I was the biggest slacker in 2013. No blogging. House projects all over the place. Crafting was not really consistent. I did blog a bit, and had some great pins. Some from 2013 and some from before, but surprisingly there was quite a bit on traction on Pinterest. So here are my top pins from 2013. DIY Honey Wedding Favors - Everyone loves honey and weddings it seems. DIY Hangover Kit - My followers are … [Read more...]
pinterest additct – pinterest resolutions 2013
Happy New Year!! Last January I decided to give myself Pinterest resolutions. Maybe it was my way of justifying my pinning habit ;) but since I don't do real resolutions, I figured it would be fun. While I didn't tackle every resolution, I did make good progress so I'm planning the same for this year. It might just get me to have regular appearances around these parts again. For 2013, I'm recycling a few from last year and adding some more. Get more daring with my sewing skills on some … [Read more...]

Sprinkles seemed like an amazing addition to the chocolate goodness I … [Read more...]

grad school = unfinished projects but lots of pinning
I have a good 5 or 6 projects in some stage of progress scattered around my craft room and the supplies for a couple of others stored away. Why does grad school have to get in the way? This week was horrendous but hopefully I'll get into a groove and finish up everything this weekend. Only 42 more days, only 42 more days. If I keep repeating that, I might make it to the end with whatever shreds of sanity I still have left. Besides the obscene amount of Halloween stuff I'm still working on here … [Read more...]
