Feeling Creative

I am starting to make things again. Not sure why I fall out of love with crafting throughout the year, but apparently I do. Maybe it's seasonal? Anyway, I have been making quite a few things as of late. Here is one I am particularly proud of. I call it Cast Adrift. Normally most of things I make will be for sale on my Facebook page but this one I am keeping.

Make that flamingo sing!

Pinterest. Love it. Like everyone else, I have pinned WAY too many crafts onto my boards. So Loli and I have decided to do a couple of crafts a week so that we can get some of them finished. The first one that I was dying to tackle was the bedazzling of the lowly yard flamingo. I have a set and have been wanting to do something with them for a while, and what better than to make them more fabulous than they already are! On Pinterest, the person uses little stick on rhinestones. I didn't think those would weather well, so I chose to go down a somewhat different path. I will be posting pics of Rosy the Flamingo (name courtesy of Loli) later on.

Logan's Photoshoot

She had a photoshoot with Kate Moore on Thursday. I think it went well. She had a lot of fun and got a lot of cute pics out of it :)

I will upload more once I have them re-sized :)

Trick-or-Treat!

Stumbled upon this bag @ Barnes & Noble. Proceed go to UNICEF.

Luau Lamenting

16 Days until the party. Already burnt out. I keep telling myself that I won't do this the next year, then it happens. I see an idea or in this case Logan comes up with it and it just snowballs. The ideas, one after the other, just keep forming. Then, control is lost. Don't get me wrong, I do love throwing these things and I love all things creative so it allows me to create things for the party. Its just stressful. Amy and I have a few more long nights and all the decorations will be done. I attempted the cake last night (2nd attempt) and I achieved the colors I was looking for but the cake itself turned out wrong. The texture was off. So I will be attempting #3 this weekend.

I have a blog.

Oh wow. Now what to say. When I signed up for a blog, I thought the ideas would just flow out onto the page but apparently not. Bloggers block I suppose. I will give this a good thinking and get back.
