bangle sale!

I couldn't resist buying out all of the wooden bangle bracelets marked 90% percent off at my local craft store last weekend. I busted out the Modge Podge and decided to decoupage the bracelet with an old magazine I wanted to cut up.

So here you have it! I may even list it on Etsy!!

shrinky dinky dinky doo!

My new found love... shrink plastic. I bought some plain clear PolyShrink and have been playing with it the last few nights. Here is my first project I made...

before: 2 weird looking trees on plastic.



after: 2 little hard plastic jewels ready to be turned into earrings!

Fun times! You can get PolyShrink here.

buttons + fabric = super duper!!

I've been playing with the button maker a whole lot lately and decided to not use the clear plastic coating and throw some fabric on them... this is what I came up with.


how can you go wrong with cartoon owls?
