Play kitchen redo

A thrift store end table redone into a play kitchen. Took off the front cupboard doors and added the ruffle piece. Went to the ReStore and got the burners, knobs, and faucet. The sink is just a plastic tupperware bowl. Added the board to the back and thanked my husband for cutting out the window. Put a scenic picture behind it and added the valence. As I look at it now, though, I am going to redo it in one of the fabrics in the ruffle. A coat of yellow paint finished it off.

Ruffled purses

Found this pattern on Pinterest. I made the smaller one to practice and made the larger one for my daughter in nursing school. I enlarged the smaller pattern by 1/4 to get the bigger size. The ruffles between the band and gathered portion add an element that makes this a favorite. I changed the handles so you could put this over your shoulder.

Pumpkin seed turkey

I had the kids all bring in pumpkin seeds from carving their pumpkins. I put them in bowls, squirted some tempera paint in and stirred them around. I was wishing I had spray painted them. I think the paint would have adhered better, but this method wasn't bad and was cheap.
