I have all this beautiful fabric at my finger tips and all I’m waiting on is new inspiration. Hopefully that inspiration comes soon in the form of the books I ordered from Amazon. I bought a few that had been setting on my wish-list for awhile. I’m glad I waited because I was able to [...]

Last weekend I made mom a crochet tote to carry her stuff around in. Now the only problem is remembering to mail it to her… sorry mom!

There are a few flaws, but over all I’m happy with it
Here are some of the projects I’ve been working on and finally got the pics up. Dish drying mat – Darryl and I don’t have a dishwasher that works so we have to hand wash dishes. It’s not that bad because it’s just the two of us, but I got tired of using all our [...]

I’m not feeling very happy today so Darryl took me out to breakfast and then let me stroll through some thrift stores. I bought some vintage pillow cases and fabric (that I plan on making bags with), this cool bowl with a painted dogwood blossom on it (that Darryl hates), and another basket (for my [...]

I made a grocery bag out of Darryl’s old shirt. I’m pretty happy with it. Before : After :
I love hats!! The first two photos below are hats that I crocheted, the third is one that I bought. I plan on taking the third one apart and try to figure out the pattern. =) **UPDATED** Darryl made me feel very self conscious about my huge head so I took the purple hat photo [...]

And we couldn’t be happier!!! Here are the cards that we made for each other. Darryl made the one on the left, and I made the one on the right. What Darryl lacks in creativity he makes up for in words. I’m not going to tell you what the inside of the card says, but [...]

Thursday was the first time I scrapbooked with a group of ladies, and I have to admit that I really enjoyed myself! I wasn’t ready to leave after the 2 hours so we’re planing another scrapnight hopefully real soon. We’ve decided that the next scrapbooking get together should be more of a full day instead [...]

The “girls” in my dept (back in TN) have started working from home this week. So to help make the transition easier on them (yeah right) I decided to make up little care packages to send them. I figure it’ll help us stay in touch with each other outside of work. Below are the cards [...]

Well today’s project was to turn a shelf into a paper holding shelf for Margaret’s scrap booking stuff. I never realized the cost of simple materials for a simple project. I went to Home Depot and purchased 3 maple boards that were of good size and some screws. I managed to get 9 14″x13″ boards [...]
