Projects!

For those of you who don't know... We moved. We are still in St. George, just the other end of it. I decided that I wanted to decorate... haha. I love decorating so it was pretty fun for me. I wanted to put little touches in our house so it would become more of a home.


Lindsay gave me a few plants to see if I could keep them alive. I've always wanted to try and grow something, but I never got around to it. Thanks for the plants Linds!

I added some pillows to our couches and curtains to our windows to add a bit of color, since everything in our new place is tan or cream and we can't paint...

While I was at the craft store I came upon some discounted flowers and a flower pot and decided I'd try to do some kind of a craft. Wa La!

"What is this" you say! Well it all started out when my Sis Annie showed me this fun sight. KnockoffWood. I fell in love with a Tv/console table and had to have it.

So I headed to my Father's cabinet shop with plans in hand and began to build.

This was my little friend that wanted to help me, but he didn't do much. The person that helped me the most was my Dad. I had so much fun spending some daddy daughter time together doing something we both love. My Dad is so talented with woodworking and I hope to learn as much as I can from him. Thanks Dad! I love you!

I put alot of work into the base and the top of my table. I had to make it look rustic by sanding, chiseling, and cutting my cherry wood. I also had to make my doors look rustic by sanding them to death.

We put some drawer guides in and began putting the doors on.

Once everything was put together we had to drill the holes for the handles.

TA DA! Now it is sitting in my family room, housing Jon's very large TV.

I had so much fun learning how to build something. I can't wait for the next project!
