I haven't posted any of these in a while, mostly because i've been a Bad Auntie and have been slacking on making cool toys for the flock. But I've been busy lately and decided to share. :)

So since i've had a hell of a time finding pretty hair sticks for my waist-length hair that aren't ugly plastic rhinestone yuck, or wicked expensive, i decided to make my own! :)

I made some laundry soap today... it takes 24 hours to cool and "set up" so we'll see how it comes out. Great scent though! I have all these bottles of body splash that i like NEVER use because they fade so fast. I've had one of BBW Cucumber and green tea that i've had for years, so i opened it up and dumped it in. So at least my laundry will smell ( Read more... )

 Me again! Thanks to everyone who responded to my jeans post here.  I AM going to make a jean quilt, and have been getting beat up, torn, splattered and tattered jeans from people i know for the project. :)

But i did something else, too. I've been meaning to make a bag for my yoga mat, but just hadn't gotten around to it yet. In the other post, i ( Read more... )

So i developed my pics and am BUMMED because they all came back dark and blah. But you'll still get the general idea.

What's up with THAT? Naming a Hippo after me! I resent that! It's not like it's "Heather the Hare" or something. I'm insulted. :P

Oh well. At least she's a CUTE hippo!

 So i made a quilt for my brother for his birthday December 10th. Unfortunately, my sewing machine went kaput so i had to HAND SEW the entire thing, which means it wasn't ready until Christmas. haha. So i gave it to him today. 
As you can see, it was pre-loved, courtesy of my "helpers". :)

So it's almost 40 degrees here today! How exciting! haha. Actually it is, because my apartment is SO stale and kinda stinky. :/ That's the downside of having 3 cats... they poop a lot!! So i'm airing out the apartment for a little bit... i opened up two windows, and i'm going to keep them open for 10-15 mins if i can stand it. It smells better ( Read more... )

So, there's like 10 days till Christmas and i have SOOOO many projects to finish!!! :( I can't wait till i'm more financially stable and can afford to actually BUY some presents instead of having to make them ALL. I mean, i know homemade is nice, but sometimes i'd rather have time to do things for ME that I enjoy rather than spending all of my free ( Read more... )
