DIY DREAM PLAYHOUSE

MY DREAM: As a little girl, I always dreamed of having a playhouse where I could play make believe with my friends.  Once my second daughter arrived, I was finally able to convince my husband and bring my childhood playhouse dreams to life! I was SO excited! I envisioned a tiny white picket fence, window flower boxes, and dutch door. The only problem, there was nothing ready-made to purchase that fit my criteria.

DIY FLOATING HEART MOBILE

This project took me a couple of days to complete, but the finished product is worth the effort! My daughter LOVES to look at all the hearts floating above her while she's on the changing table. Not to mention, the entire thing cost me $5 bucks. Not a bad deal considering how expensive artwork can be. You can custom this however you like, think different shapes! Circles, flowers, squares, bears, any easy shape to trace can be made into this wall art. Enjoy!
