Halloween

This kids dressed up as the Aquabats from The Aquabats Super Show for Halloween this year.
Henry had a parade at school then we went trick-or- treating with a group of about 30 people. It was crazy and fun. Afterwards, we warmed up with a bowl of chili at a friends house. A great day was had by all.










p.s  I made the kid costumes this year.

Projects

For the past couple months I've been busy refurbishing old furniture.
I got the desk many years ago from a nun and the coffee table came from salvation army for less than $10.
The color I used for both pieces are Mermaid's Net by Behr. I made a chalk paint, which is usually used for the distressed look, but I love the matte look and the paint goes on so smooth. It also dries pretty quick and no chips or peeling so far!! I used a wax paste to protect and seal the paint.  I am very happy how both pieces came out.
I'm looking forward to show you pictures of my completed living room makeover.









This is my next big project.


Have you been working on any projects lately?
