Knitting Dreams

So since Fall started, I have been secretly teaching myself to knit. My Mom has been a huge source of my inspiration because she knits really well, and our realtor actually encouraged me to continue trying. So since everything is packed and I really don't have anything else to do, I wanted to finish a pattern  I had started earlier. So here they are! My little mittens, my first knitted creation!!

Turns out I'm actually quite good at it too!!!

"Joy" Pallet Art

I am so excited for Christmas!! It is by far my most favorite holiday!! I feel so giddy and happy, and it also inspires me the most. The last two days while we anxiously await our closing date for our new home, I had the itch to create something. So I cut a piece off a pallet, sanded it down, and began painting. My inspiration for this obviously came from pinterest... haha. Once it dried, I distressed it using sandpaper and attached some final decorations. Voila!! A perfect beautiful piece to display in our new home!
