Monster



A few weeks ago my friend posted a "Monster Hat" on her blog and it was so cute. Unfortunately, they are so popular with the lady that makes them that she was way backordered until December.
Anyhow, I really wanted it for Trevs Halloween Costume because I hate spending a lot of money on the cheap made ones at the store that are not really even cute. So I decided to search on Etsy for something like that cute hat and this is what I found. It was in different colors, but the lady was willing to do a custom order for me!

The link to this style hat is:

The link to her Etsy store is:

In a nutshell, I spent $22 and I now have the main piece to his costume and a way stinkin' cute hat for the winter. Not to mention to finish off his costume I tore up an old pair of jeans of his. He has an olive green t-shirt and I am going to paint his face green.

Thanks Mameneth!

Project Trevor's Bedroom

So this is my latest project. I fell in love with this bed at pottery barn, but I wasn't ready to spend $1000. My awesome dad took a look at the bed in the magazine and said, "Hey I can make that". $27 later he made the headboard. $30 later I did the custom crackle paint and now he has a flipping way cute bed if I may say:) Side note, the bed at pottery barn was headboard and footboard, but this was way cheap in comparison.

His bed skirt was from his custom crib set that my mom had made and we converted it to a twin bedskirt. $0

The pinstripe sheets were on clearance at Target for $12.

And the Quilt and Sham were at Target for $35.

For $100 basically, I think we did an awesome job for my sweet Trev
