Book Slings

Freddy and I spent the past few days in Orlando at the Southern Baptist Convention. It was a great time of fun and encouragement. There were 9 of us from church that went and we had a good time. The kids stayed home with Mary and Lydia. We are so grateful for them being here and helping us out. It was a nice "vacation."

You may remember a while back I said I was going to make a few book slings to help keep our books in a contained place. Well a few weeks ago my friend Melissa came over and together we made 4 slings. It was wild in our apartment. Melissa has a little boy, Jonah, that is a month younger than Lillie and Elliott. They all played while me and Melissa sewed. It was fun. Check out her blog for pictures of our sewing day.

So for a month now these great book slings have been folded up on my dresser because I could not find the right hardware around here to hang them. In Orlando the house we stayed in was right next to a Lowes so I popped in there and bought what I needed to finish this project.

So here is the finished project. Our big gate used to sit up against this spot on the wall. I sold it last week on Craigslist to make a spot for our book slings. I'm happy with the way they turned out.
