So, maybe i have been hiding under a rock, but i have never heard the quote "Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without" untill a few weeks ago at church. We were having a lesson on provident living and someone used that quote. I really liked it and thought it was a great thing to start trying to incorporate into our lives...
Of, course thats when i realized that bella wont be out of the play yard/bassinet and into her toddler bed in time for the baby use it. So, naturally i check craigslist to see if there are any cheap bassinets...that leads to babys r us...which leads to a full on internet search...No, jenna. You do not need a new bassinet! But arent these cute!

Anyways...long story short. I remembered that quote. I thought "ok...how can i do this whith what i've got. Then i came across this picture and remembered that i have some adorable Joel Dewberry fabric that i am not using. Hmmm...i wonder.
If i used this fabric....
And this laundry basket i have lying around...
I cound totally pull off something like this...
And even better, i could take it around the house with me if i needed to. AND the kids wont be as likely to smush, fall on, tug on (etc. etc.) the new baby ; ) I will get you all pics when i get this done!
