Week 3 is a small project

I say small project, but I am  a little worried this one will get away from me. I am writing this two weeks before I need to start working on it officially, because I have a lot going on and I need to hunt for supplies.

This was suggested by my friend Rachel. And I love the look of it. Rustic, simple, natural. But I am going to have to go hunting for the right twigs.

The results will be posted at the end of the week.

Project One

I can't say I am particularly proud of how this turned out. I spent some time looking for an inexpensive pillow case that would match my kitchen. Obviously I had no luck.

This week was very busy with the painting, and my getting ready for a pretty intense trip tomorrow. I am glad that I picked a project that was useful and easy.

So here is the quick and easy (and slightly ugly) version of the embroidery hoop laundry basket. Good new is that it works and that I can always redo it when I find the right pillow case to match.

Why is she doing this?

It is the start of a new year. I am not a fan of resolutions. But I am a fan of intentions. And I live and breath new projects. Every few months I decide that I am doing a big long 365 sort o project.

This year is no different. This year I am intending to make a Pinterest project a week. I will be posting the link to the project at the first of the week. The finished project at the end. If a project ends up taking too long... I think there will be filler projects. I want to number them, so project one will be week one, that sort of thing.

I welcome suggestions, just put them in the comments.

Let's see what happens.
