sooooo…... i’ve been getting all these awesome ideas for little man’s birthday party from this wonderful blogosphere of ours. there are so many crafty people out there willing to share their mad skilz. my mom was incredibly crafty. i went away to camp for 2 weeks and came home to a platform bed with a built-in dresser, a desk and attached matching bookcases with doors on the bottom for storage. that she built herself. with her own two hands. and no do-it-yourself kit, either. wow. she painted and stenciled and faux-finished and baked and sewed…….seriously, she was who martha stewart wanted to be. and if she were here now, she’d be shaking her head with amused pity.

so, share with me your recent crafting adventures!
