My son asked me if I could look up "Little Passports" last night. Apparently he saw a commercial for it at my mom's house. I like the concept, but was kind of blown away at the price! I am thinking about trying to DIY it, but I am not sure if my son would be disappointed by my efforts?
Anyway, that's what I am currently researching to gear up to DIY.

I'm going to be starting a quilt and a crochet blanket, plus some crocheted hats, for our baby due this fall. Just waiting until next week when we have our anatomy scan. My toddler also has a mini arm chair that needs a new cover, so that's on the diy list as well.

Currently in the middle of DIY'ing painting my cabinets (since two summers ago...) and on Tuesday I'll be ripping up my own carpet in preparation for flooring install.

I am working on sliced agate pictures like these. The total cost is under 50 as opposed to hundreds if I bought them.

In our new house we will be DIYing my vanity and our walk-in closet setups with Ikea. Currently planning that out and figuring out some hacks.

@looch: My daughter also wanted Little Passports after seeing it - what a great idea to try to DIY it, I'm totally going to look into that as well!

This post reminded me that I really need to get going on my pile of clothes to alter. I worked on it during nap time and now three pairs of pants are done. Three sweaters to go.
I'm also trying my hand at gardening for the first time this year and so far seed starting indoors isn't working too well.

I should add we are always working on our house, just finished painting my sons new room and are slowly decorating to get it ready for him to move in this summer. And in the next month we have to get all our flower, veggie, and berry gardens ready for growing!

I just redid this dresser in my kitchen. I've been meaning to for 3 or 4 years. I'm the worst for picking up old furniture with big plans to redo them and then getting distracted, so pretty happy to have gotten this done!

I just made this taggie for DS...the only "crafty" thing I've done in the 6 months since he's been born 
@Coral: I love that! Probably a dumb question, but are those actual agates or prints?

@Kitkat: Not a dumb question at all! They are actual rock slices. The pic from above is one I found online, but I will definitely share when I am done with mine.
Also, the blanket is adorable!

@Coral: I love those! I saw some like them in Home Goods a few weeks ago and I was tempted. Please share how yours turn out!

I'm painting a dresser and a doll's rocker. I also plan on putting together a DIY Lego table. I very well might end up wainscoting + adding trims to the whole bottom floor of our house because the cost of hiring someone to do just the trims was ridiculous!

@Kitkat: that tag blanket is awesome!! I'm not crafty and spent $20 at Target for one for my little guy. 
I am trying to get my dad to build a sand & water table and a learning tower for me. Kind of sort of counts as a DIY.

Just clothes for my baby right now. Hopefully more outdoor projects soon!!

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: thanks! The one at target is what inspired me to make it And recruiting other people to DIY totally counts in my opinion

Kind of - my husband had spent the weekend assembling a swingset. So not 100% a DIY but it came in about 600 pieces and he's put in about 15 hours so far.

@Kitkat: @Pancakes: Just wanted to share the finished product! They aren't perfect but I am probably the only one who notices the imperfections.

@Mrs. Oreo: Thanks! I was going for a bit of a wider gap between the frames but my calculations were off.

@wrkbrk: cute! Do you know where MIL got the stars? I need to find some to tie together the little art installation I'm doing in DD3's room - a unicorn head, cloud shelf, and a twinkle twinkle painting.

@PinkElephant: Thank you! I think Michaels. They were just plain unfinished wood.
