So, here we have two beanbags that David and I made at the weekend. An old pair of jeans was the donor material; the same pair that was used for Will's christmas doll's dungarees actually. Filled with an opened, but not very popular packet of dried beans. David did nearly all the sewing himself with just a little help from me along the way. He was very pleased with himself. He and Will enjoyed trying to throw them in to a box, just as soon as they were finished.
A fire, made by daddy and Will out of wood to replace the wood and paper one they made before. Will loves painting pictures, but he loves making things and then painting them even more. This morning after breakfast he painted one of the empty tile boxes blue for a kennel for one of his toy dogs.
Yes, I did say EMPTY tile box!!!
It has only taken 3 years to pluck up the courage to have a go at tiling the splashback in the kitchen!!!
Before....
and after....
Just a few final touches needed to the grouting and sealant. It makes such a difference to the room!
And what is this left in the coat cupboard? I thought you'd emptied it Rob, before we started painting?
Oh, I see! New bunkbeds for the boys!!!
And Indiana David and the legend of the newly tiled kitchen. Here he is wrestling with a rubber snake, aided by his faithful side kick Louis!

It's great that your kids tidy themselves neatly away into cupboards at the end of the day!
OOOoh! the tiles looks FAB!!! Well done :)
Tiles look great. Sometimes it takes a while to get round to these things doesn't it, and then afterwards you wonder why you didn't do it before? lol. Which reminds me...our hall which needed decorating when we moved in 12 yrs ago, still undone, ho hum.
