Can you believe it's December already? It seems like the summer was just yesterday! I had intended to put up our new tree after our Thanksgiving feast, however, as you know I was down with the sickness. So we got to put it up yesterday! I have the scars to prove it! I only got … Continue reading Happy December!

DIY: Glitter Ornaments – Mixing Glitter
Well hello sweetie, fancy meeting you here. Little different, eh? I've changed my name, after all, what do I blog about more than glitter? Well besides Doctor Who (in which this post will contain both!)... wibbly wobbly bloggy woggy. The layout is not agreeing with me, so that must remain the same... for now.

DIY: Best Methods for Glitter Ornaments
Ok, lets get real for a moment. Sandy has officially made landfall just above the Maryland and Delaware shores in southern New Jersey. She has been beating my area with heavy winds and rain thus far and has been completely destroying shore landmarks along our coast.

DIY: Have a BOOty-full Halloween!
We're hunkering down and preparing for Sandy. State of emergencies have been issued, people are running amuck through the grocery stores, people are buying the usuals (milk, eggs, water, gas)... and I'm sitting here eating and crafting.

Anyway, I used to do this when I was younger, but obviously Pinterest was never around to share it so I was excited to pick it back up when I saw this tutorial. But sewing beads on seemed like … Continue reading That’s an Idea! – Button Flip-flops
The “Broad Stripes and Bright Stars” shirt
Happy Independence Day to all in the US! I pray it's not terribly hot and we don't get the same storms that have been moving through the DC area in the past few days. Friday we got a gnarly storm called a "Derecho" late Friday evening. I had never even heard of one before that … Continue reading The “Broad Stripes and Bright Stars” shirt
Craft and Wine Night: Our past fun
I'm currently house-sitting and without super crafting supplies, so I thought I'd do a throw-back. Luckily I did bring my crocheting, so I'll be able to handle that for the time-being. There are kitties in my midst and I am not sure if they fall into the stereotypical realm in their love for yarn... so … Continue reading Craft and Wine Night: Our past fun
