i'm a slacker

i didn't post yesterday and this post will be half hearted at best. depression is trying to get the best of me today. i really hope it doesn't win. i decorated my cube in an attempt to force myself to cheer up. i've got snowflakes i cut out and a tree i made out of paper, tape, some glue, a chopstick, some cardboard and some thumbtacks. its decorated with lanterns cut out of the chopstick wrapper and a small origami star. i brought my angel cat skelanimal to work today to also assist me with the christmas cheer. so anyways, i'm going to make like a tree and get the hell off of here.

to-do tuesday

here are some of the projects i would like to make, i am hoping that sharing them here will help me keep track of the links, instead of always digging in my email, and also hold me accountable/keep me from procrastinating.


this wreath is just cool. i am having trouble finding the square stryofoam wreaths though, any ideas?

just awesome.

a rather ambitious entry in my to-do list, i love this as much for the design as i do the name. it evokes all sorts of fun images in my head. i think i want to make it in the brightest red i can find.

these are adorable, i think i'd like to make them with my nieces.

we have no tree this year but that doesn't stop me from my neverending desire to make cute ornaments. i blame my mom as ever year as a kid we made handmade ornaments as teacher gifts.


in other news, i forgot how much i like cracker barrel. they even have a smoking section. i plan on going there soon for some roast beef.

i've been working on a few specials projects. over the weekend i started my presents for my lovely and beautiful nieces, and yesterday i started some presents for a couple of our good friends. i'm so excited to get everything done, but any pictures may have to wait til after christmas, so i can make sure that no surprises are spoiled.

i am hoping to get some christmas decor up today. i've been quite lazy about it.

anyway, thats about it. later on!

07 December 2009

so i have decided on somewhat of a format for the blog, using alliteratively titled theme days. here is what i have so far:

to-do tuesday (project and the like that i want to do)
wish list wednesday (or maybe wednesday wants)
finished fridays (my finished craft projects for the week)

and then maybe sunday smiles or something.

got any more suggestions for me?



okay, now onto other business. started my christmas crafts this weekend. do you know how annoying it is to try to find square stryofoam wreath bases? i have this project that i would love to do but couldn't find all the parts i need. also this weekend i watched 500 days of summer. great soundtrack, pretty good movie,

maybe i'll do an "about me" post later today or something. just so you know who i am, though i imagine that most people reading this already know.

thats all for now.
