Oh what do you do in the wintertime?

I've been feeling tons better--pretty much back to normal since the surgery, so this week I've got a LOT done. It might also have to do with the fact that I haven't exercised (at first I wasn't supposed to after surgery, but now I really don't have an excuse) and I put cleaning on the back burner. AND it's still too cold to go outside so I'm always trying to think of things to do . . . Here are the fruits of my labor :)

- completed a Valentine's wreath--I stole the idea from one of my friends--it includes loofahs! Who thought of using a loofah for a wreath?!

- finished painting our dressers (the big one and the dresser seen in the mirror reflection)

- ordered a poster-sized wedding picture (thanks Maris for the fabulous editing job ;) and painted the frame for it (free frame that our friends were taking to Goodwill!) and Finally ordered pictures for the frames on that side table
- sewed some real cute snap bags--I had some great instructions via phone from Talane since I was sick when she showed us how to make them during Christmas



- I actually finished putting new seats on our kitchen chairs in December, but I had to show them because I took so long in getting them done--I got the chairs this past summer and just kept putting the project off because I didn't have a clue how to get started. It was actually pretty easy to do, and I'm mad I didn't do them sooner.

- puttied and re-painted all the nail holes in our upstairs.

- finished "decorating"/hanging frames up in our bedroom

- finished making "countdown to Christmas" wooden blocks, but I stored them away before I got a picture!

- made and sent out Valentine's cards, but once again I didn't take pictures . . .
