My three boys LOVE Mario Cart, so after I found these cute Mario pajama bottoms, 

I needed to make matching tops. I used white t-shirts to make the custom tops.

I got this idea from Inger Erickson.

Another great Christmas Idea

I found this great door in Ennis, Montana.

We drove by an antique shop and this door was outside, leaning against the wall. It was really, really dirty, but I LOVED it at first sight. Previously it was the door to the chicken coup. My sweet husband tied it to the top of our Tahoe with little resistance... I'm sure he was afraid to ask what I was planning on doing with an old door!

With a little TLC, lots of soap, sand paper, polyacrylic clear coat and new chicken wire, it looks great!
