Excitement!

So tomorrow while I am at work, my hubby and my cousin are going to pick up the old desk at my mother's house that will become my craft/sewing desk after I fix and clean it up! They are under strict orders not to do anything to it, as I want before and after pictures of this process!

Is it sad that I'm this excited over this?

"Or as we used to call it, arts and farts and crafts..."

Today I decided to make some decorations for my massage therapy room! I'm very happy with how they turned out. I started with:


4 unfinished 5x5 wood squares



3 sheets of scrapbooking paper

A jar of Mod Podge, and a jar of Espresso Bean acrylic paint.

First I painted the wood squares. Then I cut out squares from the scrapbooking paper to fit on the wood squares. I Mod Podged the papers in place, and came up with this:
Cost Wrap-Up:
4 5x5 Wood Squares : $2.80
One Jar of Acrylic Paint: $0.67
Scrapbooking Paper (3 Sheets) : $0.87
Total Project Cost = $4.34 (before sales tax of course)

Now to hang them on the wall :)
