I love Etsy. Whenever I get bored, I’m usually window shopping there. So much creativity in one place! Also a lot of really crappy stuff, but I’ll leave the commentary on those items to Regretsy (another site I spend a lot of time on when I’m bored). This week while looking [...]

I’ve made a foray into amigurumi recently. I have an idea for a huge project for after I finish working on The Gearheart, but I’ve gotta design some amigurumi for it. It’s a lot harder than it looks! I have made a head (whoopty doo, it’s just a ball) and I’ve been [...]

This was definitely the most fun cross stitch I have ever done. Alex said he wanted “retro-fabulous” colors, and these are the ones he chose. I was a little skeptical at first, but it turned out great! And of course he loves it.
There are more pictures over [...]

So my apologies for not having a finished craft with this post. I’m getting ready to head out of state for the yearly family reunion, and I have of course, put everything off until the last minute. So here’s a teaser for ya:

My husband has learned that if there is something in the [...]

You may remember a picture of my DS in yesterday’s post about making a lightbox. Well, today I gave her a makeover:

Here’s a different shot that’s more girly. I love that lightbox.
My original plan was much different, but due to materials and my own ignorance, I ended up with this. [...]

I may not be able to play D&D anymore, but I can still participate.
I submit for your approval, d20 cookies!

Other photos at Flickr. Not nearly as many as I would like to have, though because the lighting in this place stinks. Damn smelly lights!
Ever since I had the Professor, it has become near [...]
