So I've really been wanting to do some home projects to make our apartment a little more personal. Plus we needed some color so I decided to make some shelves (with Nick's help obviously) and some picture frames.
So I found brackets for the shelves and then we went to Lowe's and bought wood, paint, and screws and went home and made our shelves. I have some different colored brackets but they aren't here yet, so we've only made one shelf. It looks a little lonely on the wall, but hopefully in a couple weeks it will look nice with both of them up there.
I also made some picture frames this weekend to match our living room/family room/dining room/den. Its all one room, but Nick and I have divided it all into four parts to make our apartment "feel" bigger... so far it seems to be working.

Cute frames!
I love the frames and shelf! You are so creative. I have been trying to find some shelves just like the ones you made. I might have to borrow your idea. Keep them coming :).
SYD! these frames are awesome! So cute- how'd you make them? I wanna be crafty too- craft party?
They are really easy. I bought the frames at DI for 50 cents and then I just modge podged fun paper and added ribbons, etc with a hot glue gun!
Ok, so where is my daughter and what did you do with her? I'm going to have to start calling you Martha with a touch of Ina. You are awesome (I know that didn't come from me.)keep them coming, they are so fun to see.
Seriously, you cannot be related to us--you are TOO crafty!! I am so impressed with your domestic skills. As I type I am wearing one of your o so cute headbands and I have already received like 10 compliments on it and its only 10:30am! You're amazing!
I must admit that we never expected you become so domesticated so soon. I think it's great. You are going to be such a great wife and mother. I love seeing all your wonderful ideas to enrich your and Nick's life.
