Just felt like blogging...

Today marks the last day I have to stay at work until 10 or 11pm! Yeay! I set everything up for lab tomorrow so I can just go in, run an experiment, and leave, so hopefully I'll be out at a decent time! Even just to see the sunshine would be good!!

I also got my order from Popalicioustoo today!!! I love love love love love that store!!!! In fact, I loved my order so much that I had to go back and get more! Here's a link.... oh... it is linked to their name :) haha- I am still figuring out this blogging thing... Tonight I worked on my layout so it didn't look so terrible!!! I have to figure out how to make the tables not opaque, but I'm too tired to do it right now... Maybe tomorrow morning I will take pictures of the awesome stuff I got :)

On a sadder note, I have to pay my respects to Michael Jackson. He was a great inspiration to many and his music really opened the doors for some of the other genres. Even though we really haven't heard from him in the past few years, or at least, heard anything positive, it's sad to know that he'll never be able to influence music and people in the same way again.

We went to dinner tonight at Friday's and they played a few of his songs... This made me want to go out dancing tonight because I can just imagine that all the places will be blasting his music up and down the street and he had some great great dance songs! But I was a good girl and went home... It's almost midnight, but I've only been here like 45 minutes and need to unwind!! So I'm going to read some blogs and call it a night. Nighty nite :)

Kaelynn's project- Finished!!!

Here are some pictures of the finished Wicker Drawer Set!

Isn't it adorable? I didn't want to make it too baby-ish because I wanted her to be able to use it for a loooong time. Oh, did you see Hello Kitty? :) hehe. Just had to add that in there. And did I mention, I love bows and ribbon??? Couldn't tell, could ya :)

Wedding Day

Today I'm going to a wedding for Matt's cousin. So, of course, I had to practice my card-making skills... (Which aren't many!!!)

And here's a swatch of fabric from the dress I'm wearing. Isn't it pretty? It's so not me, so I don't know why I like it!! But it's shiny and fun- it's a handkerchief dress- hide those extra pounds... well, maybe not hide them, but at least cover em up in pretty fabric! lol

Hm... looks like it needs ironing... Guess I'm off to do that!!

Yeay!

Yeay! I've posted my first wood item on Etsy! I think I started thinking about how this would look a few weeks ago! It's cool to see it really materialize...

Pink Hello Kitty Jewelry Trinket Treasure Box with Mirror

I love the mirabou :)

I got these papers from a Hello Kitty origami pad I had from way back when, aren't they so cute?

Last night I was trying to make another one of those wooden signs. It looked really cool. Before I decided to coat the whole thing in varnish!! Well, the varnish wasn't the problem... It was how much I put on!! I basically slathered the whole thing up and left it on my craft sheet- but it pooled onto the back of what was to be a two sided sign... So that wasn't good!! I ended up throwing it out... Yes, another thing I had to throw away!! I have another piece of wood though, so hopefully I can just make it again today. I am also really close to finishing two other pieces, so that's great! It is kind of fun working on more than one thing at once. But I wonder if I worked on the same kind of piece and just did a bunch of them if it would go faster. Hmm... I will have to think about that. The auction for the charity event is tomorrow, so I'm trying to get stuff listed in my store so that it's kind of ready if people meander there on Saturday... That and tomorrow night I start working until like 11pm at work. Ugh!!! 2-11.... I will have to do all my crafing tomorrow morning! I was trying to find something to be able to take all of my stuff with me, but so far, I've only acquired a cropper hopper for all my papers, ok, not all of them, but most of them!! Oh, and those tackle boxes for my embellishments. Matt says he has a bag I could use... Maybe I will see tonight if everything will fit in there. haha- Crafting at my desk at work :)
