What I Did Today!

2010-07-26T12:24:00.000-07:00

I have been working on several projects. One is a vintage Hippo dish I turned into a pin cushion. I also used some vintage H.Hobbie wallpaper that used to be in my sisters room when she was little. She is now 37! I put the wallpaper pieces I cut on pieces of wood as new hangable pictures. I will get these things into my Etsy shops soon.

Maker Faire

2010-07-26T09:36:00.000-07:00

My daughter and I volunteered at the Maker Faire yesterday Sat. May 22nd. What a blast! We had so much fun helping all the crafter in the Expo hall and then we got to go to Bizzar Bazzar and see all the fabolously talented artists at work in there. It was right next door at the Swamp-o-Rama where i took off my pants and traded for a comfy skirt. In private of course. We got some great fabric and some other cloths! Awesome idea and we will be going again next year with a ton of cloths. We also did some time in the Maker Shed! I saw Adam Savage (MythBusters) for a minute. Really cool.

I thought I would show you some freebies I got from a great company called FabMo. They go around the Bay Area and collect all the fabric swatches that would be thrown into our landfills otherwise. So I got some great pieces of fabric and I already made a zipper pouch OWL.

Enjoy the pictures I will add more tomorrow!

Quick update first. We got our house and moved in March 27th, 2009. We painted inside and out, fixed up the front yard and got new carpet in the bedrooms where there is no tile. I will post an updated AFTER picture. Thanks to my family for the house it is because of my Mom and Step-father that we are here and we appreciate it so very much.

My Real New House

2009-02-14T19:50:00.000-08:00

So we didn't get the house from my previous blog boohhh whooooo!! But the good news is we got a better house! This one is less move in ready and more work but, its in a cul-de-sac, one story, and full of promise and happiness. I can see my 3 kids dancing around, playing in the court, enjoying our cool new patio etc. I also get to pick a lot of the new stuff myself so its going to be designed by me!!!!
I cant wait I'm so excited. I want to get rid of the tropical tree in the front and the bushes they really don't match the rest of the landscaping and they ruin the view of our front door which will be painted red!!! Let me know what you think!!

I have made a commitment to myself...I will blog everyday...about whatever I want.Mainly I will blog about Crafting and what I am up to.I have soooo many ideas floating around in my crazy brain that I really think it would be great to get it all out in this blog, also it will be beneficial to those who start following my blog. My biggest hope is to inspire people and give them ideas for there own projects.I will be doing tutorials on 100% unique projects.So stay tuned...........

As for today's blog I want to talk about my sweet baby Maddex who's birthday was yesterday Jan. 28th. He is 4 and I cant believe it. It also means that exactly in one month from his B-day is my 34th B-day!!!! Yikes I feel so old. Well actually I don't really feel old at all....I feel like a kid and I feel like my life is just beginning mostly due to my new love of crafting. I have always been an artist but I never knew about the wonderful world of crafting. I am absolutely overwhelmed with ideas and plans on how to turn my LOVE into a business.

Lets take the journey together and hopefully as I learn I can share my success and lessons learned with you.

Here are some pictures of my newest Hair Adornments.....Let me know what you think I would LOVE some feedback good hopefully but I am open to constructive criticism.

Busy and Sick!

2008-11-11T20:22:00.000-08:00

I have been both super busy and SICK!!
I have 4 jobs and I work from home so its hard to get thinks done in a fast fashion. I also have a Autoimmune Disease that can flare up and make me miserable and useless to the world. I also have the 3 kids and they can be a lot.
I have not had any time or energy to craft and I am so upset about that.
I am doing the Bazzar Bizaar on November 30th w/ my fellow SFetsy members and I need to make some stuff and get organized. I wanted to post a few pictures and show off some of my newer/old stuff.
Make sure you come buy my both at BIZ BAZ!!!!
