Cute flower balls

So I have seen so many streamer paper flower balls out in blog land. LOVE them and they look super cute! But every time I tried to make my own, they did not look as super cute. Maybe it was just my opinion, but my daughter said they did look like roses. So any who I had some flowers left over from another project and I thought what the heck :)

 So now Taylor has a little added cuteness in her room!! Thanks people in blog land for giving me cute ideas and then messing them up and moving on to another cute idea !!

Trying to get crafty ;)

 I have decided that since this stay at home mom thing gives me a bunch of time on my hands, I should start doing some crafts !! Well, I should say really that I hate cleaning. Good thing my husband is not super picky on how the house looks:)  My son Phoenix is into EVERYTHING right now (gotta love the toddler stage) So while he is napping I do my little crafts !! 
Right now I'm working on a toy box for my daughter Taylor's room.  I found  this big thing at the GoodWill for like $13.00 !! And it looked perfect to make into a toy box. Only problem it has this strange hole  cut into the side of it..Grrrrr.  I bring it home and my husband looks at me and asks me why I would buy a dog box?????  Really, am I that super smart that I did not know what it was??? Oh well !! Nothing a little trip to Lows wont fix right?

               (I have only painted one layer and this is the color Taylor picked out)

So here is a picture of what it looks like now in all it's UGLY glory !! I hope to have it done by this weekend !! Wish me luck ;)
