Fabric Balls

My latest weekend craft involved ping pong balls given to me by Amy and fabric that I got from Gern. Let me tell yall! The finished project was very cute but that was only a whole bag of glue sticks and a couple of burnt fingers later, lol. I made some for a present that I am giving and I also made a few more! I'm so thankful for Amy! She always gives me good stuff and

she has the best ideas =)I have sitting in my kitchen. It was filled with Christmas ball ornaments that I forgot to put away, hehe. There's always one thing I forget to put away each year. Last year, it was all the Christmas magnet's on the refridgerator.

Another window pane

I finally got around to cleaning up another of the window panes that I got from Papaw's shed. I was going to put some kind of scrapbook paper behind the glass but I think I like the simplicity of no paper much better. I don't want to overdue my living room considering I already have one window in my living room.The star was another $1.99 Stars and Stripes star I picked up at Bealls Outlet on clearance after July 4th. I loved how the paint started to smear after a couple of coats, showing the dark blue underneath. I think it makes it look more rustic!

Editing HTML....

Oh wee! I have changed my blog around all night, literally. I never get a chance to play around with my blog, not only because of fear, lol, but because it is time consuming. So all night is a literal term I am using here =) I went from having a black, white, and sage green theme using Kevin and Amanda's tutorial (which is great, bty) to using SJH Blog Design instructions and a completely different blog background, which are more time consuming and technical, in my opinion, but becomes easier and lets you get the feel for html. OKAY, so enough with messing with this "junque." I am tired, lol. More to come when I go replace my defective spray paint for my tiered tray =)

Changed my blog template...

This is big news, family!!! I have been scared to mess with my former blog template because it was such a process to make it. I used a different tutorial to do this one and there are still some things that I want to tweak. When I see it on my screen, I can't see the green on the sides until I maximize the window. My old blog tutorial showed me how to scale that automatically despite the window size...but like I said, that was a HUGE project that took ALL day at work, lol. I'd love to hear comments because I saved my old template just in case I feel like I miss it or start to dislike this newer, more simplistic one... Also, the template I used was from Kevin and Amanda.

Wooden Letter Initials... (Con't)

Okay, I finished Kelsea and Kylee's initials for their bedroom. I'm glad they're done with although I think I'm going to make one for my brothers lil girl, Kayleigh (there's a lot of K names in the family, lol). In addition, I played around with the photo editor GIMP, which is a lot like a poor people Photoshop, that is just as nifty =) So I played around with GIMP

and color selecting...

Got this idea from my friend, Amy, over at Crafty ADHD, who also gave me

You're the best, Amy!
