A Few more projects to share

So let me explain - obviously this is a "before picture" but what is it? Well it's a cd holder actually that I found when I was out and about - but I saw something else.

This past Christmas I was on a roll - I was going to get all of my Christmas shopping done early. I found the PERFECT doll house for my daughter! I was thrilled! I always wanted a doll house when I was a little girl - and since that didn't happen for me I was determined it was going to happen for my daughter. So when I saw it online - I ordered it!

Well a week or so later guess what - the doll house came. When I answered the door my daughter was right behind me and the doll house box was in full view. They did not put it in any sort of "hidden" box - nope it came in a box with a HUGE picture on the front showcasing this doll house. She was thrilled- I was heartbroken! I knew in that moment it would have to go back because Santa could no longer bring it to her unless I wanted to have the "talk" with her early :( So back went the doll house.

Fast forward to me seeing this little case and the creative juices started flowing....here's what I came up with.



A grouping of the pieces:

The table was also "unfinished" I painted it white to match and then "dressed" it up with pattern paper from GCD Studios.

This bed makes me giggle! It was an old pinewood derby car before - not even joking! Look at it now - isn't it so cute! I couldn't resist adding in a little rug for the cat - oh my Mom would be so proud to see me crocheting (thanks Mom for being so patient with me - see I did learn LOL)

Here's a close up of one of the chairs:

I also have a little mini book to share. I have been wanting to create a little book about myself for a while now. I think it's important to scrapbook about yourself - and if you are anything like me you often forget to do it.

Here's my little mini book using the "Artsy Urban" line from GCD Studios (I {Heart} this line - not even kidding!)

The inside pages tuck into the book and the book closes - this picture is kind of small but you get the point:

Here's a close up of one of the pages. I really wanted to focus on my journaling on these pages:

Well the laundry is not going to do itself I guess - so I better get to it. Have a super day everyone and thanks for stopping by :)
