Attempts at being crafty

I made this start out of scrap book paper. It was pretty easy, the hard part was cutting the pieces to fit exactly and then coordinate the colors. But in the end it turned out alright and I added little gems just to give it something extra. I have it hanging up over my oven to match my pink kitchen!

I just finished this cross stitch a couple of weeks ago and on Saturday the frame finally came in the mail. I got the pattern at the store in Utah, but they also have an online store where I was able to order my frame from. http://www.pineneedlesonline.com

We got these chairs from Daniel's grandma. We sanded them down and redid the cushions. It took a long time sanding them, but we really like how they turned out- maybe need another coat of something on them again.
