I decided I still needed something mantle-ish to accommodate my decorating needs, so Chris built me a little something..

The little chalkboards were 33 cents at Michael’s!The yard sticks were found in a closet when we moved into this house.

We find the best things around here!.Kennedy doesn’t get why there are so many apples in this display.I guess the reference is too old school for her.

When there are kids involved, there always needs to be a craft.And 99% of the time, that craft needs to involve paper towel rolls taken out of the recycling.

Or sometimes the trash.

Almost daily, Kennedy comes to me holding one and asking what she can make with it.Find the spot where you’d like to place your image.

You can measure, or you can do like I did and just eyeball it based on where my image was on the other side.Smooth and press with your hand.. Peel ‘er back!.

The pillow cover that I’m working with here is actually the back side of another Halloween themed pillow cover I did about a month ago.So I made it reversible!.
