Wonderful {Productive} Weekend!

I am a lucky girl.

My amazing mama was here all weekend to help get some crafting projects both started and finished! She is the BEST! We made:
-Curtains for the baby's room...plain white with some adorable Amy Butler fabric for the tie-backs (a big THANK YOU to Jamie's Mother-of-All-Trades for sharing her sewing machine with us when mine decided to have a melt down mid-session!)

-Sheets for the baby cradle (which BTW will be the 9th baby to use this cradle...it started back in the day with me...)

-Fun closet dividers for baby's closet. I got the idea here and altered them a bit. I'm quite pleased with how they turned out!

(yes...those are still Nick's clothes in the closet...rearranging where we are going to put everything will come soon enough...)

-Started on some pillows (mom took these home to finish)

-A crib and changing table purchased!

Annnd while we were busy crafting, Nick got some more work done on refinishing the armoir and almost getting the hand-rail put up to the basement...hopefully this project is getting completed this week?....you reading this lovie??

Onward now to the next projects...
