tid bits of doings

 

 

 I have been wanting to order a slip cover for the futon couch for a while, but didn't really want to spend the money on one, especially after purchasing a new mattress just last year.  So I got the idea of sewing two sheets together and making my own version of a slip cover!  The color that was chosen was "dusty grape" PERFECT...I love it! 
Our bedroom has been a work in progress since we've moved here two years ago.  We finally got it painted, still some touch ups to go.  Still needing to finish the final coat on the trim, pick out a bedspread, paint the end tables, and purchase lamps.  It's coming along great though and making quite a happy place for me.  My bedroom has always been my go to place for peace.  I love to read and just do quite things in this place during the day and before bed.
Something new I tried this week...making yogurt...success!  Add some fruit and honey and it's perfect.  Tastes like a dessert.
and...we put smallish pool up!  In a much better spot this year.  It's NOT in my front yard, it's level, and NOT under a tree!

Blessings,
Joyful Mother
