April Craft List

1. Finish the crochet blanket started for Boy Bee's crib. Only two more sets of 14 different colors left!
2. Finally get around to painting the ancient Ethan Allen dining table pulled from the trash nearly 2 years ago. I'm thinking marigold yellow.
3. Collect an obscene number of paint swatches from either Wally World or Home Depot. Cut them up. Make mobiles; stars and paper airplaines foe Boy Bee and hearts for Girl Bee.
I would add more but having two toddlers has taught me that the more I put on a list, the less will actually happen.
I promise that when I finally get around to Easter crafts the pictures will follow soon after.
Happy Easter, everyone! And Happy Crafting!
- Bees In My Basket

Truly by Julie's To Do list (wish list)
1. 1.       Decorate for Spring- make Cherry blossoms
2.       Turn old dresses into skirts for Spring & Summer- I have a pile of dresses that have sat in the corner of my room since last summer that I have been trying to figure out what to do and it hit me this week- I need some new summer skirts! 
3.       Finish painting bedroom- Need a couple of nice warms days out so I can open windows- keep your fingers crossed!
4.       Curtains up in the man’s bedroom- Not going to wait for him to get around to ordering them....when he comes home from his ski trip this week- curtains will be up!
5.       I love you gift for the man- I have this idea that has been brewing in my head since Valentines day, I need to get the puzzle pieces put together and put pen to paper and watch it grow from there.

I will commit to no more than this as I am a full time student now, but have made a commitment to have one day a week free from homework so I can do crafts. Plus I have Spring break starting in a couple of days and the guys will be gone skiing, so I will have spare time on my hands! Yea!
