weekend update



Haven finished the 6th Grade.



Here's the shirt I didn't get a photograph in yet. Haven took the picture.

Ikea was hard. They were completely under renovation, they were out of stuff I needed, I forgot my Ikea credit card..... and this guest bed goes down in history as the most mistakes made in one do it yourself project ever. If I could put it on wrong I did. I don't know what the deal was. I'm normally very good at putting together Ikea stuff. Anyway, in the end I have more pink and more fun in the craft room. This little guest bed is pretty cool. It folds up for a sort of loungy chair thing, and then unfolds for a guest bed. And there's a stow away drawer underneath for bedding. See the lamp shade? I was about to give up when that one caught my eye. Just enough girly goodness without changing the color of the light. I also got some plastic containers to sort and store my fabric and the drawers are for wrapping paper, gift bags, etc.

And the reason I needed this furniture and major clean up of the craft room is because my mother arrived today! She's here for about four weeks. Yeah!
