Under Arrest

Crafty, I am not. In fact when friends ask me if I want to come do crafts with them I slightly cringe inside, Why? I am not sure. Perhaps because I am SO NOT a perfectionist that when I'm working on a craft and kind of mess up, I just say oh well and keep going... Then when its all finished it looks nothing like I pictured in my head, and I'm disappointed and swear to never do a craft again.

WELL... I joined Pinterest. And if you are a Pinterest groupie, you understand that by merely pinning amazing craft ideas, you start to think you are a crafty and productive person... even if you sat on your butt pinning the whole naptime..
SO I got the creative bug. And decided to spray paint. Something I have never done before.

And here is my final product. Cosmetically flawed and all. I think its pretty cool. And so do my boys. Bruin catches all the bad guys in it. Woot Woot!




The pink/purple Little Tikes buggy was given to us by our last landlord who was bringing it to the Goodwill. I've never been too gender conscious with my boys stuff so I didn't care and it became the favorite little car (well until we bought Bruin a plasma scooter, but its still number 2).

Next victim: Our red and yellow Dora bike (also from the landlord)...

It looks awesome, great job! I could totally see myself in your words about not being so crafty. :) You don't seem to have any problems though!

Pinterest is rubbing off on me too! I have yet to be brave enough to try spray paint, but that looks awesome. I think even if I scored a pink one I'd turn it into a police car for my girl. haha.
