Summer Projects



Don't let Himself tell you I don't finish projects.  I do!  I do too!  Some just take me longer than others.

This summer we both got a lot accomplished!

This flag stand, for one.  I got it in my head that I wanted to get these swiveling flag stands for my sons-in-laws and one for Lanny for Father's Day.  Actually, I thought you could buy them and that's what I aimed to do.  When I found out it was a craft project with plans on-line, I enlisted some help and we went at it.

Himself, I will admit, sometimes gets caught up in 'my' DIY projects.  Thanks for your help honey!



I made curtains.


 
Lanny made 4 cabin cots. 
 
We need two more, or at least one.  That can be a fall or winter project.  I made that orange quilt top pillow case, the bright pink one and rounded up a few more throw pillows. Some of the girls did some spray painting of shelves and accessories.  They all brought blankets from home.  It's starting to look pretty homey.   
 
 
Joey and I studied Gramps loft ladder and whipped this up.

 
I found these chairs for Traci.  This is her project now!
 
 
This also is Traci's project, and Craig's.  They have accomplished a lot this summer.  The outside is all painted and trimmed. They hope to enlarge the decks sometime and they have living room walls to put back but they are 'getting there'!
 
Now, there are a couple of big projects brewing in my mind.  Real Big Projects!  It will entail hiring a little help but it's time we did them.  It is time to 'getter done'.  I'll tell you more about that down the road.
