How to re-use your baby’s crib
Your baby has moved into his big boy bed and his crib is just collecting dust and taking up a lot of space. Do you keep looking at it and wonder what to do with it? Here are a couple of great DIY projects to convert your crib into something more useful.
1. CRIB NOTES

Turn it into a kiddies work bench. Love this one. Check out how to do it yourself here
And my favorite has to be this work desk.

Dessert tables for every occasion
Ramadan is a great time to get creative. Have you created any dessert tables for your ghabga ?
Indoor slide
I’m definitely going to get an indoor slide when we build our house. One that I will be able to slide down 😛

Lego walls
I would love to do this for my boys playroom. I would probably only have one wall covered in logo, not the whole room. 🙂

A great take on dessert tables
We have seen a huge rise in dessert tables lately, at baby showers, birthday parties and receptions but rarely do we see a fruit and vegi table. A savvy mom came up with this great idea for her son’s birthday. Instead of having the kids load up on sugar and sweets she arranged an assortment of fruits and vegetables in a fun way that was both appealing for the kids and their parents.
What do you think of the gorgeous artichoke and purple cabbage arrangements ? I LOVE IT!!
