Craft Room (laundry room makeover)

I have the best husband ever! I am lucky he is so crafty and a hard worker. We have a laundry room with enough space for a desk, so I showed him some other craft rooms I've found on Pinterest and he got inspired! Here is my craft/wrapping/couponing space.
                                                 BEFORE:

Laundry Room Space Before


Home Depot
  • wood
  • pegboard
  • paint (white and "feldspar" Behr) I bought a whole gallon of the wall paint-half would have been plenty
  • pegboard baskets (set of 3) + extra hooks

    Other stores

  • mason jars (purchased at grocery store)
  • Photo stand (Michaels Craft store on clearance for $2) use to put iPad or books on
  • "Imagine" wall decor (TJ Max)
  • multi-plug outlet (already had, but you can find at a hardware store)
  • Chalkboard Cookie sheet (used an old cookie sheet and sprayed it with chalkboard paint, my husband is supposed to build me a frame) 
  • Plastic storage drawers (Target)
   AFTER: 
                                                                

There is a trash can under the open part on the left side so I just swipe all my trash to the left!

Screw in mason jar lids to wood to keep "nick nacks"  in...

They love the new room!

DIY: Calming Glitter Jar

Calming Bottle Instagram Post I saw a great idea on Pinterest a while ago about calming glitter jars being used in the classroom. I have not used it in the classroom yet, but here's what I'm thinking... Students who are upset (not violently) can go to an area of the classroom away from the other students. The area can have a stuffed animal, journal, timer, stress ball, and or the calming jar. I looked around my house for a jar or container that had a flat top so it could be turned over and low and behold I found the Starbucks iced coffee bottle. Here is what I used and did: Need: A sturdy bottle with a flat top bottle of glitter glue (color of your choice) I had a bottle of black glitter glue loose glitter (color of your choice) I had pink rubbing alcohol (for sticky bottle label removal) hot water decorative tape super glue Steps: 1. First I removed the labels from the jar and soaked it in a hot water/rubbing alcohol bath, after it was soaking about an hour o...

Medieval Times and Pirates Dinner Adventure Review

So we live about an hour south of some fun, family places. We have wanted to check out Medieval Times (MT) for a while now. Our friend called us up with a deal/promotion they were having. So we gave MT a call and reserved our dinner. (We visited in 2015, Buena Park, Ca) Medieval Times 2015 When you arrive, you will want to get there early mainly for parking purposes. The seats have been assigned, so it doesn't make a difference if you were the first in line.

That is the team you are rooting, screaming, shouting for. We were team black and white. My daughter was still chanting "black and white!!!" days later. Before the show, you can check out some cool stuff at the gift shop, visit the bar, and my favorite part...see the horses. They are in stables and you can check them out (before...
