The Weekend Project

I have decided to try and use Mondays on the blog to highlight...

>>>>>>>The Weekend Project<<<<<<

I have several projects that I would like to complete.

Some are large and some are small.

Some will take several weekends and

some will just take a few minutes or hours.

>>>>>>The Weekend Project<<<<<<

I hope to use as a way to keep me on track and knock out my projects

 out one by one.

Our son's 2nd birthday was last month and I made paper chain garland to decorate 

our chalkboard 

and our mantel

I wanted something that was a little different from the triangle buntings or banners.

And something that looked a little more masculine, if you will.

So I made paper chain garland.

Over the weekend I took all of that garland and instead of throwing it away

I hung it from the ceiling in our playroom.

I thought it would add a nice touch of color to the beige walls.

I also made some felt garland and wrapped it around a very plain white lampshade.

I think it ties in nicely to the paper chains and circle garland as well as

the alphabet print that my sister gave me.

{I took a few of these pictures tonight (sorry they are so dark)

But it was the only time today that I had to snap a few photos.

And the playroom is a wreck right now but you should know.....

this house is RARELY picture perfect!}
 

I am hoping to make or purchase a large wall clock for this wall.

And surround it with various styles of letters to make up the alphabet.

But that is for another......
