Make it Monday.

New week...had an awesome weekend except we were supposed to go to my sister's house on Saturday morning but because of the snow we didn't make it.  This was an extra special weekend Zander finally cut his first tooth!!!  And actually tonight at dinner it looked like another one might be "popping" up soon.  So didn't get to do much with my wall project over the weekend, but Jerry did hang the wire for the masterpieces so that part is all done.  We don't have any Zander art up there yet but Keaira's book she made for Zander is up there and our neighbors son made us a card.  I'm sure it will be filled up soon enough.
"Masterpieces"

I used my cricut machine to cut the letters out and used the sticky shelf liner from Lowe's so that they would stick directly to the wall but can be easily removed.

I was in a super crafty mood today and got lots done for the wall.  The board is completely covered in white contact paper.  The contact paper and I got into a little bit of a fight today and I think I in the end won.  We have some small square cork boards that I wanted to use on the wall so I decided to make some more "art" to put above the whiteboard.  Although Jerry wasn't overly excited to hear that I put burlap in our printer but he did like how they turned out. :)

Then 2 cork boards...kind of boring so I didn't take a picture of them.

So those are the things that I made today to hang above.  Got all the ideas from Pinterest.  The new amazing thing I found out about pinterest is all the free fonts that are on there.  It's awesome!!  Trust me I felt creative today but it was just using others ideas.  So now we just need to hang the whiteboard and all the squares for above and then put a frame around everything and the wall will be done.  So hopefully we can get it finished up this weekend...or maybe before if I ask nicely for it to be hung up :)

Funny story pretty much off topic..well sort of on topic..it has to do with Pinterest.  Jerry is always seeing me looking at stuff on there so he had me make him an account and now he's on all the time.  He also found it awesome that other people were repinning the stuff that he pinned.  Oh goodness gracious I think I might have helped create a monster.

Now that this project is coming to a completion I am going to have to decided what to do next...decisions....decisions.....
