuff from the tree branches. How freakin' cute is that? Seriously, Monica, stop being so adorable! You're making the rest of us look bad!

Happy Father's Day

For Father's Day, I decided to make my dad a specialized picture frame. I started by taking a frame with 3 picture slots and etching it. I didn't have contact paper, so I used masking tape to trace the letters so I could paint over the bare spots with etching cream.
Then I traced the etching in marker and put pictures of all of us behind the glass, and voila - a personalized picture frame for Dad.
Happy Father's Day
