Goal Fail? Or redesign

I wanted to post this idea I had, that I think I saw some where but don't have a good enough memory to tell you where. I had found a frame that had been thrown out and I painted orange. I was going to turn it into a organizer thingy for my desk area. Still got the idea but haven't been able to do anything. I got sick :( boo and I have so much to do.

I was trying to be professional and stay consistent in my blogging.  I think I have failed at least in what I wanted to do.  I have the hardest time doing nothing even when I can't do much.

 So I have laid here and painted another purse.  I bought a few of these purses clearance because they were plain canvas with a pink flower that I removed.  I splattered paint and dye first  .Then taped off lines and spray painted the black stripes and then went back over it with my design with fabric paint.  STAR SHINE  tada!!!  I napped in between the paint drying. 

I hope it's cool, my cool meter is a little dated and sometimes gets stuck in the 80's.  I got a thumbs up from my daughter so I must be getting close

Wow! what an exciting few days!

So it has been busy few weeks and there are a few pics to show. First off I made a few more lanterns and stuck them in my tree. Aren't they pretty?












I have also been busy helping my daughter plan her 13th birthday party. She wanted to be the one to plan and she wanted it scaled down to just a small sleepover with 4 of her friends. So I made a giant 13 out of dollar tree foam board and duct tape. She loved it!!

She also let me design the candy table. Well actually it's our woodstove and I jazzed it up a bit with some pink and purple. We also (well, I mean me) found these bags with jammies and slippers and pedicur set already in it for like three bucks a piece last Jan. Totally stoked about that find and the girls loved them!!!! They had a great time talking, watching movies, painting nails and just being 13.

I am also working on helping my niece plan a party as well and hope to post a few pics of that when done.

Oh one last thing, and I am sooo excited about this!!! Some wonderful person who has an awesome blog is going to feature me. YAY I'm so touched I almost cried when I read it. Somebody likes me!!!! So check her out .....that is as soon as I figure out how to paste her link. Her blog is called "Ready Set Craft".
