A billion things you could do with a pallet, what do you think I'm creating?

I found a few pallets and had some ideas in mind and I'm just now getting to one of them...2-months later! 

I shaved the back side off of this one so it wouldn't be so deep and I cut off a few slats so it wouldn't be so wide.  

I sprayed some primer on and then painted each slat a different color. I used the paint samples from lowes that were 2.96 a piece.  

Of course I'm planning on using this in the playroom for bags, dress up outfits, and much more.   I think I may add some hooks on the lower end as well. I'm so happy with this piece. 

Stay tunes for more pallet projects to come....

I originally saw this idea online but I did things a little different then what I read so I thought I'd share my techniques to make this easy and  satisfying :). My first step was to paint the entire wall, basically bc it was a flat paint before and I changed it to eggshell.   Obviously walls vary in size so you will just need to determine how close you want the stitching.   We tied a pencil at the end of a rope and then tacked it in the corner then drew from one side to the other to get the long line.  Make sure u hold the pencil outright and not slanted at all!  Then do the other line in the opposite corner.   I traced the line with a thin paintbrush using a gray paint we had already.  It's ok if the line isn't exactly the same thickness ! If u look close you can see mine varies in thickness.  The best thing I did was make a stencil from a scrap piece of cardboard for the stitching.  And I didn't...

Cheesecake Factory chicken artichoke soup

Image
Went To the cheesecake factory last week during Christmas vacation my favorite restaurant to go eat and I tried a soup that I have never tried before and it was so so so delicious, My mother-in-law and I looked up the recipe on Google to see if we could find a replica of it we found something similar and of course I came home and made it on New Year's Eve night.... One thing that was different about the recipe is I know that there were peas and red peppers instead of green peppers, I also had to add a lot more salt, But I suggest adding a little bit at a time to see your liking. Here is the website or blog that I found it on and a picture of my soup as I was making it http://mrsmonaghan.blogspot.com/2011/03/cheesecake-factory-recipes.html?m=1
