Proud of myself

Last summer I bought a table and chair set at a yard sale. The table is 6' and there are 8 chairs. Everything was really sturdy and well built but the covers on the chairs were stained. (In fact, the woman I bought them from gave me the 8 seat covers she'd bought to cover them.) So I wanted to recover them in vinyl so that the seats would wipe clean instead of anything my children spilled on them soaking into the fabric.

Here are the before and after pictures. I was pretty impressed with the improvement.

I bought fabric and my mom, brother, sister, and nieces came over. My mom showed us how to do the first one and then Josh helped me finish the rest. Thanks for all the help guys! I love the new covers.

A Mom Moment

I was just hit with a "Mom moment." So you know those? The times when everything seems to be going fine, and then in the space of a split second everything collapses around you. 12 different things seem to go wrong simultaneously and each one of them needs your undivided attention right now. Yeah, that was me as I was trying to upload the pictures below. Thankfully I think the "Mom moment" (which unfortunately can last for extended periods of time despite the name) is over.
