Busy Bee That's Me!

I've been a busy bee!

It's been a long time since I've hit the Pinterest site up for DIY ideas. I suppose I get a bit restless on these cold, gloomy days and search out things to keep me (and the kiddos) busy. I had lots of little odds and ends that I wanted to fix up but didn't have much $$$ to do it. Fortunately, in most cases all it took was a little fabric and ta-da it was much much cuter!  Unfortunately, I did ALL my projects in one day and am now "hunting" for more projects to do! ;-)

top row:
~An old chair with a ratty ole' leather seat just needed a little fabric with pizzazz to freshen it up!
~Not sure if I already posted this adorable letter frame I made for over Mya's bed with a CHEAP mirror from Ikea!   One of my favorite "accessories" in Mya's room!

middle row:
~Some cute pink polka dot fabric gave this "curb desk and chair" a new ultra adorbs girly look! That's right... I have NO shame in being a garbage picker!

bottom row:
~ I got this chalkboard idea from Pinterest. It is actually a large $24.99 frame from Ikea. You just chalkboard paint the backing board and you have a fabulous chalkboard. I think it's days of having my "positive" saying is limited. Mya is DYING to use it to color on with chalk!
~The middle picture took me almost a year to figure out.  I got this fabulous wooden frame at a sale I go to twice a year. The back of the frame is in pretty bad shape and the size of the frame is so odd that I couldn't get a picture printed to fit. I have been brainstorming for almost a year as to what to use it for. Tray? Frame? Mirror? I finally decided to cover a piece of foam board with some fabric for Luke's room. My initial thought was to put an "L" on it and hang over his bed. For now, I decided to hang some snapshots of our little guy on it! I'm kinda liking it this way for now!
~The last picture is my mini-me! Of course when Mommy is DIYing, Mya has to have a project to work on too!
