Projects

Since we're moving by the end of the summer, we really need to put our house up for sale as soon as possible. But first we have had to tackle the projects we've intended to do ever since we moved in but never got around to. Our (meaning Joshua) most recent project is turning these unappealing iron frames into some columns that will hopefully enhance the front of our house.
Here's Joshua at work--combining his brilliant engineering skills with carpentry expertise and sheer muscle--making our columns. He actually just constructed a wood frame around the existing iron. So far we haven't received any complaints from the neighbors yet, so I think they're a success!

When in Washington my mom and I picked up some fabric to make an upholstered headboard for our bed and some coordinating pillows. So below is the finished product--another of my ideas implemented by Joshua (pillows aren't in the picture). We're still looking for some decorative pins for the border.
