Bliss

With Ralexwin puttering around the house waiting for school to start I've been finding it hard to get my blogging done. READ: He keeps giving me the 'don't you have something better to do than stare at a computer screen' look.

But I can't go a day without popping in and telling you all how much I love blogging. It is so fulfilling to me and adds a dimension to my life that I think I would go crazy without. When I was a teenager I wrote and wrote and wrote... then I got married. For the longest time I associated writing with venting my emotions, which made it pretty hard to pick up a pen. However! I've grown out of that now and find myself craving all things journalistic.

Hence I love my blog.

I also love books... and libraries like this one:

P.S. Speaking of books, I'm reading a really good one--The Maze Runner. It's a definite page turner.

P.P.S. Don't forget about my new blog askcannwin.blogspot.com I'm sure you guys have some question you can come up with to send my way. Try it out... see how much fun we can have!

The problem with Anthropologie is that they cost way too much money. WAY TOO MUCH! I mean, come on--these book boxes: source: Anthropologie Cost $68-$188! Do you have that kind of money? I don't, but you know what I do have? I have a library with a cart full of free books that no one really cares about! So guess what I did... I made my own (and then I gave them away because I really don't have anywhere to put them). Here's how. What do you think?

Altered Shoe Art: Ring Holder Shoe Tutorial

Image
This was my week two craft for So You Think You're Crafty. I placed third that week for this one. I thought you might enjoy finding out how I made it. I tried about a million different decorations before settling on one that didn't drown out my rings. I wanted them to the focal point. This is also why I went with black fabric and not something more vivid. Don't be intimidated by the lack of 101 I'm giving you. It really is a straight forward sort of project. If you know how to use a glue gun without burning yourself you can do this. Just be sure to dust off your imaginative brain space first. :) The one important thing you might be wondering is how I got the pink fabric to stick to the shoe. I really just Mod Podged it on. There are several different ways to make ring tubes that you can find online. One I saw used that colored foam paper stuff that you find in the kids craft section. I thought that might have been easier, but I had scraps o

Mutterings of a Middle-Aged Dreamer

Image
Use your words, my dear sweet soul, they are inside of you... So find them. Write, you silly girl, write so hard the world will never forget you. But does it matter if the world remembers you?  Age begins to press its hands upon your chest and the need to be remembered seems to increase with the pressure.  Stop. That's not a line of thought you're interested in pursuing.  Live in the now. Does it matter if the world remembers you if your neighbor is going hungry?  Perhaps age is merely pushing you out the door.  Go. Live in the now.
