$5 rocking chair redo

I got this rocking chair for $5. It had that great '70's fabric on it complete with the ruffle under the seat (which i took off right away!). The lady I bought it from was moving and said that her man friend took the bottom cushion with him when he was done visiting. Did he just love it or did he have an accident that he didn't want her to know about?? I don't really want to know. With new padding, fabric, and a class at JoAnn Fabrics this became my first full reupholstered chair! I also added an adjustable head rest/lumbar support to it. What do you think? I have since redone my piano bench with the same fabric.

St. Patrick's Day hair

Well, it was nice to have the braids in already. I just took yesterdays ribbons out and put in todays in.

Braided hair

I finally talked Eliz into letting me do her hair. This website is a great site to find all kinds of tutorials on hair designs. I love it!!! Here is the link for this particular tutorial.

Here is another one I did a while ago. This is the link. There are many different variations to choose from!

In memory of Mrs. Williams

When Nathan was in 2nd grade his teacher passed away unexpectedly halfway threw the year. She was a great teacher who loved frogs. We all miss her. I made this stained glass in memory of her for the staff and all who visit the school. It hangs on a window leading to the courtyard for all to enjoy.
