Operation: Fancify Desk

As of today, my daughter is 6 years old. I saved one of her old formula cans and have been using it to store a couple of my crafting supplies. The other day it occurred to me I should at least make it pretty as I do have to look at it everyday. Also, my crafting/work desk in in my master bedroom and I do not need any eyesores :) I painted it with white acrylic paint and lined the top and bottom with ribbon and rhinestones after a coat of glaze. I am very happy with how it turned out. 

It's all about the simple things :) 

Love. Peace. Happiness.

Mom's Day 2013

Happy (belated) Mom's Day!!! 

Above are some dishcloths/pot holders I crocheted for my lovely momma.

I used Lily's Sugar and Cream Cotton Yarn, the pattern can be found here. (Thank you Apple Blossom Dreams!) Pattern is very simple and this project is ubber quick to complete.

Side Note: I am in LOVE with the texture of these cloths. They are perfect for the real dirty work, I am all for saving elbows here :) 

Love. Peace. Happiness.

Life...

I've been away for a while but been very busy and unfortunately not so much busy crafting :(

On Friday 10/21 after a FANTASTIC first Parent/Teacher Conference at my daughters school we decided to take the Ferry and spend the day in Larkspur/ Marin. Beautiful weather and beautiful scenery.

About 2weeks ago, I lost my wallet :( I'm not even sure exactly where it was lost, but after calling all the different places I was at multiple times, I considered it a loss and bought a cute new one :)

Only sad part now is all the cards I need to replace. I'm about half done with that part now.

While browsing in the beauty section of Target I stumbled across a great deal on something I have never owned...

My very first Eyeshadow Palette! Created by E.L.F., sold at $10, with 100 different, beautiful colors! I have been having a little too much fun with this I must admit :)

With Halloween coming up we painted some miniature pumpkins that my dad bought for Riya. She loved it and got pretty messy but its a nice decoration to the porch.

Love. Peace. Happiness.
