This past week, the girls and I decided that after 9 weeks of living in a colorless apartment, it was time to decorate! Krissi came up with the idea of tie-dye coffee filters on the wall. This was an all day event! We bought 200 hundred coffee filters, and food coloring. We sat, folded, and dipped all day. The colors and patterns were so cool. No two coffee filters came out looking the same. We mixed colors and came up with so many different ways of how to fold them. After they were dry, we taped them to the wall in our living room. We found posters of our favorite bands and singers, and put those on the wall as well. All the colors go together beautifully. Our living room isn’t so plain and boring anymore.
On the window, we put up Thanksgiving decorations. We put posters in our kitchen and in the hallway of the bathroom. Better late than never, we always say.. so we’re happy that we finally took the time to put up decorations and not live in a colorless place. LOL..
Sam and I are trying to find the time to do arts and crafts. We thought it would be cute to make frames and plaques for the apartment. We figured we can put pictures of all of us in them and write different things on the plaques. Our apartment still needs some décor, so this would be a good start. Who knows what ideas we’ll come up with next..
