Today I am working on some crafting, redoing centered around my desk chair. I have had the idea for a long time, to recover our ugly, well-used desk chair.

I just couldn't wait any longer, couldn't allow myself to be distracted any longer. I had.to.get.crafty!! I love the word "JOY" all year long, but especially at Christmas, and I have been loving the decorated letters I have been seeing around the blog world. So, I decided to give it my own spin. I started with MDF letters from HL, some jute, scrapbook paper, spray adhesive, mod podge, and of course some hot glue. First the J. I figured this would be the easiest to cover with the ...
