Halloween Costumes

Ok, so its April and I finally getting around to posting the kids Halloween costumes.....so sad.  Anyway, this year was so fun and super easy compared to past (elaborate) Halloweens.

 Bam Bam and Pebbles

 

 50's Car Hop

Felt Table

I don't know what I was thinking when I decided to take on two big projects for Christmas this year, I guess I thought if I started early enough it would be easy.  I decided to make a felt playhouse for the my two little ones for Christmas after seeing them on pinterest.  (my pinterest inspiration)

  Here's my finished Felt Playhouse

Front Door (bottom half of door is a flap and mailbox opens)

Doggy Door Side

(black flap opens up to be a secret enterance)

Backyard with apple tree

  Garden Side

 (my little guy was putting things on faster than I could snap the pictures, hence the carrot dangling in the sky)

Train Table

Chalk board train table with storage.

My kids have been collecting trains for 10 years and every Christmas Santa brings something to add to the collection.  I've been wanting to make a table to store it all for a long time and it finally made it to the top of the "never-ending project list". We (the super amazing hubby and I) drew up plans and redesigned a lot and finally came up with a table big enough to fit all the trains and small enough to fit in the toy room (it turned out to be about 4 x 7 feet with 8 cubbies underneath).  We finished our just in time for Christmas.  It was A LOT bigger project than I had planned.  It turned out great and the kids love the chalk board top.

 One end has pockets to hold an eraser and chalk.
