Fill Up Someone's Cup!

Potter's Hand Elementary

So life has been extremely busy and challenging since PHE started up! Which is why I have neglected this blog so badly! I thought I might make up for it with some photos of our new schoolroom!

We were frugal when we put this together too. The tables are old ones we just spraypainted black, the chairs too. The boxes are from Dollar Tree and so are the posters on the wall. The map was a wonderful gift from Grandpa and Grandma!

Not everything is complete yet, but I am so happy with the space...it makes me smile!

And this is what I try to remember every day....

I am molding our children's hearts for the Master's glory. And that is a big job.

Uno Addicts Anonymous

I think that our little Miss Precious might have a problem....

As these undercover surveillance photos reveal, it appears she has a deep addiction to Uno.

She fell asleep holding the cards.... should we be worried? :)

DIY Doors to Drool Over!

Okay so I finished the DIY Show Off Scavenger Hunt...lots of fun being introduced to so many inspiring blogs! So I thought I would write a quick post about my favorite DIY inspiration from the DIY Show Off. Well, a lot were my favorites, it was hard to choose!:) There are so many talented DIYers out there! But this project spoke to me because much like Jennifer from Sanctuary Arts, I have those same 1970's grade doors. Although, I think mine are uglier...dark brown faux wood grain.

Honestly, if it weren't for her knack for bringing out the beautiful potential in those doors, I probably would have gone and bought new doors from Home Depot. Happily though, we can't quite afford all new doors and so I am going to add some character to mine!

In all reality, I have only gotten to the priming part on ONE door. But cut me some slack please...I do have three children whom I homeschool. My life is quite full and busy! I will get around to updating my doors some day, for now I'll just salivate over Jennifer's :)

DIY Show Off Scavenger Hunt

The DIY Show-Off is a favorite read of mine. I love the inspiring projects people like you and me can send in and, well...show off! :)

I am very competitive by nature, so I LOVE scavenger hunts! Collecting the clues and then putting them together was tons of fun! But if you want to get in on the action, better hurry...I'm sending in my clues now!

Happy Hunting!
