Alphabet Bathroom Project

My friend Megan is many things. She's a terrific mom and a working woman at the same time. She's smart, loves the Lord, and all things historic and vintage. In addition, she is the ultimate crafter.

She and her husband recently moved to a new city where they have a house to decorate. I'm totally jealous that she has so much space, and she has done an amazing job decorating it so far. I should have documented all the greatness to share with you here, but alas, I did not.

During my visit, we worked on one of her projects. We (meaning mostly her) made the entire alphabet for H's bathroom. I was there for moral support and great at handing her nails for hanging each letter. I wasn't able to capture the entire bathroom in one shot, but I hope you appreciate the idea all the same.

Crafts with Caroline

Caroline is Joe's little sister, but I want to claim her as my little sister too, if that's possible. She's amazing, and I don't think I could ever get tired of spending time with her. I never had a sister, and Caroline and I have a few things in common. One of those things is our love of crafts. She leans more towards sewing as her artistic outlet, and I really enjoy collages when I'm not doing design work.

When we got together recently, we decided to try something new - mixed media. We took a trip to Michael's (the craft store) to get some supplies and had a blast checking out everything in the store. We spent a couple hours laughing and talking while making art.

Here's what came out of our time together! The first three are of Caroline and her art; the next three are of my piece.
