DIY Play Kitchen From Old TV Stand!

My husband and I decided to try our hand at a TV stand play kitchen this year for Christmas! We were super excited about it and we knew our girls would freak. We started hunting for the perfect TV stand and I lucked into finding one for $20.

Here's the before and after!

Tons more pics inside the post, including progress photos, instructions, a printable, details and a full price list. :)

Happy Birthday, Aiyannah!

My beautiful princess, Aiyannah Shelby turned 3 last weekend! I can't believe how fast time is flying by. I'm so proud of her and it's been so exciting to watch her grow! She is obsessed with Monsters Inc so I actually decided on the Monsters theme last year after her 2nd birthday. When I asked her if Monsters would be ok, she got REALLY excited. I sculpted the Boo cake topper to resemble her a little as well. :)

Happy Birthday, Odina!!

I can't believe my baby is one... Where did the time go?? She's such a smart, spunky and funny little girl..It's been an amazing year!

We went for a winter/owls theme for her party and I was so happy with how it turned out!

Party time!

Something I've been wanting to do since our oldest, Sisika started school was to throw a Halloween party for her and her friends. This year, she's in grade 1 and I finally decided we were doing it! My Mum and I put our heads together and got to planning. Luckily, she made a trip to the States the weekend of the party and found a few really awesome additions to our trick or treat table!

These were the invitations, purchased from Etsy! Sisika picked them herself and loved that the little witch looked like her! I loved the chevron.. ;)

Easy Diy Chalkboard

When we bought our house, one of the first things I wanted to do was to make a large chalkboard for the weekly menu on one of the kitchen walls. We've owned this house for 2 1/2 years, and we recently got around to doing it!

It ended up being just about free. Can't go wrong there!
