Pinterest Saturday-Fireplaces

Yeah the weekend is here!  The weather here in central Texas has been so amazing and Fall like.  Fall is my favorite time of year.  All the colors and smells of fireplaces burning is great.  Yes, people really do use fireplaces down here.  Once the temps. dip below 50 degrees you can smell the logs a burnin'.  I know, kinda crazy but hey, it's fun.  So snuggle up with a blanket and enjoy some beautiful pictures of yule log holdings.  Fireplaces of course.

Kids Art Wall

Well, it is Monday!  Which I am sure everyone has already figured out by now!  I have been having some back issues lately and getting things done is more of a challenge.  I will probably be seeing a doctor very soon.  Bummer!  But now on to something alot more fun.

I have been working on lots of projects around here(with the help of my great husband) and one of these was for our kiddos to have a place to hang all of their amazing art work.  So this is what we came up with after all the great inspiration I found on Pinterest.  Here is the link to that post: Pinterest Saturday.





Pretty good!  Here's what we did.

We bought 2 1x3's from Home Depot.  We got the nice finished wood that way I would not have to sand it down.

Next I primed and spray painted.

Third, my husband hung them up on the wall using some picture frame hooks.  We can actually take them off the wall with ease if we need to.  We wanted to hang them horizontally at first but found there was not enough room in the space.  So, vertically it is!

Lastly, I hot glued on the Office Depot Bulldog Magnet Clips. 

For an extra touch I added a framed title to their Art Wall.

This is a great way to organize your kids art or anything special you want to display in one specific place in your home.  Have a great week everyone and take some Time to Organize.

Pinterest Saturday

Happy Weekend Everyone!! 

It's in the air!  Thanksgiving and Christmas are fast approaching.  I love this time of year just for the mere fact that it's not as hot as a firecracker here!  Plus, I love falling back on time.  An extra hour a day is always a welcome!

Here are some Pins for Thanksgiving and for Fall time.  I hope they inspire you this season.
