Leprechaun trap

Mandy had to create a leprechaun trap...I took an old light bulb box (no before pic) covered it with green ribbon,

 made the ladder out of popsicle sticks (sticks were already green), printed out some shamrocks...

  I had popsicle sticks in all colors so we used it on the other side to create a rainbow effect, boom boom made the rainbow, I glued the sticks, some gold coins (scrap paper), gold glitter to add some pizzaz

and there is your very own leprechaun trap....Mandy was very proud to bring this to school today!!! 

Oh yes, we filled the bowl with lucky charms, only marshmellows because Mandy loved the colors!!!

we went to build-a-bear, Mandy had a gift certificate and she got this cute kitty

Boom Boom got this little one (it's called a small fry) Did you notice Boom Boom has braces!!!

I finished my tables and here are my new curtains, courtesy of my mom!!

We are putting in a new patio, I know, I know...how many MORE projects can I fit into my life!

Here is my hubby framing the space!

A new piece I picked up...thoughts? It's getting a paint job for sure....

So here is Boom Boom's before shot:

After with her braces on!

I'm trying to perfect my braids so my girls are my models....

I know this side this work, but I'm getting there

That's all folks, just living life and taking it one day at a time, trying to document as much as possible!!!

Have a great day!
