Little projects
I have been keeping busy up in North Idaho. I FINALLY got around to whipping up some flower clips for Kelsi's hair (did I ever post about her haircut? - She hated every second of it, we cut 4 inches off, not many people can tell because her hair is still long, but it has helped with the tangles issue). ANYWAY....I haven't made any since Kelsi was like 6 months old so I made her a bunch of spring-like clips. She likes them, but she is funny about holding them. She will only hold them by the petal so she doesn't have to touch the "plant" part. Weirdo.
We also got around to installing the hardware on our cabinets. Here are a few before and afters. The knobs were a piece of cake to install, but the pulls were a little nasty. However, we love the finished product!

Oh, and I made this thing with my two little hands (don't you worry, I got a WHOLE post dedicated to this puppy at the end of this week).
