feeling a little crafty and such

On Sunday afternoon I opened my bedroom door and saw this beautiful bird. I walked out on my balcony and was lucky enough to get it's picture. (this is my backyard, along with about 30 other condo's)
Good thing my zoom works.
This is my roommate.
My friend Valorie.

I was feeling crafty today. This magnet board use to be just plain maroon. Every time I'd walk by, I wanted to change it. So today I walked out my door and thought, "today is the day!"

I went to Michaels and bought white paint as a primer and yellow paint. Then found these stickers and went to work. The stickers were on sheets and then I placed them. Now I wish I could paint the wall!

The magnet board is so cute. I've been wanting to get me one for a while, and you've given me some inspiration!

That is beautiful! You never seize to amaze me. You're so creative and make everything you touch beautiful. I need to get one of those boards. It won't look as pretty as I'll probably leave it the non-creative color I buy it as, but it's a start. haha.

I love your view out the back yard. You look so pretty! I'm glad you're having fun!
