DIY Bucket List

I consider today my first day of vacation. Yes, I have been out of school for two weeks, but up until today, each of those days has been full of plans. This week I spent all day Mon-Thurs working the Winnebago Girls Basketball camps. It was really fun, and also sad, to spend the week with the girls for the last time. I wish them lots of luck in the future.

Anyways, back on track to my first day of vacation. My major goal of the summer (besides moving back to Iowa) is to complete a number of DIY projects. This has mainly been fueled by my love of Pinterest.com, a wonderful site that allows you to see way too many projects and ideas :) I'll let you in on a few of the major projects I hope to conquer:

1. A number of duvet covers. I tend to want to change my bedding with the seasons, so I've picked out a few designs I can sew myself.

I am well on my way to completing this duvet, pictures to come :)

Next in line...not sure white is the color for me...

 2. I also want to create come felt flowers to add to out current bedroom lamps (that are very boring).

3. This hamper is a must! For some reason, I cannot get my clothes from the bathroom to the bedroom hamper...

4. And this pillow is a must! I want it to be really BIG so I'm on the lookout for a sale :)

5,6,7... I have others on the list, particularly the repainting of a headboard, side table, and ottoman redo, but I'm not sure how to tackle those projects yet. Don't worry, I will keep you updated!
