Brothers: Best Buddies

Nathanael and Teddy really are best buddies. They don't always get along perfectly, but they will always have a special friendship. So, I thought these "wall words" would be so cute for their room. :-)

I recently found a cute car and truck themed quilt for a great price on eBay for Teddy's bunk, and it came with an adorable matching window valance. I love eBay sometimes. ;-)Other times, when selling, it can be annoying. Ha

I think the window treatment adds a really cute and cheerful touch to their room. :-)

Vintage Plates

I love vintage dishes, and was running out of space to store or display them. So, Ben hung these "new" plates I bought from a local vintage boutique recently. We used wire plate hangers with springs on the back.

Teddy discovered them the next morning, and he was all excited. Haha It was cute. He looks at them from the table and points at them every time he eats now. ;-) Maybe the idea of plates hanging up there amuses him. Ha

Happy Valentine's Day!

Cardboard Playhouse :-)

On one of our thrifting adventures today, we found a brand new, still in the box, cardboard playhouse kit from JcPenney. :-) It was only $12, which I thought was a good deal. The boys began to have a blast with it from the minute I started putting it together. ha

I think it will take them quite a while to get all the coloring done. Which is good. ;-) I had to keep myself from supervising the coloring too much, and hindering their imperfect creativity. Ha

I think they will get many hours of imaginative play time out of this!

"Bye, bye! Come back soon!" ;-)
