Overload of Projectness Excitement

I like the think I am creative..but the world wide life of blog has proved me otherwise. I can spend HOURS looking at the ideas of others. Here is just a few of the hundreds that are turning my mind and itchin to be done!


This ribbon holder

This ladder. I have been wantin to do this for 2 years now. Pretty sure I have enough 2x4 wood left from my dumpster dive!

JEALOUS

SO a long time ago I heard the most perfect fairy tale story EVER! I say it is the ONLY story that nearly provoked me to consider online dating...then just seconds later my pride returned and I cast the thought aside. I don't wanna type the whole story but these 2 met online. He is an Idaho rancher and he is over 5'10! This is how he proposed to her!! SO JEALOUS!!!!



And after seeing this picture and hearing the story I am pretty sure I am NOT EVER getting married...cuz this chick took the guy that was supposed to be mine. Thanks alot dumb girl.

Falllllll Creation

This is ONE o my favorite things...it is a tree that I made and I decorate it for each season as the centerpiece on my table. Up until recently it was just some silver branches that i stuck in a vase. I have been meaning to make it look more tree like and it suddenly came to me one day when I was takin the trash out. "hey, this martinelli bottle is the perfect height! So I used a little creativity some paper mache and here is how it turned out!!


SO yesterday I was feeling the need for some fallage and so I went out and gathered some leaves for the tree.



And here it is. I promise it looks better on the table but I am no lighting expert when I comes to pictures.

PS I am back from AFrica...check out my fecebook for some safari pictures and such!!

HaLlOWeens Doings

I DOOO love Halloween the sad part is that no one seems to enjoy it for the same reaons I do.....trick o treatin, making cool scarecrows for your porch....

It is days like this I wish I had kids because they understand what fun is. When I mention making a cool scarecrow to adults you can bet nobody thinks it is a fun idea. I find the same results with trick or treatin. Growing up is sooo over rated. But I vowed to never let it stop me..so I made one alone...and LOVED it!!

Anyhow, this cool little guy cost me $2 for the mask. A WAY fun thing to do with kids. It will be a tradition in my house FOR SURE.

I created his eyes bug eye from some marshmellows and markers...but the best part can only be seen in the living room of the house.....

That is right...he even has a but crack!!!! This is my kinda scarecrow.

Recent DOingS

This was one o my fav new tablecloths I sewed. I LOVE it. By far my favorite.


A closer look at the fabric and you will know why


I figured this was so appropriate for harvest season and I kept it on my table for the last few months of summer till fall came.

Few more Halloween doings

I got this skull at Big lots for $8!! I immediatetly fell in Love with it because it is so anatomically correct for a decoration. The human body is amazing and this skull was the best I have seen.


This was a star my roomie Jillian Moge Poged with some craft paper. Also a fun kid project! I have seen them done for Christmas too and they are really cute.
