DIY {club foot} Brace Cover

Posted on May 1, 2015 by Roeshel

Sweet grand baby boy was born with club feet and after months of casting then surgery, he graduated to special shoes and a bar.

Before…

And sometimes that bar conks him on the head. Ouch. So I made up a little cushion/cover and wanted to share here for others who may be searching to cover their baby’s Ponseti bar.

Materials I used:

pipe insulation
fabric
Velcro one wrap

What I did:

I cut a piece of pipe insulation to fit the brace between the shoes (6 inches).

Next, I cut a piece of scrap fabric 8×9 inches. (It’s a snug fit so I’d suggest doing 8×11 inches instead…a little extra to tuck in.)

Then just ironed/sewed the borders.

I cut two pieces of the Velcro to fit around the pipe insulation snuggly.

Assembly: Insert the brace into the pipe insulation. Wrap the fabric around the pipe insulation, tucking the ends into the open side. Secure with the Velcro.

Optional: If you’re more of a sewing expert than me, you could do snaps or sew on velcro.

Now, the brace has a bit of cushioning. If there was only a way to cushion those hard soled shoes.

Ps. Yes, his shoes are on backwards. Doctors orders, part of the treatment. Isn’t he the cutest?

Drop Zone Makeover {Back to School Organization} Before & After

Posted on August 6, 2014 by Roeshel

It’s back to school season! It’s the perfect time to re-think the “drop zone” to organize back packs, shoes, coats…all the things that get unloaded when walking in the door.

As a part of the Lowe’s Creative Ideas team, one of this month’s challenge options included a back to school organization theme. Since my sister is still recovering and her little one will be starting pre-school in a couple of weeks (AND her birthday is right around the corner), I surprised her with a 6-hour back door entryway makeover.

Here are the before pictures: this little space just wasn’t functioning well as an organized drop zone with storage options.

First up, we emptied the area then I freshened up the walls with paint to give the space more light and a bigger neutral vibe. I used Valspar Signature (Paint + Primer). Color is silver leaf. Isn’t it pretty? Just a touch of a gray-blue tint. Best part? It covered up the raspberry-painted paneling in just two coats.

While the paint was drying, I assembled the furniture consisting of a storage bench and cubby shelves. I even had a helper…

Once the paint was dry (use a fan to speed along the drying process), I added some coat hooks for back packs, coats and hats. Using a level (and screwing into the walls studs/using wall anchors) to secure the coat racks.

Since the previous window treatment on the door wasn’t a good fit, I replaced the curtain on the door with a new roman shade.

Once more, the before when opening the door…

After…

Then added in some pretty accessories and wall art.

And now…the room feels bigger, fresher, prettier.

My nephew started adding his shoes to bins and hanging his backpacks the minute we finished up. No more hunting for lost shoes and his backpack is ready to go. He also grabbed his ‘camera’ to take a few shots of his own.

My DIY and photography assistant for the day…

I’m considering incorporating a cork board for displaying his papers and drawings to the basement door. A project for another day.

Get the look!

Storage Cubes
3 – Cube Bench
Inspirational Decorative Canvases {yellow and gray} 1 – 2 – 3
Light Filtering Roman Shade {driftwood}
4 Hook Mounted Coat Rack
Beige Fabric Bin
Beige Fabric Milk Crates
Succulent Garden
Valspar Signature Paint + Primer {Silver Leaf/eggshell finish}
Limited Editions self-adhesive Decorative Hearts
Garden Treasures decorative pillow
beige floor mat

I received a Lowe’s gift card to put towards this challenge. Opinion and above idea is 100% my own. More DIY ideas at Lowe’s Creative Ideas or follow Lowe’s on Instagram, Pinterest and sign up for the Creative Ideas magazine and app.

Lighted PVC Candy Canes DIY Christmas Home Decor

Posted on December 3, 2013 by Roeshel

These PVC lighted candy canes are a fun Christmas home decor idea and pretty way to greet guests at the front door. Welcome, friends!

{a big thanks to mom for letting me decorate her front door}

{Christmas wreath and snowman welcome mat also found at Lowe’s}

Materials for a set of two:

Two 2″or 3″ (that’s how they’re specifically labeled) PVC drain with 5 SS strain
Two 2″ PVC P-trap with union
Two 2″ x 2″ PVC solid pipe in 2 ft section (stock)
Two 2″ x 22.5D street elbow
sanding block/sand paper
FrogTape®
Valspar Primer for Plastic
Valspar Outdoor White spray paint
Valspar Red spray paint
Two strings of 35 white Christmas lights
Rocks/gravel for weighting the bottom
Two bows

Tutorial: Attach pieces to create a candy cane shape in this order: drain on bottom, 2 ft. PVC pipe, P-trap, elbow.

Lightly sand and wipe clean each piece of PVC. Spray each assembled PVC candy cane with primer and let dry. Give each candy cane two coats of white spray paint. Allow to dry between each coat. Remove the bottom pieces (the drain/stand). Wrap FrogTape around each candy cane to create a twisted/striped pattern. It gets tricky around the bends but just do your best. Mine are imperfect but it doesn’t take away from the final result. Imperfection adds character, right? Using your thumbnail or a credit/gift card, burnish the edge of the tape. Rub the edges to ensure paint doesn’t seep under. Give the candy canes two coats of red spray paint. Carefully remove the FrogTape before the second coat of spray paint dries. Allow spray paint to fully dry. Drill holes where desired along the candy cane. I drilled mine randomly in the white sections. Remove the plastic/PVC shavings. (Note: Great gift idea for a DIY lover! The Rockwell Jawhorse is awesome for DIY projects…it held my PVC in place perfectly while I drilled!) Remove the bottom drain/stand. Keep the plug on the outside and push the entire string of lights through a hole that’s been drilled near the bottom of the candy canes right above the drain area. Work the lights up through the candy cane. I used a thin yardstick to help. Fill the bottom drain/stand with a handful of rocks for weight and reattach to the candy cane. Attach bows, plug in and admire your work! So festive and welcoming! They’d look pretty indoors with a red and white theme too…

Silhouette Portrait Giveaway

Posted on April 18, 2013 by Roeshel

299

The promotion with GREAT savings ($7.50 for vinyl and transfer paper) using code “SHOWOFF” at checkout runs through 4/26.

This giveaway is now closed. Winner is Ruth: “I have been wanting to add a compass rose to an end table in my living room, so I think that would be my first project.” Congratulations, Ruth! I hope to see the table! I will contact Ruth by email.

One of the things I love about owning my Silhouette is the ability to create cute customized vinyl labels…

labeled storage dresser in hallway

And since welcoming CocoRosie to our family recently….

{awe! those eyes!!}, anyway…I wanted to transfer pet food to an airtight container rather than dishing out from a pet food bag. Nothing pretty about those, ya know? I love glass jars but the cat food and dog food look very similar, so cute labels are a great solution.

It’s super easy to design my labels using the Silhouette Studio and purchasing/ downloading ‘silhouette’ shapes (and extra fonts) from the Silhouette store. Most run around .99 and stay in my ‘library’ for repeated use.

Cutting the vinyl is a cinch too…just load the vinyl, set the blade and click “send to Silhouette” to cut.

Peel away the un-used/negative part of the vinyl design (also called weeding).

You’ll have a vinyl “sticker” but peeling away the letters and placing by hand for me means creating a slanted label that isn’t ‘level’ and guessing on spacing. This is where transfer paper comes in handy. It “transfers” the vinyl design while keeping the design exactly spaced/level as it shows on the paper.

How Transfer Paper Works: Simply cut a piece of transfer paper to size.

Peel away the waxy backside (the transfer paper is the sticky/tacky paper).
Place the transfer paper over the vinyl design you just weeded.
Rub (I use a gift card/credit card).
Then peel the backing away (waxy thicker paper). The design is now stuck (backward) to the transfer paper.
Place the design/transfer paper onto the glass. Rub with a credit card.
Peel away transfer paper. Vinyl design stays adhered to the glass.

Here’s what I whipped up in less than 30 minutes {containers are from Garden Ridge and scoops from a local commercial restaurant supply store}:

Labeled Pet Food Containers

Black and Decker is one of my favorite companies, I am so glad they helped sponsor this giveaway. Not only are the employees kind and fun to hang out with, but there products are fabulous and their prices are so friendly! The very first tool purchase for our first home was a Black and Decker skill saw… and the first time I used it, was to begin the remodel of our first kitchen… ah those were the good days! Now, few years later, ahem, I have tried several of their tools and one of my favorites their gas free mowers. Be sure to check out their great selection of tools!

Thanks so much to D. Lawless Hardware for supplying such great gift certificates. D Lawless is a great source for affordable hardware, from a cut glass drawer knobs to drawer slides for your homemade furniture. I found them almost 2 years ago when working on our built-in storage project and because of their great prices we were able to get both the hinges and the pulls that I wanted for a steal of a deal. The product that I am dying to buy is their Kitchen Aid lift kit…. great price and SO cool!
