Renew and reuse

I found this set of chairs at the dump and decided to save them. With a quick sanding and a fresh coat of paint that turned out like new. They will certainly get some good use sitting around the camp fire this summer.

Upcycle

I took and afternoon and made a wood pallet bench. It was so simple and easy and only took about an hour to complete. There will definitely be more pallet projects to come.

Crochet LOVE

Here is my latest crochet blanket! I'm really happy with the outcome. I have finally grasped the end chains and skipping a stitch after the end chain. I should have put a picture of my first attempt. My blanket was tapering and I couldn't figure out why. This one turned out perfect though. It will make a great birthday present for my mother.

Paper Ornaments

My cousin Amy told me how to make these ornaments. You cut 20 equal size circles out of scrap book paper. Make three folds in the paper to form and equal lateral triangle. Then glued them together to form a globe shape. I think I an going to make some smaller ones into Christmas tree ornaments.

I have FINALLY completed one from start to finish. I am in love with the finished project and the love the steele blue color. I am going tostart another one right away but this time I would like to try stripes.
