craft time step one and step two

this girl lacks motivation. i can come up with great craft ideas, but then i just make my mom do the dirty work. i am attempting a new approach...blog about it and then actually follow through. i know, i know... you are all thinking (my one blog follower)i should be keeping myself busy with projects for baby, but i really want to do some painted pillows.

i love the idea of painting numbers on them and putting them outside on my front porch, on the bench that I don't have yet.

Step Two:
Set deadline and make a list of materials.
Deadline: April 10th
List:

1. pillows (preferably cheap or buy fabric and make the pillow case)
2. paint brush
3. black paint
4. stencils (or wing it, can I find stencils big enough)
