I have a lot of catching up to do.......
Many weekends ago, my boys decided to be handy-men. I'm completely in love with pallet ideas and everything you can make from them. I love the way the wood looks when it's finished, and best of all? FREE! Chris has a friend who gets truckloads of them for bonfires that he does. It's great.
Measuring wood for my headboard and coffee table!
I could SQUEEZE this kid, I hope his little brother takes after him in looks!
It was a hard day of working!
My pallet coffee table!
My new headboard! (Nevermind the bed, I was doing laundry and knew if I waited to take the picture, it would never get done!) A blog about my completed bedroom (that's not finished yet) will be soon! Or in reality, probably close to Christmas! ;)
Meanwhile, I (and Maddy) were making our own detergent!
10 Bottles of detergent were made with 1/4 of the cost of 1 bottle of Tide
We figured it out and we saved $131.00 just with this one batch.
Madeline very much enjoyed pouring the mixture into the containers and I enjoyed all the money I was saving! (On a side note: In my opinion, this detergent is just as good as Tide!)
