Another sneak peak....

Things are crazy here now (but I find time to blog...lol)...in final preparations for Molly's party tomorrow I am working hard and also with the Ultimate Blog Party today I am trying to keep up on stuff there...big sigh...Ok so here are a few other things I have been working on for the party prep....But 1st here is the April Fools Joke we woke up to today!

After playing outside in our light jackets earlier in the week...snow again...sigh


All the kids had funny hats at their placemats this morning...they loved them!




Sprinkles in the yogurt this morning...lol

Ok on to the fun stuff...I needed something to hang the girls tutu's on and i have been looking around the house for something...came up empty handed...went to Homegoods looking for something the other night and found this beauty (broken in 1.2 at the time) in the clearance section.


Sports themed....had hubby glue it back together...

Then used my FREE Sample of Valspar Paint in an eggshell color

And painted that baby...Oh did I mention the rack  was only $ 10.00 CHaChing!

Looking better already.....then with some ribbon and a flower...got this...
Not bad for $ 10 and the girls can use it for their dress up stuff when all is said and done.




Each girl will be getting a tutu, headband, and wand...


How cute are these popcorn cones I made up too....SO easy!

More to come...have a great day all!
