Back to the grind!

Finally got my groove on again. It can be the hardest thing when your silly little creative mind won't let you focus for justoneminutethankyouverymuch!

Breathe.

But now I have pretty things to show for all of my mental anguish, so I guess it evens out?

I wanna be a super model...

And my hair will shine like the seeeeeee-eeeea!

There is my application

Lost my Much-ness

Thank you very much to Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" for getting me out of the funk I was in.

I had "lost my muchness" as they say and I think I might have recently found it again! As of May 1st (eeeek! Saturday!) I will be officially entering back into the world of DIY and craft that I have long been absent from. Looking at my Etsy page has been a pathetic experience since the New Year and it is about time for that to stop. Brush the dust off of the ol' sewing machine and rev up the glue gun- it's about to get crazy in here!!!

My grand idea you ask? Behold! "The year of MAKE!" -or- "52 Weeks of MAKE!" -or- "Something more clever than that!" (name TBD). But what I do know is that starting on Saturday I will be enlisting the help of the craftiest lady I know (my mom, of course) as well as several other special guests in the weeks that follow to help me turn this poor excuse for a creative lady back into the Reigning Queen of Craft!!! One amazing thing a week and hopefully that will be enough to kick start the engine and light the fire to a full blown craft-strava-ganaza!

Oh, and don't forget to go the the Maker's Faire people. It's fanfriggintastic.

Stay tuned. The fits gonna hit the shan.

Oh, and by the way. I just re-read the original Lewis Carroll version of Alice- it's wonderful.

From November to April Ain't Bad

I got myself to work today with the hope of putting up some Mother's Day windows (and yes, I am going to completely ignore the time lapse and pretend that I am really going to do this blog thing)and playing with Tyler Florence product in preparation for Earth Day!!! Look at these cool water bottles we got just in time for the festivities on Thursday- put 'em in your fridge on Sunday and you have one a day!



Also, the Mother's Day windows were very fun to put up. I feel quite proud that they don't look as crafty as they usually do. The product is all Tyler Florence- great stuff for gift ideas- glad to have good stuff finally!



More later? We'll see.
