Day 8: Almost there!


Getting closer! Actually, very close! Today was a wonderfully productive Sunday. Chris and I went to church at 9, went to Starbucks after and read the paper, got a TON of groceries (it's been a while!), then came home and made marshmallows, granola, and rearranged some of our cabinets. Then, when all that was done, it was only 2! So I decided what better to do next than work on the wine label thing! I really got into it, and Chris got into football. Before I knew it, it looked like this:



Only one little corner left! I don't have quite the right sized wine labels left to completely finish, and I'm in desperate need of some more Mod Podge, so this is about as far as I could get for now. I guess in the next week or two I'll have to order some Mod Podge and drink some wine :)

Oh and the picture below is of Simon -- he thought the marshmallow goo was just awesome, and got it everywhere! This is just one of the many unusual places he got marshmallow...


Number of wine labels: Lots! Including Newton Chardonnay from Dan and Cheryl for our anniversary :)

Day 7: Long break!

Long break from the project! Busy busy weekends, weddings, visitors, etc! Now that we're home and things are settling in back to normal, it was time to catch back up. Chris played softball tonight, so I put in No Reservations and summoned my creativity. Which came in handy because I'm starting to really have to get creative to get these darn things to fit! If I do this again, maybe I'll do a 10x10 or something :)

Anyway, today's progress: 11 labels, including Rombauer, Rockbare, and Melville.
