So I've been majorly into crafts lately. But like, not just crafts with paper and stuff. Big, building type crafts. Me and Lauren Cole have been into Industrial Design lately. (Hopefully that is her new major!) It's soooo fun. I love doing stuff like this. We just moved in together and we've really transformed our apartment! Most of the things we've hung up have been made by us. Here are the things we've done so far, but we're not quite done yet!
These first five wood projects I made at the beginning of the summer. I just mod podged paper onto different things.

I gave this to my mama for Mother's Day. It was special because she's a little bit
homeless right now, so she liked it. |

These next ones are the crafts we've been doing to decorate our apartment! I'm so proud of them!
 |
| I bought 4 kitchen chairs from DI and mod podged the seats with fabric to make them cute! |
 |
| Frame we built to staple fabric over it to make it look like canvas. |
 |
| Finished product of the wood frame fabric canvas we made! It's so beautiful! |
 |
| This is a 4'x6' chalk board I MADE. I bought a thin board, primed it, and painted it several times with chalkboard paint. Sanded it a few times, and painted it again. And hung it up! So hardcore. |
 |
| Here is our kitchen with the chairs and fabric frame! |
 |
| This is our skeeball machine Lauren's grandma is letting us use! I put it together :) |
 |
| Lauren made these cute tissue paper flowers to go above our TV! |
Our apartment is the cutest. Really. We're going to have lots of little food parties. I'm so excited for it! But we have one more project we're going to do.
 |
This flower is made out of toilet paper rolls! We have a big empty wall and we're going to make a HUGE one! It's going to be so awesome. I've started collecting the toilet paper rolls, but I need a lot. So start keeping yours for me!

I'm really so proud of our apartment. I absolutely love it. I also love living with Lauren. It's sooo much fun!
