Alex: the bedroom makeover starts!

This has been a productive weekend. After changing my mind about 3 times I finally figured out what I want to do with the boys' room! This weekend I finally got a chance to finish some of the projects I had been working on!

It started with me finally finding some cute fabric squares to make my pennant garland...which turned out way better than I hoped! I started a tutorial for it, but then got bored of taking pictures of each step! ;P 
Plus it took me several weekends to finish thanks to a broken sewing machine part and not having any brown thread!
I found the fabric here It was Tim and Beck's Apple Jack squares...but its no longer on the website!

Then I got started on the boy's Initials for their stat wall. I made a template of a stripe on the computer and then traced it on to the letters and fabric.
I modge podged the paper mache letter and smoothed the fabric over it!
 The picture makes the fabric look pinkish, but it is actually gray!


I had this one ready for a while but hadn't hung it up. I made the letters on my computer and then printed them on really thick card stock. Add in tiny binder clips and some twine and it was good to go! :) 
You can download a copy here
The font was mostly Janda Fabulous, but J and K are KG Cold Coffee and Pass the Chex

I have several other things planned, but need a little bit more time to get them together! I will post the finished product whenever that happens! :)
