Projects

That word is an ever growing list in my house but I have to admit that I love to do projects. I think it is because of the results and that I get to enjoy it!

We started the seeds almost 2 weeks ago and are waiting to see if anything will come of it. I plan to buy some plants for the garden as well .
Here is the garden site. Mr. Masters was kind enough to get it ready for me and I am very excited about growing some veggies. Now if I could just get some chickens too!
This is my new and improved fire pit. I bought 1100lbs. of rock and 420 lbs of sand to complete this project. Total cost was under $200 dollars. I am very happy with the results and hoping to help with the mud pit we had before. I also planted moss in between so lets hope if lives. We spend a lot of time here so it makes me smile to see it beautified.
This is Phoebes' whimsical painted headboard. I have to admit I got the idea off of Pinterest but created my own design. Phoebe told me that she feels like a princess when she sleeps.
This is my new painted basement. Before it was an awful dull off white. The picture makes it more green than it really is but it does not feel like a basement anymore.
Here are some floating shelves that I installed as well.
Here is Lula's painted headboard. She really likes it and it fills that big pink wall in nicely.
My guest room(it really is just an extra room not a guest room) was a catch all and I never opened the door because it looked so bad... but now it actually looks like a room with a purpose and I don't feel the need to make it my catch all room.
We have also recently planted 12 trees for some future privacy and hoping they will survive, especially because I do not particularly have a green thumb. I am tired but taking a few days off before I am on to the next project. =) Speaking of next project, I have several bushes and juniper that I plan to remove from the front yard. I will post before and after pics when I get to that going.

This caught my eye this am during some quiet time and thought I would share.

Proverbs 31: 10--31
The Wife Of Noble Character
If you get time look it up and reflect on it. "This puts wisdom in the fabric of her life"

LOVE the February post and ALL of your projects. They look great (especially the fire pit) but I will have to say it wears me out a little to think about it all. Can't wait to see you all again soon!
