Decorating

Sometimes there isn't a lot of justice in this world. Like the fact that my mom is one of the craftiest, most creative people that I know and she had me - one of the least crafty, creative people there is.

I enjoy cute things, but I can not make them myself! :)

When my mom was here with me, along with cooking, cleaning, babysitting and letting Eric and I go out on TWO dates, she also helped me with a bunch of projects for Elena and Lily's room - some that have been in the works a LONG time. And by help, I mean, she did most of them. :) Hooray for my crafty, willing mom!

Here's a look at some of the finished products. She got Elena and Lily matching pink and brown polka-dotted bed sets. (We still need to get Elena a toddler bed, but you can get the general idea..) We made various accents to match:

Awesome!! Whats really lame is that she also had me, who is as equally uncrafty as you claim to be :)

She can come decorate my house! We have lived in this place for almost 8 months and have yet to hang up pictures on our wall:)

I love it! You and your mom did an awesome job! Does she want to come do my kid's room? We'll... we'll have to have a place we can call our own first I guess:)
