Apparently, I have one, an inner domestic goddess, that is.
Presents purchased,
cards sent,
neighbor gifts delivered,
nativity painted (with chalkboard paint, chalk detail by N and S, this by a woman who sends her kids to preschool so she doesn't have to do crafts)
Hat (almost) knit
Ok, you knew it was too good to be true. I didn't re-upholster the couch myself, just picking the fabric and arranging to have it done (by Hector, in Provo, if you want details let me know, he was great) took me a year.
Partly because I was looking for something that would blend with this chair. But it's finally DONE!
Presents purchased,
neighbor gifts delivered,
Couch re-upholstered.
And I blogged about it.
I amaze myself.
Now if someone would just feed those kids.

Love the chair!!
And yes, you are amazing.
I also love the chalk nativity. Where did you get the pieces? (You didn't cut them out yourself, did you? Cause that would move you into a whole new category of impressiveness.)
I loved your Christmas card! It was so fun to see how much your children have grown. You are so brave to take all of your kids to Prague. John and I went in May and loved it, but figured the kids would have been walked out by the end. Hope you have a fantastic Christmas!
I always love your blog posts! Thanks for making me smile. Merry Christmas!!!
The couch looks great. Did you end up liking it?
So impressed. I often feel like the only anti-crafter in my peer group. It's good to know that someone else pays other people to reupholster things and to do crafts with kids. Thanks for the validation.
No, I did not cut out the nativity. Sheesh...are there people that do that?
And yeah, in the end I lIked the way the couch came out. Wasn't sure until it was in the room, but it adds a lot of warmth and color, which is what I was looking for.
