We've continued our progress on the new room. I'm really excited about doing this because each project has been done by Kaitlyn and me together. We've had lots of fun! She's helped strip wallpaper, pick out bedding and today she helped me create artwork. It may look simple but don't be fooled. We spent over an hour at Archivers this morning picking out paper and then using a die cut to cut out hundreds of circles to create buttons for this butterfly picture. We then worked together to punch button holes in each one, paint the canvas and glue them to the canvas. We also sorted through real buttons to find just the pink and green ones (with help from Chase which made it a bigger challenge) and then we used glue dots to attach the buttons. We still need to hang it and then make the headboard and window covering and then we'll be pretty much done! It has been a great project that I've really enjoyed. I know I'll always remember it.
