Insta Friday

April 25, 2014 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

BIG NEWS, FOLKS: I’m on Instagram! 
Follow me @CraftyTeacherLady

It’s the end of April Vacation week and I’ve been loving all this free
time to enjoy my hobbies, some down time, and catching up with friends! Here’s a glimpse of what I’ve been up to recently via my iPhone & Instagram pics…

Finally got around to creating a gallery wall to surround my flat screen! 
Look for a post all about it next week…

Went to a ‘facial hair pageant’ for men! Was suuuuuper entertaining and hilarious! 
Here I am with two of the contestants:
Enjoyed the spring sunshine and a picnic at the beach with one of my dearest friends…

  
Have you tried the waterlogue app? It turns your photos into water color paintings! I love having time to just play around and be creative!

I also played around with my Silhouette Portrait cutting machine to create some art…


Dinner in town with some of my oldest and dearest friends! We’ve known each other since the earliest days of high school, so like 18 years now! They make me laugh so much!!

And this also makes me laugh…hysterically…it’s a show on Comedy Central where people get really, really drunk and then try and retell a famous event in history! Did I mention it’s HYSTERICAL?? I binge watched the entire first season and it was amazing…this history teacher gives it ‘two thumbs up’ (and advocates responsible consumption of alcohol)!

Off for a shopping and lunch date! What are you up to today? 
Linking up for with Jeanette at Life Rearranged for InstaFriday

    Drunk History sounds like a good time, I'll have to check it out!

Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry tre Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine! 

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!
Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love w Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love with my recent find…the curves are just so darling! I often see many great finds on Marketplace but because I don’t have a truck or trailer, I have to miss out on a lot. I knew this desk would fit in the back of my SUV so I jumped at the chance to grab it. What’s your favorite secondhand find?

Kitchen Progress Update…lots has been done but als Kitchen Progress Update…lots has been done but also still lots to do! I’m not in a hurry with this renovation…working full time and having a kid who needs lots of attention really limits what can be accomplished (and budget)!! But, I’ve got lots of ideas and plans and will chip away at things slowly. My main goal was to get the flooring and counters done before moving in and the rest can happen…whenever! 🤣😊
I’m slowly but surely adding accessories to C’s ro I’m slowly but surely adding accessories to C’s room! The light fixture uses a rechargeable lightbulb, no hardwiring needed, which makes it super easy to install. The paint color on her walls is @sherwinwilliams Malted Milk (a pretty, muted shade of pink). 

I found the wood artwork at a craft fair and as soon as I read what it said, I just knew it was perfect for her room- she has already proven she can do AMAZING things!! 💗🥰

The bed is a Facebook marketplace find and her bedding is from a variety of places (I’ve linked can I can on my @shop.ltk page so follow me there at CraftyTeacherLady
