last saturday billy had a 15 hour day so i knew i needed a project/craft to work on.
i decided on a button craft....
it took forever to hot glue all the buttons but it was the perfect project for me and i love how they turned out.
cullen cat naps, usually an hour here and there so i was able to do this while he slept.
our washer and dryer are in our basement and our basement is not finished.
our basement actually kinda creeps me out, haha!
i spend a lot of time doing laundry though so i thought this would spruce the space up a bit.
only thing is i have no idea how i'll hang them to our cement walls.
i'll be asking my pops for a hand, he's a carpenter and i'm sure he'll have a solution!
*******************************
billy worked at home one day last week and he needed a little bit of help from me.
he knows i'll work for candy....
ha! i ate almost all of it that day...
********************************
last thursday the fire station had an open house.
we had to go, the fire station is directly across the street from our home.
we hear the fire truck all too often....
culley in his fireman hat!

i got new fuzzy boots and some leg warmers and i tried to get a pic of them...
phone pic fail!
but i did love my comfy fall outfit!
oversized, long hoodie
leggings
(i live in leggings these days!)

Those button letters look SO amazing!!! I absolutely LOVE them! Our laundry is also down in an unfinished basement and it creeps me out big time!! I haven't done anything to decorate or make it any cheerier so maybe I should try something like that? Maybe some bright colors would help? Our walls are cement too. I've thought about painting the walls but then I think of all the millions of other things I need to do and the laundry room always falls to the bottom of the list. You did a great job!!
I'm continuously amazed by your craftiness! Could you use those no hole hook things to hang the letters? Just a thought, I'm not sure how well they'd stick to cement.
SHUT YOUR FACE! omg that is SO cute! how crafty are you?! I love it! now i want to see a pic of it in your laundry room STAT!
I AM SO DOING THAT CRAFT!
I also LOVE those shirts... cant wait to see where you got them from... I need to get a few for the upcoming holidays for my girls :)

You make me so jealous with your crafty stuff!!! I'm still in awe over your ornament wreath from last year and now this. Love the button letters. I think I may need to do this for Ellie but in her room colors. So cute!!! Thank you for the inspiration.
Oh...and of course you look amazing!!! Cullen is just so stinking cute!!!
Please share where you got your oversized long hoodie - I've been looking for one for a while, but had no luck!!!
Your outfit looks super comfy...where do you get your sweatshirt?

Love the little shirts you made him also the Laundry letters--so fabulous!
You do a great job as always.
I also love your comfy outfit, it was 46* here last night so I may need to invest in some comfy cold weather outfits. :)
You are so crafty - I love the button laundry letters....I may have to copy you!!!
Love the letters! Way to go on the craftiness.
Those letters are absolutely adorable! I may have to use that idea sometime!! I made painted letters for my roommates over the summer but buttons never crossed my mind!
those letters are presh! I may have to do that for my laundry room! thanksf or the great idea!
Love how your Laundry project came out!! And look it Baby C...as adorable as ever!
The laundry craft is so cute! Love it. I also love your cozy outfit!! I'm with everyone else, where'd you get that sweatshirt? I need all the booty-hiding stuff I can get now that I'm preggers ;)
My house is 99% concrete walls, and I have learned to love the 3M Command Strips. The ones that work the best for heavier things are the velcro photo hanging strips. Good luck! The letters are adorable! Where did you find all the buttons?
Your laundry letters are TOO cute!
thanks for following! sending some bloggy love on your way and looking forward to reading your blogs! =)
Those letters are adorable! They sound pretty easy, so I might try these sometime soon.
Your "Laundry" project is SO cute, what a good idea! And Cullen in the fireman's hat is priceless--I just want to squeeze those cheeks!
love your sign and omg you are so skinny haha!
We always end up doing similar craft projects! I made a huge monogram letter out of green buttons for our bedroom! Love your laundry letters!
I am going to copy your laundry craft...thank you very much:) Also, a way to hang them on cement walls is to use those "no damage" stick on things (official name) made by 3M. you can get them at Bed Bath and Beyond. i use them to hang everything on my walls before i use nails. just to be 100% sure i like it there!!
You have such cute clothes....can you share with us in posts where you get them from??
i love that long sweatshirt, where did you get it?? Also, I wonder if those Command Strips would hang your laundry letters?
Love your outfit and I can't believe how tiny you are after having a baby only a couple months ago. :)
The laundry letters are adorable!
The button letters are amazing! And you always look so cute!
That laundry sign turned out great!!!! You should start making crafts and selling them on etsy!!
