baseball

today we are celebrating five of our nieces and nephews' birthdays! our gift to them is a trip to a rangers game in august, so to give them something to open and hold in their hands today,  I made these little goody bags of peanuts and cracker jacks with a tag in the front explaining what it is for. Although my suspicions are that my three year old niece will be clueless about the game, but be totally excited she got a bag of treats :)

diy headboard ideas

our guest room furniture at the moment is comprised of a box spring, a mattress, and a metal bed frame. if you are in a similar bind here are some headboard ideas that you can pull off for cheap!

find two pieces of plywood at a hardware store and stain away

use wallpaper or a block of color to create a headboard

cover a couple of canvases in fabric using a staple gun and mount above the bed
