Don’t Be Alarmed!!
I don’t be alarmed, but MY CRAFT room is clean and organized. I EVEN sorted my vinyls!! WHAT?!!? Yup, yup. I also realized I have more vinyl than Michael’s Craft Store does. Oh-Oh! I guess I’ll have to make more t-shirts! Please LORD do not let Alice grow out of funny, cute, glittery t-shirts anytime soon!! PLEASE! I’ve also added Resin pouring to my list of things I always wanted to try and never did. Here is what I have learned. Ummmm bubbles are NOT easy to get rid of!! Stir too fast. BUBBLES. Pour too fast.

May 3rd Photo-A-Day C
Today’s Photo-A-Day is C for Connie. Except I hate taking my picture! My nose always looks like it’s 10 times to big for my face. C for candy. Except that I really have too much candy around and well, it would make you guys so hungry! C for coffee. That would have been wayyyyy to easy because where I am there is coffee. Instead I picked cotton. Not like cotton clothing, although there is nothing better than a vintage, soft cotton t-shirt. Not cotton balls which I seem to go through a ton of every month. But I chose cotton tufts also known as cotton boll! The kind you decorate…

Day 18 Photo-A-Day Something I made
Day 18 of my very own personal Photo-A-Day challenge. For the month of March I am posting pictures from inside my HUGE craft-room. This is helping me get motivated to blog more often and share what an amazing space I have been blessed with. I’m enjoying sharing my treasures with you and I’m seriously thinking of continuing into April. I will share pictures of the inside of the rest of the house. Whaddya think? Then May the outside of the house? June could be the town of Sandpoint? This might just work! Yes, these pictures show you what a hoarder, collector and wack-a-doddle I am. Now in my defense my…

ImaginativeU Ready-to-Use Activity Kits For Kids Age 4-10 #Review
I am so disappointed that this business no longer exists. It makes me so sad. This was such a fun kit. However, Etsy to the rescue. There are plenty to choose from. I went a little overboard with pictures again, but Alice and I had so much fun with our ImaginativeU Ready To Use Activity Kit!! Watching 3-year-old Alice during the week includes a lot of play time, crafts and of course I have to throw in some learning time too. I absolutely LOVE to watch Alice’s face light up when I tell her it’s craft time!! It’s a huge bonus when I combine learning time with craft time! Usually,…
