Project!



I've been waiting until the last minute on this one.
It hurts me to sew because my back locks up. And now I have carpel tunnel which is getting worse and worse, so I figured I'd get this project done this weekend before my CT gets too unbearable!

So I recovered my glider chair!
It was my grandma's, then she gave it to my mom and now it's mine!
We were considering getting new cushions for it, but at $120 that was WAY out of the question. So I spent $30 on fabric and made it look so much nicer!

Colors are a bit off. It's brown, green and blue with small stripes of cream! I really like it!
Took about an hour and was SUPER Simple to do!!

Plus now I can take them off to wash them if need be. The back cushion I couldn't do that before!

Just one more thing done before baby gets here. 
The swing and playpen/bassinet is set up. All clothes, diapers and blankets are washed. 

Besides packing the hospital bag, diaper bag and installing the car seat base we are all set and ready for this baby!

Which is good because we have 7 December babies born from my group already!!!

I love it! I need to do this with the glider we have. The poor thing has barely been used but our kids did a number on the cream colored cushions :|
