Michaels
I went with my mom to her class a couple of days ago. It would make it my third time going with her. I went the first week so I could keep her car out of sight of the campus ticketers. She doesn't have a decal yet. The Second week the same thing. This time I went because I needed to get spray paint from Micheals Arts and Crafts store to color these soda tin flowers I made for my boyfriend and mom for Valentines day. I also wanted to eat at a particular store in that city too.
I go into Micheals and the next thing I know, I'm coming out with 3 skeins of yarn on top of the spray paint I wanted. I got purple and red. So I have all this yarn at home but I couldn't resist gettign more yarn because it's typically $3.49 a skein. Micheals was having a one day sale for this yarn at $1.99! This particular yarn Impeccable is very soft and good quality. How could I turn that down?
So these flowers are turning out better than I expected. The first couple flowers I created I had to figure out how to make them. Thus they are kinda sloppy but still look good when spray painted.
Here is the site that gave me the inspiration.

In other news, I finally got an invite into http://pinterest.com. I'm particularly drawn to the arts and crafts and recipes posted on the site. Someone described pinterest as such:
"Pinterest is a virtual pinboard. I like to compare to a binder that you would use to store all the awesome ideas you found in magazines. Instead of keeping a binder full of magazine pages it is all virtual."
