One project down....

Well...it took a while, but I finally got all of these frames hung up. It's a project I've been thinking about for a long time...and thanks to my very good friend Jackie...we got it done! (we did it last month, but I forgot to blog about it). So THANK YOU JACKIE! It wasn't easy with hammers, measuring tapes, nails, and 3 little kids running around! I couldn't have done it without her! Okay - so some of them look crooked in this picture...but I swear they look straight in real life!
